You just beat me to it!
From Edmonton on COYS (normally very reliable on stadium news)
Let’s be absolutely clear that only the main board know and they are not telling anyone. The internal gossip since early October was the United game but I was clinging onto Burnley which I did hear from someone senior was the aim. The internal gossip Now is next season

If it does end up being next season i just don't know how the club and mace can get it so wrong. How could they think the opening date would be September when it would actually be almost a year longer, it doesn't make sense.
I still don't buy next season. What is so wrong with the thing that it's going to take eight months to put right and that only takes us up to the end of this season, how can they know it will take that long and if it's that bad how can they be sure they'll even get it done by then? Not to mention they seem to be pushing on with the completion, not at all like they have almost a year before the first game.
I'm still running with the idea that they are going for January and are going all out to make it look the dog's bollocks ready for the first game, so if there's going to be a delay why not turn it into a benefit as best we can.
From a football point of view it is also better for the team to play in the new stadium this season to get the teething troubles out of the way and get used to the place so they are all settled in at the start of next season.

What kind of a nightmare? Are the cables encased in concrete and we'll have to get the jack hammers in to get to them? Even if that was the case I don't see eight months of jack hammering being necessary. In fact I don't believe we'll need jack hammers at all in which case it should be even quicker.It all depends on those internal systems checks though right? If the cabling is screwed and it's a nightmare to access then it can look as finished as you like but we won't be able to move in... Or are we past those new systems checks now?

I just don't buy it sorry, I appreciate that they can't guarantee that it will be done on any certain date even if they are themselves certain, just in case there is something else they are unaware of but they have been addressing this problem for over two months so I'd hope they are beyond the scratching their heads wondering how they are going to get at the cables stage by now.

No disrespect to Edmonton but he’s barely got one thing right on the stadium so far. No idea where the concept of him being reliable comes from.
