And look where it got them? They still can't fill their ground. They're still doing it now though, having their new kit shoot in Stockport modelled by a Stockport band. It's absolutely pathetic, but I wouldn't expect any less from them.Β could you actually see leeds united doing the same in bradford or middlesbrough doing it in hartlepool. its more than pathetic its a clear insult to a town with another club and decent fan base. AFC Classless of Manchester would be a better name for em. They probably did It because Stott decided to Stop having his box at the empty head.

Not sure how those pictures got through my work laptop's porn filter but looks very impressive! Looks like a new stand, amazing what a bit of TLC can do

Praying they paint those red bits still π My first thought too; donβt think weβre the only ones! Iβve re-watched one or two videos from last season; whatever else is done, the transformation so far is already both visible and startling. More importantly, it is stylish, professional, and simply confirms all the other very positive vibes emanating from EP.

Praying they paint those red bits still π What colour would look best, though? Blue, red, yellow, white... or something else? Whatever, even if the actual columns get done now I don't see the roof girders being repainted while the present seats are still in place. Interesting to see what's on the sign at the foot of the steps: for the lower blocks it refers to seat numbers... but oddly, not for the upper blocks. Is this a clue as to what may be in store for the upper tier in the future??? π Or did they just run out of space!?

Praying they paint those red bits still π Me too, but is that as easy a task as cladding something over, not sure ?

I think itβs just because you get sent out of different doors from underneath. Itβs just sending you that way initially

Looks better. Surely after doing this, they need to replace the seats next. Looked tatty and tired on that news report the other day.

How about rail seating on the lower tier?π Wolves have just "reseated" a whole end this way, and Tottenham have similar. Why not us as well... maybe not now, but certainly when the seats do get replaced. Much less susceptible to wear and tear too!

The club is welcome to use my Β£325 towards converting my seat ready for the 2021/22 season.. not sure the folks behind would be too chuffed though.

I'm still think the blue plastic could be restored with a cutting agent maybe... not sure of the cost of a new seat v the Labour cost of trying to restore the old ones (if even possible)

The rake is far too steep and the rows are too narrow for standing to even be remotely safe
