Re: Extra Seating to be EFL compliant
As I said earlier do whatever you have to that gets the away capacity up to 1500 so that the extra money [ above what you're getting now with a limit at 650 ] so that the extra cash each season would pay for whatever repayments there were on what was needed to redevelop the ground. I don't see the ...

Re: Extra Seating to be EFL compliant
Perhaps not for now but moving forward, I'd love to know how say over 5 years how we intend to finance and upgrade our ground because it's obviously not league standard and if we want to progress it'll have to be upgraded, away fans quite rightly criticise the ground, so CAN we get a response at th...

Re: Extra Seating to be EFL compliant
The board did fantastically, I am sure the club will have the efl requirements in hand, would just be nice to know what the plan is. (The money you would lose dropping out of the league is probably more than the cost of the extra seats) Paul Hornby in a radio interview just after the start of the s...

Re: Extra Seating to be EFL compliant
Because he was a very cheap/attractive option who to get the opportunity probably all but signed away his rights to anything above the absolute minimum compo should he get sacked meaning to the club giving him a 5 year contract carries very little risk for them and on the converse side he probably ...

Re: Extra Seating to be EFL compliant
Swindon have a plan to put a roof over the Stratton Bank and even without a roof if we're in League 1 that would probably revert to being the full-time away stand again (or at least a regularly used overflow - anything more than about 750 away fans would need us to use it and there are a lot of L1 ...

Re: Extra Seating to be EFL compliant
Why would Wild be on a five year contract then if they weren't convinced we were going to stay up? Because he was a very cheap/attractive option who to get the opportunity probably all but signed away his rights to anything above the absolute minimum compo should he get sacked meaning to the club g...

Re: Extra Seating to be EFL compliant
I've said it all along the club are waiting to see if we remain in the EFL before splashing the cash on ground improvements. No need for improvements if we get relegated. Stay up and it will all get done in the summer, be patient. Why would Wild be on a five year contract then if they weren't convi...

Re: Extra Seating to be EFL compliant
I thought they were doing it properly but a temp seated stand was going in in the interim and then done in the summer. It would be nice to know what is happening. The temp seats held up by commonwealth games and a shortage of plastic seats which sounded a load of nonsense to me It is. Most of the t...

Re: Extra Seating to be EFL compliant
Why go to the expense of putting a roof on the seats in the cross bar end.? We rarely fill the seats we have now in the main stand so they would rarely be used anyway. Plenty of clubs have uncovered searing. Stockport, Gillingham and Swindon spring to mind Because if you buy a pre-fabricated struct...

Re: GMA sponsored by Winders Accountants SC 151000 Acc N 23114065 Ref 704573807
Having 1500 away fans at Barrow would be a logistical / planning nightmare. I just don’t think the club could cope. I think having segregation currently in the HSE is also a headache for the club and added to that there’s not one away fan comes away without saying it’s the worst away experience in ...

Re: Radio Carlisle Derby
Well maybe if clubs like Sunderland and Newcastle treat away fans better and didn't force them to sit hundreds of feet up in the air where the perspective view of the players on the pitch is atrocious and awful value for money those away fans might just be encouraged to behave a little better. Sund...

Re: GMA sponsored by Winders Accountants SC 151000 Acc N 23114065 Ref 704573807
It is the best option. The cheapest / easiest would be to seat the entire HSE and you’d be there or there a-bouts seat number wise but before I get beaten up for it I know that is not the fans choice and I know that doesn’t solve where to put away fans. I just think it’s not feasible to do anything...

This is just the same old same old. Going round in circles. There is nothing the GMVers can do regarding the installation of extra seating and the topic has been discussed many times on the forum. Opinions and ideas are best discussed with the board/ owners who are the people with the authority to ...
