Not all the seats are "sellable" currently as some support brackets are corroded and have broken, rendering the seats useless, these seats had to be taken out of use. Other seats were moved from one place to another prior to the concerts to replace broken ones, so there's empty spaces here and there.

I had 100 New support brackets made and sent to the club to replace corroded ones, that lets them fix 200 seats, but i don't know if these are all fitted as yet. Replacing the seats and the metal work is going to require ongoing replacements.

Then there should be a look at the specifications which are not up to the standards required.

Corrosion on seating should not be an issue in this day and age.

Buy cheap buy dear in the long run.

I saw somewhere we have a game against Stranraer tommorow is this a closed door game as I can't see any info on the Club website regarding this game. Nothing on the ticket site thing either just season ticket or donation options. Can anyone shed any light on this?

Pay at gate I believe. £10 and £5. Based on memory so don't shoot the messenger if I'm wrong.

Sound like a broken record but for all those looking to have paid full price so the club get 100% of the money, that has been their from the start with the donation.

The foundation are merely managing the donation (assume due to the financial benefits of doing so) but all of the money goes to the club as “ticket money”. It just means that the club can give away free tickets to those struggling & may not otherwise be able to go. But the club DO get 100% of the extra paid - nothing is going to charity from the extra. 

Those unable to renew & add seats were also advised by a number of fans on here to phone the shop & it’d be done in 2 minutes. It would also have freed up the seat(s) now purchased for sale. 

Sure the renewal system will be easier/slicker next summer.

He might well have played on Saturday but he was definitely on trial for us on Friday. Would take him, sure the clubs will have it sorted out this week and we’ll see him sign permanently.

Mmmnn. 
Post match reports on here were very scathing of the ability and attitude of the #9 who came on as a sub. Are we talking about the same player?

Don’t know what’s so hard to believe about this all tbh. He clearly wants to play with McGlynn again and with his brother being here as well just seats the deal.

Heard he’ll be playing as a trialist again for us against Stranraer tomorrow. Can’t wait to see him light it up again like he done the other night.

The seats in the main stand have been in place and in use for 20 years! I’m guessing it’s pretty standard procedure in most stadiums one or two might need replaced from time to time! 😂 🤦‍♂️

There’s no problem with the South Stand seats, their framework and supports are Galvanised Steel 

The West and North Stands have varying degrees of corrosion, especially in the lower areas where the weather has got to the Steel, these are Mild Steel that was originally Powder Coated. I don’t think after 17 years the contractor who build the stadium would entertain a claim.

I'd presume any issues with the south stand seats would be funded by sandy Alexander anyway.

Whoever you think it was, it certainly wasn't Ethan Ross, hes contracted till 2024, definately no gonna drop down a league, and would cost you the best part of £150k+, but good luck trying  

Not a problem when the NBP is fucking massive
