There is no doubting the progress that Guiseley have made on the pitch since the cash injection of the new owners and the management of Steve Kittrick but now huge steps are being made away from the playing side.

Nethermoor is under development and the club are expecting the work on their second seated stand to be completed tomorrow.

March 31 is the deadline for improvements necessary for the club to achieve the ground-grading guidelines set down by the Conference League, sponsored by Blue Square Bet.

As a promoted club to the Blue Square Bet North Division last season, the Lions were allowed to have temporary extra seating so that they could compete in the play-offs.

By this campaign’s end-of-season extras, they were required to have permanent seating in place.

Visitors to the ground this term will have seen that the work, partly funded by grants after the club raised enough of their own money to qualify for the funding, will have seen the structure taking place and the seats are now fitted.

The club posted views of the new stand on their website this week and announced that the “finishing touches” would be added before tomorrow night’s cut- off time.

They have also gone on-line with their club shop. People can now buy all things Guiseley via a link on their website.

The on-line shop has been launched in partnership with kit sponsors Pendle and the merchandise. including football kit, polo shirts and tracksuits. can be personalised with adhesive letters at the customer's request.

Should the club gain promotion to the Blue Square Bet Premier, that will be a bonus feature as the players will be required to have squad numbers and their names on their shirts, just as the clubs in the Football League have to.
