Eco Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Good morning, haven't seen the mighty Reds since 23.11.13, Sheff Utd 0-1, but managed a ticket in Atyeo for today. Obviously I'm excited by seeing the developments, both on and off the pitch, but most crucial question is, as I believe the old Hirerite building has ceased to exist, has a new bike park been built ?

cidercity Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 I think there are places to park your bike outside the south stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even I get "blown away" by how much AG is changing. The South Stand is terrific and the unfinished West Stand is enormous. No more shielding yer eyes from the setting sun in the Dolman.... Its all very impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're quite right, the size of the new stand is truly incredible. I cannot wait to sit in the highest possible seat available and feel like a God sat in the heavens! That will be a strange experience to say the least, to be able to look down upon the Dolman stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive found it difficult to get down to Bristol much this season (life just sometimes gets in the way) so have had to settle mostly for away games. However I did make it down for the first time since August for the qpr game... Walking down from the lions all I kept saying was "******* hell.... That is massive/impressive/incredible " as I was so taken aback by it that I couldn't come up with anything more constructive to say!

Aye. it's changed a bit in 2 years! Now the truss is up, from my seat at the back of the SS / Dolman corner, the West stand looks truly awesome. Enjoy Eco.

Absolutely battered them and deserved to win, cruel this football game. I meant more a lucky escape from walking away which felt very much like a loss, we may as well been battered 4-0 again for how I felt. Contrast that to the QPR game when the draw felt very much like a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
