Hampshire Red Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 They are a disgrace in every aspect and being 92nd in the spend on facilities should be written up in E. Post and on Twentman chats shows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benguin Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 The development will be small but an improvement on the facilities we have at the moment. I.e. all stands cantilevered roofs, better toilets and generally modern and sound. The Old Grandstand had character but it was a "shithole", The ground is loads better than that mob have up at the mem and as others have mentioned the training ground is superb. The results from the academy are there for all to see. Ethan Ampadu has made his first team debut for Chelsea aged just 17 and is regularly on the bench for the premier league squad. When the compensation is agreed for his transfer last summer we may be able to develop a little bit more. Ollie Watkins is also doing well at Brentford. There are more kids on the production line, the club is in the black and you can still stand on the largest terrace left in the football league! Good luck this year, things are looking bright at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they have to go but it is still a bit sad when they do - most of us on here will have been down to St James` Park and will remember the ground with some affection I should think. Would have failed its safety certificate next time round - had to go I''m afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
