had an idea for naming the east stand. how about The Miner's Memorial Stand. (I wasn't a miner!) i think its quite appt, what do you reckon, also why were on improvements, lets replace that tattered flag on the west stand, get some new bulbs in the score board, fill the corners in with seats, new roof on west stand, also remove botanical garden from west stand bogs, decent shirt sponsored by Nike or Umbro, cheaper tickets, but most important of all, donate all programme sales to the Help for Heroes charity, god i wish i was the owner.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You wish you were the owner?!? Then we really would be in the **** wouldn't we? Why fill the corners with seats? The ground dosn't fill as it is! The football club is a business, NOT a charity. You want donations - go to Barnados - NOT Barnsley... Nice ethics though. If I were the owner - I'd personally spend the majority of the money on players.
RE: You wish you were the owner?!? it is nice to have a dream though, what did i expect, some whinging tw*t straight back at me with common sense, are you one of the booers.
So.. Spend money on a better kit maker, fill the corners in with seats (even though we haven't filled the ground for ages), and re-roof the West Stand. And then.. give programme funds away and lower ticket prices. I think that would put us in.. administration. (blagger)
"get some new bulbs in the score board" As i understand it, the parts required to repair the scoreboard are no longer available so we would need to buy a new scoreboard completely. Not sure it's got that bad yet.
The parts required come from New York... Our scoreboard was part of one of the New York baseball teams. During the admin days the bloke came over from NY to repair it and we failed to pay so the next time he was over he removed some of the fuses which is why it was part of it was blank some games. There you go full of useless crap.
look at us cornering the housing market. That pun should go down in history. I think we should replace the scoreboard with a Starbucks.
Replace the East Stand with a big 'Subway', shoot the little racist ***** that sit in the Ponty and replace Gordon Shepherd with Metal Mickey, job done.
I like the fact that you're replacing Gordon with an early 80's icon. It's in line with todays fashion. Maybe we could put a white shirt, black cardigan and a thin black tie on Metal Mickey as well and get him to sing Jam songs at half time, 'That's Entertainment' perhaps? only in a robot voice.
Marvellous. And Dennis Souza, Heinz Muller and Andy Johnson in a tribute to the original Bananarama ? Given their respective hairstyles.
