I think I know where you filmed that from??

Why didn't you use the TV gantery??

 

[sausage butty]

I was up on the roof anyway and it was just a spur of the moment thing .

 

[cashman]

Cheers mate.

Surely if it's not been seeded yet it would be pretty stupid to be playing a game on it on July 27th. Even August 7th is pushing it

Mystic Meg struck on the 19th June

Has the control room been put in it's new postion yet ?

Well at least it aint on the pitch.

 

[Stanleymad]

Never seen the pitch so green & lush before looking good

 

[mab]

Looking at that vid!! then no it hasn't jeff,surpost to be in the middle of away end

 

[JEFF]

So, if the control room isn't up we couldn't have played Burnley anyway. Unless it is going to be put up "in the next couple of days"

Well why blame pitch when its the control box thats the issue ?

its probably called bullshine, it usually is.

The control room isnt an issue at all. It is definatley the pitch.FACT.

From what i understand the control room that was above the changing room is being scrapped and a new purpose built structure will be built above the water tank.For the time being the old control box is located at the back of the coppice end.

It is in the middle of the away end , its located behind the terrace at ground level.

Am I missing something here? If the old control box is behind the Coppice End at ground level, then surely, it's not operational, as by its very nature, a control box should have a clear view of all parts of the ground? So we couldn't have played the Burnley game, anyway. The more important question is how the "new, purpose-built structure" is going to be built in just over two weeks?

Would it not have to have been built in the next few days if the pitch had been fit ?

Have they got planning permission for a new structure ?

All these questions could be posed at the season ticket collecting event next week - I think every single person who goes should, one by one, make a point of asking O'Neil (if indeed he's there) - maybe we could have a set list of questions for everyone to ask and them compare his answers, I'm willing to bet none of them would be the same
