Must have hundreds in if they can do 4 years of work in 6 weeks too. Nick Knowles and his team would rip it in a fortnight, our story is as sad as the usual ones on his show.

It's no worse than Parkhead in terms of cleanliness and other clubs in Scotland? Don't get me started. We shouldn't be happy to be like the rest, we should be aiming to set the standard in every department of the club no matter how small. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, the problem with Ibrox is years of the standard annual upgrades being left/half-arsed, as well as the maintenance issues that crop up with any stadium that get addressed as and when. It's been disheartening the way Ibrox was largely ignored by the club for years, apart from those advertising boards for Ashley. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluegecko 306 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 I'll be happy when we have hot water in the toilets. 655 quid for a season ticket to be treated like cattle.

Blue Rino 1,215 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Was in TO 30 mins ago sorting season books and saw some cherry pickers being used at Broomloan and also a large amount of security vehicles parked at the Copland end (not sure if this is a regular occurance) or for maybe imminent signings ( hopefully).

LOL153 No Surrender!!! 1,810 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 In my opinion the stadium is fine, a wouldn't change it, but for sure it needs a good clean up, bit of paint and a good jet wash down at certain bits, get a bit of life back into it, as people have said though, get things cleaned up in the park as well and start winning again.

williamcarvel9 87 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 It's good to see that they are upgrading it, however I don't like the fact they are fitting years of work into a matter of weeks. Take time and do it properly would make more sense to me Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For people moaning about toilets and that get a grip. Obv lived sheltered lives. I would rather every penny we have to spend gets spent on our playing squad until we win the league again. It has to be our priority. Agree work needs done eventually but not now. FFS back in the day, 'the toilet' was an empty Tennents lager can, once filled the contents were carefully dispatched down the terrace steps and the can was then passed along to the next person waiting.
