The BBC has reported that the minutes of a Sheffield City Council safety meeting says so far there is no reassurance that the stand roof is safe after corrosion was discovered in the structure.

Our Championship home fixtures are scheduled to start against Stoke on August 16 but a safety certificate is still required and the club and city council are expected to give an update in the near future.
