MK Dons, just bigger concourse and a good view. A temporary stand that does the same as those listed, I'll take that" So, no need for a new stadium then. They will have a capacity that more than covers their long term average attendances and a makeshift stand with a concrete alleyway behind it which is absolutely no different to what modern stadiums can offer like derby, mk dons and Coventry…..wael has cracked it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will still be stood in the pissing rain eating stale crisps and drinking flat Fanta. And looking at the empty site they have, is there enough room to have concessions in a concourse style?

Bring it on. Yep, It'll be interesting to see what their definition is of a "Concourse". Given their excellent disabled sections, I'm guessing it'll be a hole under the seats of the stand with 1 or 2 portacabins selling food/drink. Hardly a concourse as such. Also what about the toilets in this stand? That would take time to build/get the plumbing done (probably by asking for volunteers again). I'm guessing the portaloos will be making a reappearance on the hurry up, but how many are they going to need for a stand that supposedly carries around 3-4k? Plus by law, they would have to have disabled facilities as well. Still just over 2 months until the start of the season, no rush Rovers, in your own time, absolutely clueless. As it stands how many balls are they going to lose into the back of people's gardens there? Probably put up a large net to protect it all. This is going to look absolutely awful come August. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are expecting to expand capacity by 25%, that could - in theory, increase the match-day-parking-nightmare by a similar percentage. I'd expect that any planning would come with a condition of increase/improved parking and bus related options, to deter people from driving.

Major Isewater Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Jolly Joey explains why their ‘star boy ‘ didn’t get picked for Wales. ‘At Portman Road, they wouldn’t put the line through because it’s not such a big jump from this atmosphere to international football’ It’s to do with playing in front of big crowds. This is why Low got into the squad, massive crowds at Walsall and the HPC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
