Meadow Lane: Healthy...
Notts County take the title this week with a healty Meadow Lane..."
"NOTTS COUNTY FOOTBALL CLUB PRESS RELEASEMeadow Lane was today given a clean bill of health by Nottingham City Council, the ground safety authority.
Safety issues were raised during a Council inspection in January and outlined in a report to the club on February 3.
But as chairman John Armstrong-Holmes explained: “The vast majority have now been dealt with and in many instances, that was done prior to us receiving the report.”
A letter received today by the chairman from Catrin Styles, Environmental Health Officer for the Council’s Health & Safety Enforcement Team, confirmed that concerns have now been removed.
She wrote: “I would like to confirm that I have received satisfactory documentation from the stadium manager Greg Smith, confirming the completion of inspections and remedial works to the installation electrics, lifts and immediate structural works identified within the structural survey report.”
Armstrong-Holmes today slammed the Nottingham Evening Post for their coverage of the issue, describing it as: “Extremely irresponsible reporting.”
He added: “Supporters need to know that the Post went ahead and printed the story in sensational fashion, working with a leaked copy of the report, when they knew full well that things had moved on."
