Pink seats fading rapidly

Took me back this post. Remember the owner getting our fans to change the seats and some people announcing, "we've got our club back"

I'm glad them days are just memories.

Still never quite got the stick at this mind. People wanted to volunteer to help, club saved some money. Felt like win, win.

It's not for me mind, but it was hardly a Hunger Games style raffle for season ticket holders :lol:

Although thank fuck they've fucked off now, I actually think this is one of the rare things they didn't massively fuck up.

Just watched the highlights of the U21 game and the seats are getting worse in colour, especially behind the North stand goal...too used to seeing them full now so got a good look at them

Think the seat colouring, wording etc. needs a complete overhall next summer - the white corners need to go also

The white corners at least don’t fade… red seats are just an overhead. They’re always gonna fade.

I always think of the fan installers .... and one young lad who did loads of shifts .

Luke onien ( newly signed) did a shift ... and paired with a older bloke who didn't know who he was... he told O9 something along the lines of never heard of you and maybe you'll be remembered for this.

Luke laughed it off... typically

Some journey from here to there ....an odyssey of sorts

Agree - especially about the white corners.

The ones Short done in the east stand are still doing well mind - the ones Donald put in look awful. I can remember him bragging on twitter at the time about how great they were 😂

I do wonder if we could cover the east stand or something as those seats are the ones always exposed to sunlight. We’re never gonna stop them fading if we stick with red seats it’s just the nature of the plastics and direct sunlight. A cover could save them and maybe cost effective over a period of time.

Speaking as part of the East Stand Ultras I would suggest a padded and maybe heated arrangement please.
