Alright lads?

There seems to have been a lot of comments regarding the local chavs when talking about putting a roof on the rostrum which seems to be getting massively out of hand. If we put a locked gate at the top of the steps onto the rostrum under the roof it would take some particularly determined, Spider Man-like kids to get up there especially carrying a bag of bootleg blue WKD's! Surely this is by far the best and most cost effective way to achieve what we want?

Johnny, sorry mate but what on earth do we need a two tier rostrum for? This will neither keep us dry nor move the rostrum back. As a short term solution all we need to do is mark a line around half a metre back from the railings on the rostrum as they do at other clubs and your vantage point will be slightly improved, personally I haven't really noticed a problem with the current position, yes it could be better but it's not a priority.

As for the track, reprofiling what we have now and introducing undulations and level changes and possibly a few surface changes, even if its just lower bite astro would be a start we don't need to reinvent the wheel IMO. With all due respect to the designers and builders of which I will be lending a hand I don't want us to do too much too soon and possibly end up with a bit of a mess.

Must my opinion
