I prefer the old one.



Agreed. What is their ambition for next season?

What’s happening with the rest of the works to the stadium:

- Grafitti in concourse, this particularly lends itself to the south stand;
- Decorating the concrete facade facing the pitch in the upper concourse adjacent to the branch flags?

A new one: can they consider encouring the tv cameras to move to the east stand this capturing the full extent of our stadium? It looks vast and quite amazing from the opposite side. Boro adopted this approach and it looks a different class imo. Much better as an advert for the club. You could be looking at Stoke or Southampton’s stadium as it stands.

It only looks imposing if there are people in the top concourse otherwise it looks half empty imo.

All good points.
 
Creating a 'pen' outdoors for the dirty addicts to smoke at half time. Pointless trying to eradicate from the bogs. Might be a canny atmosphere as well for those who want to drink outdoors

Suppose we already have one with the fanzone, only really need to put a fence round it before half time and open the gates in the east/south east corner. Would reduce the crowding in the concourses and sell more food and drink.
 
Are they aware that the SOL roof leaks when it rains?

Could we have the half time scores and full time scores on the scoreboard. Hard to check with lack of wi fi.

On a similar note, can we make better use of the scoreboard? Rather than display the team on one slide can we have a pic or better still sky style walk on image. At half-time as well as other HT scores how about highlights of our last game?
Anything to replace the drudgery of watching the crossbar challenge.

When can we expect to be able to use debit/credit cards to purchase food and drink in the stadium or when will more cash machines be installed?

There's one cash machine outside and it's the 21st century.

You could use contactless in NS on Saturday gone.

Absolutely second this! I work 2 on 2 off and miss loads of matches due to being at work but I’d love a season ticket to be able to accumulate points.

It’s not worth me buying 2 cards for me and our lass(no) for both to only go to half the matches (she won’t go on her own), but we both go to away matches as well as Home and struggle for tickets.

Would definitely be interested in this!

She can come with me the weeks you are working away mate if ye like.
 
All great stuff so far - but I'd like to know some of the below too. Some may have already been asked/covered but....

Are they considering moving away fans back to the lower bowl from next season? (I'd be for this)

Will the stadium be given a proper jet wash - roof in particular?

Plans to fix the PA/sound system in the South/S East corner?

Are they already doing, or planning on starting Quinny type roadshows around the N East to try and encourage the waverers back into the fold?

Will the catering options be looked into/improved - and will this include kiosks that accept bank card/contactless.
 
Can we get one of those flags that hang down in the concourse with Defoe’s name on it. Not sure who the latest player is on them. They must be filthy an all. Never been washed.

Its mentioned in another post, the lack of phone connectivity within the stadium on a matchday. It doesnt work full stop at half time..cannot check scores, bets etc..
Click to expand...

I once found out the reason why, but as is often the case with my frazzled memory, I've forgotten!
I'll ask again on Wednesday.

Butters said:
What are the plans for memberships or season tickets for exiles? I've had to give up my season ticket due to working away a month at a time. Would they consider offshore season tickets similar to what Aberdeen do, or a membership scheme where it's still possible to use accumulated loyalty points?

Good question mate. I'll put it to them.

Contactless payment was definitely available last match, as I used it myself.
Alas, by usual excuse for not getting the halftime beers in has gone up in smoke!

New question: is it true that Ross has limited access to the production crew of the second series to the Netflix documentary?

Are we taking advantage of the global exposure if it is being released in the US, if so, how?

Archibald Leitch lattice work in car park. Could it have a more prominent place in the stadium?

I'd also love to see it in the stadium.

Ask them what the plan is for next season if we get promoted, just something I have been thinking lately.

I'll try and work a question in about what they're hoping to achieve over the next few years.

Thank you, like i said its just something i been thinking about lately, as i assume, they must be in the planning stage at the moment, given our position in the league.

They are planning on unveiling the first new mural/artwork in The South Stand on Boxing Day, and depending on how its received, this will lead to lots more, to add more identity to the place.

And I 100% agree about the camera giving a better appearance of the stadium/crowd if it were on the other side. Not sure how feasible it would be, but there's no harm in asking.
What's other peoples opinions?

Can we sort out the music before the match, neither nowt nor summat at the moment. Speakers in South Stand seemed improved last week mind.

In what way mate?

Its definitely something that's been mentioned a few times before. I'll see if there's any updates.

I'll find out why they no longer put them up.

Moving the away fans was brought up the last meeting. I'll see if there are any updates.

I'll query the rest.

I'll see what the latest is with the documentaries.

I'd suggest this is something to get in touch with the club yourself about, with it being so particular.
