    Not sure if anyone from the club will see this - but the trough of the urinals has been blocked for a few weeks now. When it gets to half time, p!ss just overflows all over the floor. It’s the opposite end to the sinks, on the inner wall.

    Unless it’s something major, it just needs rodding I’d guess. Needs sorting asap though, as it’s a real mess.

    Same as it ever was but half the people who use the West Stand won't have it touched as it's iconic. :rolleyes:

    It's the same piss from decades ago, it's just starting to back-flow from the closed off end of the stand.
    Take a sample, you might find some old Sam Smiths or Davenports or Kia-ora in there.
    You didn't happen to see a bit of Wrigleys spearmint bobbing on the surface ? Mine from circa 1970.
    Still got a bit of mintiness left in it I'll be bound.

    Back in the early 80s, when I was a St John Ambulance cadet, a couple of the volunteers had to wade into the urine lake in the West Stand Bogs to a casualty, who was lying unconscious in the middle of it. I can’t remember what the cause of his unconsciousness was, but I do remember wondering if he was going to become the world’s first person to drown in urine.

    I wonder if my green and yellow spotted boxer shorts were ever recovered from the West Stand 5hit house?

    Yeah, to an extent. But it’s actually got worse now. Can only wade so much before it goes over the old boots.

    Maybe Hazmat suits & waders in club colours could be made available at the club shop?

    This is a good news story. Shows the West Stand coming back into use. I expect to see a press release from YT anytime soon.
