Apart from the dismantling of Marcus Evans paraphernalia are there any signs that the stadium is being tarted up/repaired? Any grumblings of improved catering facilities/quality and those sorts of things? Any moves to improve the pitch surface and so on? |  | | |  |

Pitch works were being targetted for next summer, not a cheap process and will also include moving the dugouts etc. |  |

Not the first thing to have a 'rub down' under the North Stand i'd hazard a guess |  | | |

Did you not see Ashtons interview going into quite a lot of detail aboit thier plans.
The pitch is one of the high priorities, bit its too late to do anything now so big changes end of the season.
Have a look, its worth a listen. |  |

That’s been there a while, hasn’t it? What’s it covering up? And how did it come to be there? Half assed Evans repair that never got finished? |  |

Rust probably judging by the state of the steelwork.
Actually, I think there has been some work done to at least paint bits at the back of SBR this Summer. |  |

We were told they’ll be cleaning “every seat, all terracing, windows and roofs” and repainting every yellow line on the stairs and gangways. | | | |

Is that an exclusive "ITK" scoop? Stay away from Kally, Cruncher etc on Twitter with that gossip. They will have known weeks ago anyway, which is was I would say too! |  | | |

As long as they don't freeze the GK, not all beer needs to be kept cold, sometimes simply cool will do | | | |

It’s covers the wind flaps that go right along, which I’m glad of being on the back row.
I think they take it down sometimes to allow air to circulate for the pitch. | |

That's what they were put there for. When I sat at the back we tried to take the tarpaulin down on a hot day so we could get some breeze and got told off by stewards. | | | |

Thank you! I said the stand had these wind things in them and people kept laughing it off. | |
