I was down at the ground a week or so ago and they were working on the Pontoon roof.

Well if anyone is going to the open day tomorrow, you will be able to see first hand what's going on, and ask a few questions to those in the know, perhaps.

Quoted from HerveJosse
Is a safety certificate not needed for pre season friendlies?

Replace with roof with clear PVC, let lots of light in and nice and warm (greenhouse style) in summer or stick solar panels on top save on the bills

I know we are constantly talking about capacity increase .

Is there no way the pontoon can go a bit further back and add a few rows , or/and have less aisles to have seats , also just fill in the gaps where there are  no seats at the back ?

Any further back and it'll be hanging over the back gardens on Blundell Ave. and I doubt putting seats in the empty sections on the back row would yield any more than 50 seats.

I've always thought the only way to increase capacity would be to purchase the houses behind the Main Stand on Harrington Street, then demolish the Main Stand, despite it's history, demolish the houses and build a big new stand in their place.


And when you fall back into the mud it hurts a lot.
No! None of it was true, none of those things we thought we could see existed at all.
All that was really there was still more misery

If the previous regime had the foresight to do this, then we would be in an excellent position now to build a new stand.



You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time
