Quoted from White_shorts
I haven't been in the Upper Findus for many years.  I assume this refers to the toilets on the ground floor.  It's an improvement, but still not ideal.  There must be a huge triangular space directly below the upper seats.  The top tier should have originally been built with a refreshment concourse and conveniences at the same level.

This application should not necessarily mean the owners have no intention of relocating.  They might just want to attract potential supporters who have been put off by toilet queues.


If we’re stuck with Blundell Park (and we are, let’s be honest) then as an Upper regular I can confirm these changes are necessary. I’ve never been in the women’s toilets, but honestly I can guess that there simply aren’t enough bogs in there. The blokes urinals are appallingly small and there’s one sh#tter, which is preposterous. The amount of times I see a dad with his young kid waiting for the trap to become free is just not on. BP is a joke, for things like this. Good news the owners are trying to sort that kind of thing out.

But, my god, this doesn’t even scratch the surface.

I give it around 6 posts before it become another stating the obvious thread about BP not being fit thread, good to see the owners trying to do stuff.

I covered both of those statements! Yes, BP is shite. Yes, it’s good the owners are doing something, albeit baby steps.

Much needed this. I’ve been moaning about the layout in the lower entrance for years. Hopefully, the next step will be to remove the wall in between the trust bar and  where the turnstiles are, make it a big open area.

Yep, and the service is well organised and quick. Foods shite though.

That is what I was thinking. Such a minor improvement but great for all concerned yet there is so many hoops to jump through, and architects involved in simply extending the facilities that are already there within the stadium. No wonder so little gets done.
