    For me the gradually worsening faded lettering has been an embarrassment for at least 2/3 years and a metaphor for the Conway/Lee regime's under-investment in the fabric of the ground. If it's being replaced then it'll be another very welcome small indicator of change. Assuming of course it isn't replaced at all - which would be even worse!

    Young Nudger is already on his way there with his hammer, a bag of nails, and his Yorkshire Tykes lettering.

    What's betting the new letters don't match the size of the old ones and you can still see the old faded ones behind, like all the overpainted words in the east stand concourse.

    Maybe they’re just re-coating the old ones?
