    And it doesn't need replacing.

    Have they moved your seats to the back of the stand/upstairs or something?

    They love it until it rains then they all rush to the back to try and keep dryer. Surprised when this happens stewards don't get involved and do their job of making sure they are all in the right seat like they do lads in the Ponty.

    I honestly thought you were going to wish us all a Happy Christmas!

    Happy Christmas to you from someone who has the brains not to sit out in freezing pouring rain all afternoon.

    Right. I want to see photos of Dreamboy and Supertyke watching Barnsley with no coat on whilst being snowed on then we'll see who's hardest out of us.

    Fair do's. I usually sit west lower, but looked at the weather forecast and bought tickets for west upper. Think they could re-roof the whole thing but the roof is asbetos sheet so not cheap to do anything with it. The west stand could give us a clue where the new owners are going: New stadium at junc 39 and re-named west yorkshire tigers anybody??? Thought Not. If they do something with the west stand at least we know they are sticking with oakwell

    Ours is an incredibly uncomfortable stadium. Second most important factor (after the squad not being good enough) which has persuaded me to stay away this season.

    Be good if they gave STHs the option of paying to have their seat replaced with a padded one like fans have at MK Dons.

    They would need to buy the stadium first.

    As it stands they don't own it. Unless that has been announced and I've missed it

    You have my admiration and I’ll give you my full support to pick your seat when the whole thing is bulldozed and replaced.
