Welcome To The Jungle Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Could we have a place on the back of the stadium where we could say carve the name of anyone who buys a ST. Buy a ST and have a permanent spot with your name on our stadium (new one AG or AV) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheddarReds Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 that would make me feel very appreciated. Though I can't see it happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CIDER NOT CIDRE Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 I reckon that would be a great idea! Would really like to leave my mark on the stadium... I don't know how to explain it, it would just feel good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
You Do The Dziekanowski Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 What happens if you don't renew after your name has been carved in the stand? Good idea but a bit unrealistic me thinks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glynriley Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Could we have a place on the back of the stadium where we could say carve the name of anyone who buys a ST. Buy a ST and have a permanent spot with your name on our stadium (new one AG or AV) They should have an honours board , like at Lords , in every stand with the names of season ticket holders on. It would be unique I reckon and might persuade a few people to get one if they're wavering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sglosbcfc Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 We need a garden of remembrance to salute our fallen reds. I've seen this at an away game, Coventry City I think. They may have to move the dead to another Midlands ground now though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOSH17 Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 What happens if you don't renew after your name has been carved in the stand? Good idea but a bit unrealistic me thinks I think the buy a brick principle would work with out season tickets so any one can make a one off payment for a brick of their choice.Think it is a good idea.

JOSH17 Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 We need a garden of remembrance to salute our fallen reds. That is a good idea. any one seen that graveyard of a German football club?Costs a bit to get buried there though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 A memorial garden is a really good idea, there wouldn't be room for burials but just a quiet place where people could go and remember their lost loved ones. Like in a church where people light a candle, perhaps they could plant a little cross or some other symbol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOSH17 Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Any one have any ideas where the garden could be placed? Park opposite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheddarReds Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Seen it in 442 looks like a football pitch. it's only 5 mins (or a short distance) walk from the ground aswell. Must have thousands of names there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonL Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 I've been to quite a few grounds where they have this and I think it would be a really nice touch. For some people football is all they have and to be remembered in this way would be quite touching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollywhyte Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Good idea. Living in Plymouth, I go to watch Argyle on the odd occasion and they have a similar thing. Unfortunately their display hasn't really been preserved at all, with cracks in bricks, weeds, moss etc. If maintained, would look really good and add a nice sentimental. touch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cider hoss rules Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 How about some kind of memorial built into the stadium, like the gates or something. You would have to be pretty callous to discard those in the future ................ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like in a church where people light a candle, perhaps they could plant a little cross or some other symbol.I think this would be a brilliant idea, need to put this to the club at see what they say, if the ashton vale site gets the go ahead, perhaps a small area could be put aside for this.If the option plan B gets the go ahead, the park opposite would be an ideal spot, but this would involve the council/local residents, I am sure someone would have something to moan about.Perhaps we could have a memorial wall at ashton gate.

beaverface Posted June 12, 2013 Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Buy a brick scheme......... BTW - Anybody see the buy a brick scheme at Barnsleys Oakwell last season? The bricks aren't actually real bricks that are embedded into the structure but are stick-on face plates that are meant to look like bricks - basically cheap cladding! Anyhow, a few of them had fallen off onto the floor leaving the residual no-nails stuck on the wall, and the brick faces broken and discarded on the floor with inscriptions such as "R.I.P Dad", or "F Bloggs 1948 - 2010" Didn't look too pleasant TBH.
