Question What would you want from the new stadium?

[united we stand]

On top of the good things already mentioned, especially some sort of museum dedicated to Roots Hall, I'd like there to be something that fans can purchase like a engraved brick or something that's placed on the fans walkway or one of the walls of the ground itself.

You should also be able to purchase your old seat from RH, I know many other clubs have done this in the past.

This post reminded me…….
Many years ago rob did a stadium presentation at the royals. After the presentation were some good big picture questions about the stadium ( we didn’t have the detail then we do now) followed by:
Can I buy my seat
And if my memory serves correctly “ why is isnt Johnny herd starting” or something equally irrelevant

Need some sort of "roots hall glasses" from the club shop.

Like these but with vertical lines.

Shouldn't those be blue tinted?

Adequate access roads.
Decent bars with local beers (inc big screen showing past games/highlights)
Gaps in between the stands to allow sunlight onto all of the pitch.
On that subject, a decent playing surface.
Safe standing areas for the X-block types.
Suites for conferences/shows/events etc (vital for revenue).

Aa there houses being built around fossets i would think a road in and out will be built .

And a "let's have a go at the ref and accuse him of not knowing the rules when actually it's us that don't" section.

A case in point: at the Bromley home game (I think it was) there were some people in the West stand (who spend the entirety of every match having a go at the officials) having a go at the ref for not knowing the rules for not making one of their players leave the pitch after treatment after a foul. A few minutes later he made one of our players leave the pitch after treatment. This led to them being apoplectic. What they didn't know was the laws of the game which says a player doesn't have to leave the field of play following treatment if the offender was booked.

We might just have to increase the capacity of the whole stadium if we go down that route.

I would love a Grumpy Arseholes corner section of any one of the new stands. That way all those that always spend their entire 90 minutes moaning about everything and everything could all sit/stand together and moan in unison.

I remember seeing a NL match earlier in the season and the home team had a moaners corner one side of a stand and it was well populated.

It was Eastleigh.

May I suggest another section for those that do not know the LAWS of football.

Correct. Note, I used rules when applying to the people having a go at the ref and not elsewhere. That wasn't by accident, it was because they keep saying, "You don't know the rules!". There are no rules in football. There are laws.

Woking have a Moaner’s Corner.

There are two aspects to this.

1. What we want during the match (3 points and a good atmosphere)
2. What we’d want before or after the match to entice us to spend more money at the ground.

A club and stadium I can be proud of, unfortunately at this moment in time I have neither.

Horse?

 

[Prawn]

Horse?

Aussie Rhyming slang: - Dead Horse = Sauce

Think he meant Pie and Dead Horse, though I would have said a pie and Phar Lap.

A for VB, you can shove that where the sun doesn't shine.
