RC55 FFC Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 2 minutes ago, Brockers61 said: The original post from the Club re the North Stand wasn't worded particularly well i.e. when they mentioned 'interior' of the stand they actually meant exterior, or the interior of the exterior to be more precise. As far as I can piece together each of the six seating blocks in the North Stand will be named after a 'legend'. The club have signed up six local firms so that each section of the seating comes with a sponsor. Player details and advertising material for the sponsors will be place on the back wall of the stand behind the top row of seats. Not sure what material etc will be used for the display and advertising but presumably strong enough to withstand any vandalism when away fans come visiting.

IF a structure was erected you'd likely be able to still use the exit behind it. I'll amend my idea and make it double sided and have a massive, Insta-grammable Falkirk Highlander on the back Easter Road has corners filled with advertising boards. Quick google and found St Mirren fans discussing it. Surely this could easily work in some form for us and allow access. Another possible income from sponsorship. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lot's of if's but IF we did build it and even IF the Scottish government ban alcohol adverts we could sell it as prime location for, say, a new local tourist attraction IF the distillers wanted to advertise with us Edited March 10, 2023 by Blame Me 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 In times gone by I'd doubt that this stuff was being looked at, but I have every faith that the folk at the helm now and the commercial guys are into these possibilities. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just like the idea of Rayo Vallecanos stadium blocking off the area where they can't get a stand. Wooooooooooosh! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A fairly simple structure would be all that would be needed but it would help enormously in reducing the open feel that the stadium has. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbers_One_To_Eleven Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 I loved Brockville too, however, I don’t get too misty-eyed about the atmosphere part of it. For every 6000 plus gates we had in the 90s, I remember plenty games where we had 2500 gates at home to Dumbarton or Brechin as well. It was still a decent way to spend a Saturday afternoon but it was hardly a charged, electric atmosphere! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbers_One_To_Eleven Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 (edited) What would would be everyone’s ideal number of teams in a league? I’m thinking about outside the top flight. I know it’s a funny number because it is lopsided in terms of number of home and away games, but I miss a 14 team league.

I think the attendance will be affected quite a bit by the result on Tuesday. I think it would have been a bit healthier had we won. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
