Seems like the most necessary one to me. Probably one of the more costly too, I'd imagine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s 40 years old, has had known leaks and parts fall off and looks very tired. It’s 100% essential to fix before it gets any worse. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And people are complaining about not prioritising and doing the cheapest and easiest first as if the roof repairs just aren't happening. Looks like the club can't do any small bits of housekeeping alongside the large job, because the large job somehow magically disappears from people's consciousness if the small jobs are being done at the same time. Weird. 'Don't paint that car park or fix that foyer until the roof is done or people will forget that the roof is being done at the same time and become upset.'

Looks like they might need to get that big letter "E" at the end of "JARDINE" on the Sandy Jardine Stand logo repainted too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As i said several times before CB over the last few months all three stands are being overclad. You want see it when it's finished but it's essential. It's a 7 figure project on this alone. The undersides will get done close season over the next 3-4 years. The yellow GRP is being replaced close season too. Executive boxes are being decorated. Major heating system in the Main Stand. And im now hearing all the toilets are being looked at In summary, i'm not sure 101 jobs are being done but jt's a lot and it's running into millions.

When your charging top dollar for car spaces you need to have the spaces marked out I would have thought to make max revenue as folk would just abandon their cars with bigger spaces between the next car and that could add up to a tidy fun on a match day, I would say it was a self funding job over the year.

Tomatasauce 1,253 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 For the guys being negative about the board only doing bits at a time.. 1. it’s not possible to do it all at once for health and saftey reasons alone, but if you know about the building game it’s always done in phases to timescales 2. The most important jobs needing done are the most visible and I’d imagine the board would be expecting to get abused if they spent money on the stadium that nobody could see or witness improvement. 3. Just cos it’s BADLY in need of a lick of paint that’s just superficial stuff, your not going to paint the shop then start replacing cladding an roofs are ye? It will get done but in a professional an timely manner it might not be to some cunts liking but you can’t please all the people all the time. WATP!
