Listen sunbeam, it's so long since any fornicator went up to the top of those rusty towers we call floodlights then anything is possible especially as someone somewhere will be looking for reasons to prevent any changes being made

If so they are very naive.



Won’t be too long before a leccy Bill from JF pops through their door 😄


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Anyway.....whatever work is going to take place, needs to start happening pretty soon.

I am wondering what the plan of attack is going to be. The lamps are currently fixed to a steel frame which is attached to the pylon.

The frame needs to come down first followed by whatever part of the pylon they have decided to remove. Are they then going to reattach the steel frame to the reduced in  height pylon? (which probably wont look all that bad ...imo)... or will they just hang the lamps on to the tops of the pylon ( like Workington did to theirs in the late 80s.....and looked totally rubbish....imo).

Whatever it is they are going to do, it wont be a five minute job.

Anybody else got any thoughts?

Really disappointed but floodlight gate isn't going to happen.....elf and safe will deem it too dangerous to climb the pylons and the club won't pay for scaffolding......another PR disaaaaaarst.

As daft as it seems, it doesn’t look like anyone considered any of that in the inner halls of Fenty Towers.

Taking down the old floodlights is going to be long winded and tricky, fraught with elf n safety risks. Who’d have thunk it.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

A local scaffolding company have done a lot of work at BP over the years and a lot of it for no cost due to the owners Dad being a massive Town fan when he was alive.
