The sol improvements



It’s a shame that the facilities in the West Stand, black cats bar etc, can’t be replicated throughout the ground, with the same type of thing on the concourse.

Since I moved over here I’ve been astonished at the differences between stadiums here and the UK

This is Houston’s

I went to Fenway Park in Boston a few years back whilst on honeymoon, just got cheap seats in the bleachers as I wasn't convinced the wife would sit out the entire game, but even the concourses there, the oldest ground in the MLB, were lightyears ahead of the SoL both in size/space and bars.

As has been suggested, if they could redbuild the outer walls/gates back to make more room that would be ideal. The "fanzone" was a good idea in principle, but poorly implemented. Make that a more permanent area, wall it off etc. Maybe even build a "Club Bar" or something. Could keep this open for halftime and even after the game, drinks offers at the bar, bands on, at least try to extend the matchday experience and give people a reason to stay and spend money on site.
 
Get the concourses looking good all the way round. I remember going in the West stand once and it was a different world compared to the East. Maybe extend them back a bit so they are bigger although that could be pointlessly expensive. They need to get decent contractors in that supply decent food and drink rather than the cans we get poured into plastic cups and the shit selections. Getting some local micro breweries onboard would be good

Agree. The east stand concourse is not fit for purpose for big crowds, extend it out as far as the roof overhang and have plate glass type elevations with past player mural artwork on them.
 
Those "acne ridden halfwits" are just trying to do a thankless task of a job, serving pissed up football fans for shit wages. A job that you would turn probably your nose up at so give them a break.

Do you look down on cleaners and road sweepers too?
The catering staff in SOL are particularly stupid, slow and incompetent though. Even worse than KFC staff. They need some training and managers who hold them to account.
 
Need a Giant net over the away stand to stop dick heads throwing shit down at the home fans... Cough Portsmouth fans Cough
 
There's nothing "faux rage" about it. I just don't like condescending no marks belittling people who do thankless tasks.

There's nothing "faux" about that.

Interesting that your response to this was to be condescending yourself you absolute whopper. Fuck off with your holier than thou shite eh?
 
There doesn't seem to be any recent submissions of an application for the academy so it's probably just maintenance,hopefully it will be the same at the Sol, even tho im sure I remember the previous chairman taking a £10m 'investment' to fix the stadium
