I quite like it.
I like it too. As BLM says that was more my thinking that we’d have to replace it regularly. If you put crests on at least you can leave it more than a season. Though the teams a nice touch.
I suppose when the west gets redeveloped you could incorporate a few signs with the clubs crest onto it for effect.
Just another thought, looking at the whole bottom of the north being dug out and replaced. It’s a real shame that instead of having the frame upper north done that we couldn’t have dug out the whole north and had some terracing put in there with some underside bar. You could probably get 7k in that stand. Not a criticism of the previous owners because I get they didn’t have the funds and had to make on the spot decisions. It does seem like the new upper now is more of a hindrance to further works though.
With the west being something that may be upgraded next I wonder if the plan would be to dig out the west terrace like the lower north and build new terracing with some basic facilities and a roof on. It would be very interesting to see what the club has in with planning that’s for sure. I’m sure getting rid of those boxes and getting new terracing in would also increase the capacity on west too by maybe 1000. Even more if there’s plan of a second tier (boxes etc) or sky bar.
