  1. To be honest, wouldn't be against it.
    Some investment to make if they still have any ambitions of moving stadium.
    Our pitch is usually one of the best in Scotland but this season it's easily been worse than the worst black rubber pebble dashed pitch.


    There’s not really been an explanation from the club as to why it’s been so bad. As you say Dens has been consistently one of the best pitches in the country for a long time. The obvious assumption is that they’ve reduced the maintenance budget due to lack of income while we’ve not had fans through the gate (understandably) but it’s been a fairly spectacular drop off in quality.

    Not heard anything about the new stadium for a long time. Presume that’ll be put back even further due to the current financial climate
  2. I have nothing to base this on, however I’m becoming increasingly concerned that our Yank paymasters will push for a move to an artificial surface over the summer. Possibly citing the condition of the Dens Park pitch over the winter period. The cost of maintaining a top quality pitch over a wet cold Scottish winter must be enormous. As I say there is no basis for this other than my idle mind.

  3. 59 plate seat altea. Going to take it round to the garage I bought it from on Monday and get them to have a look.


    I had a 58 Altea where the same thing happened to both front windows. My dad also had an 11 plate where the same thing happened. I think there is a bit of an issue with moisture causing corrosion on the piano wire bits which snap / come loose from a fixing.

    He took his to the garage where they sorted it with manufacturer parts and charged somewhere in the region of £250 inc labour (this was maybe 4 years ago). Although they said it was a c**t of a job due to being so fiddly.

    I bought a £75 kit off eurocarparts, took the door to bits, fucked about with it for a couple days without success then sheepishly deposited at said garage with tail between my legs.

    Unless you are quite dexterous and good with finicky wee things and have the patience of a saint I’d suck it up and head to a garage.


  4. Disgraceful.

    Anyway, changing subject completely, started my new job as an animal thief today, looking forward to working with Majcek, Juergen and Mohammad, a great team!


    It’s a good thing MJM have moved on from drawing things on people’s gates as a prelude to stealing their cats. Facebook has made the populous wise to that now.
