Ah gotcha mate, do you remember what the paint thing was? I vividly remember it being covered at the fans forum


It's something like because of the wind/salt from the sea is erroding some of the structures so they need that paint putting on them , I'm assuming the findus is the priority for the magic paint hence needing the cherry pickers/scaffolding etc .

I'm not sure you could pay me enough to spend my working day on scaffolding on the Findus roof! The thought of it terrifies me and it'll be cold up there in August.


Miss Scunthorpe. Not a beauty pageant, just sound advice.

Just a point, couldn't Town get a grant for some/most of the work ? Surely they don't have to pay for it all.

What we don't fund

Although our funding approach is flexible, there are some things we simply don’t cover:

    Facilities that are not available for community use
    Kit and equipment
    Projects intended for private gain
    Projects outside England
    Retrospective funding (for works that have already started or been completed)
    Routine maintenance and repairs resulting from wear and tear and not part of a grass pitch improvement programme
    Facility hire

It’s got something to do with fire protection on the steel in the upper so assume it’s the same in the main

It could well be, I remember that price point being branded around. I thought it was the main stand as that work was due to be done last summer but was put off till this as we was eligible for some sort of funding that makes it cheaper?


Maybe get one on temu or wonder if we can pay for it on Klarna

Removal (or significant reduction) of the number of posts has surely got to be the top priority. I'd really like to know if this is definitely happening this summer before I renew my Season Tickets in the Main Stand.


Blimey, been sitting in the main stand for best part of 40 years, I’ll still buy my season ticket if they haven’t moved the posts as I think I’m used to them 😂🤣😂🤣. I personally love our ground as it’s full of nostalgia when I think of all the great times I’ve had. Dread the thought of moving to a ‘new’ ground. I do of course realise I’m in the minority! UTM and happy for posts to remain if we don’t have the budget to remove them!!!

A quick mention about the pitch, it’s simply superb, everyone sat around me on Saturday were marvelling about how fantastic it looked on our last home game of the season. Well done to all involved!!

Agree with everything Stockwood says there, but they surely knew that when they were sticking it all over the telegraph trying to drum up support.
