Tommy Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 How much do you reckon it would cost to build that for a corner? Genuinely interested to know? Our share of John McGinn I guess [emoji460] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's good to sit in the atmosphere. Nothing feels better on a winter's day than going back in for your halftime tea and pie with rosy cheeks.

Isle Of Bute Saint Posted October 17, 2017 Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 Dont see the point of filling the corners with a seated stand when we cant fill the four stands as it is nust a complete waste of money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shull Posted October 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 (edited) We will need the extra Capacity when we are chasing Tony's target next season of the SPFL Premiership Title. Then, subsequently when we enter the Champions League in 2019/20. Edited October 18, 2017 by shull Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howard Hughes in BlueSuedeShoes Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 A running track. We could've had a running track. Has anyone mentioned a running track? A running in track is something we could've had. Stewart Gilmour messed up big time on not insisting we get a running track..........................

Liverpool Bud Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 Interestingly I stumbled upon this recently warrington Wolves have. a Barr built stadium it held around 13000 on completion it is a good model to show costs - expansion and capacity Warrington Stadium rents out office space to NHS and has in operated club shop it now has a mega big advertising electronic screen along side the A49 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/rugby_league/super_league/warrington/9412710.stm i hope this life no works as an illustrative example when they decided to fill in two corners A quick surf on the web shows the local paper mentioning figures of 1.2 to 2 million investment to create extra seats and hospitality areas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beyond our ken Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 Office and conference facilities would fill in the main stand side. Corners. And help the overall atmosphere and look. Any increase in capacity would only be needed for non footballing events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite right, quite right indeed. Our stadium is a shining example of cutting edge modern architecture at it's very best and if Shull thinks differently he can sniff my smell sphincter muscle after a curry lunch. Our stadium is our fortress, our stadium in our home and our stadium really IS our stadium since it is paid off. Now brighthouse style refunds for us!!!!!

eastlandssaint Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 Telford united have two corner office blocks at their stadiumhttp://www.footballgroundguide.com/leagues/conference/conference-north/telford-united-new-bucks-head-stadium.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Pityme Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 (edited) Office blocks, conference facilities work if you can fill them. Office space is the hardest type of commercial property to rent. now if only someone could get a retail development off the ground that the club could piggy back additional facilities on the back of, whilst coining in hundreds of thousands in annual rent... crazy idea eh..?

Bud the Baker Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 Just back in from town (Ayr) where I stopped in to buy a coupla Empire Biscuits from an old colleague who now runs his own shop, but getting to the point he said GHR was a "great wee grun" which is the general opinion of any Ayr fan I've ever spoken to on this issue.

Livinginthepast Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 Its maybe a great place to play football, but its an awful place to watch football. All four stands should be demolished and the supporters charged a fiver to stand on the rubble. It would be a more enjoyable match day experience.

It is a great wee grun, and it's beginning to generate some great memories, which were sorely lacking in the initial few years of existence. It's not perfect, not what I would have went for in terms of the steepness and height of the stands, but it's growing on me as time goes by. It'll never be Love Street, which will remain in my heart forever, with so many incredible memories over many years, but it is far better than many (including myself) have made out in the past.
