So we only improve things when we are forced to P&M
Sounds a bit Sheff Wednesday to me
How does the present day West Stand shape up to the Taylor Report?
We aren't exactly spending a fortune on players or the ground so what are we doing with all this cash?

It must fit football LG safety standards otherwise it'd be shut.

If we had an average attendance of 20k it'd be worth doing Exile cos it'd pay for itself quicker. As it stands we could comfortably accommodate home fans in 3 sides of the ground. The West stands not deemed unsafe so to me it's not a priority. Rebuilding it would be pointless cos it only gets a quarter full at present. Its like a single bloke living in a 4 bed detached house. Pointless and a waste of space

Exile mate I'm sure I don't have to spell it out to you !! You read the posts like us all , this crank Gunt goes beyond the boundaries , i have never had or will have time for the likes of him and all his Racist guffaw , :mad:

Back to original post please , upgrade and like Mesta A sed keep and renovate the Gantry / Dormer , and a new roof and improve and renew seating areas ! Sir Norman Rimington Stand would be a great gesture for himself and his family , A great man who gave everything to our club :heart:

True but the west stand is starting to cost money just to keep it open .

It's like having an oldish car , there comes a point when you have to think is it viable to keep spending brass every year to keep it running .

Tha wants to carm darn a bit old lad thall be mekkin thissen badly the way thaz gooin on. Like. ;D

When we were young kids, me & r kid used to go with r dad (& his best Nate, Maurice) into the "stand" and pay an extra 6d (not 6p) to go up to the seats (& get a cushion) - many, many years we were there (until the East Stand opened and we got season tickets there) - so ... We both have many memories of it (I'm 63 & he's 59), find, fond memories .... We need to move forward and get a new stand (if the finance is there)
