Decky Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Done the stadium tour at the weekend there and seen all this for the first time, I was nearly sick. It's everywhere on the inside of the ground as well, I mean is there really any need to have a massive Sports Direct sign in the Milburn reception? On a side note, the guy taking the tour said plans are in place and ready to go to make the Gallowgate level 7, but the club needs to improve on the pitch before they'll green light the plans. Nothing that wasn't obvious anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dell Boi Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 To extend the Gallowgate means a lot of work to the metro station doesn't it? I think it would cost a hell of a lot, can't see it happening for a long time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowlingcrofty Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 No need, we wouldn't fill it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 It'll be a long, long time until anything more is done to the ground aside from the odd lick of paint here and there. Given the way football is going they'd be more likely to flatten the East Stand and rebuild with corporates in. Capacity gets any higher and we'd only fill once or twice a season.

Rich Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I think it would fill for certain games at the moment. If we ever actually start challenging for anything again we'd be able to fill it on a regular basis. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EthiGeordie Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 That's a pretty bangin gif http://i.imgur.com/6ZO6r.gif One day we see thiS I wonder where Shepered came up with the fun when he plan to redevelop the Gallowdate stand in 2007. I was so excited back then. I am pretty sure it will generate extra tickets if we get that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 They planning on leaving the Sports Direct signs on the East Stand and that horrible painted one on the Gallowgate then? Just seen they've not been taken down inside. Only the signs that say 'Arena' have been taken down from the outside so far. http://pics.lockerz.com/s/256079300 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing that wasn't obvious anyway. Said that when I went on a tour in 2009. Tour guide said that within a couple of seasons they were going to start building to get the stadium up to about 62,000. Then the relegation happened... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I know someone who went on the tour and was told the kit would be Sports Direct colours and our sponsor would be Sports Direct, I think the guides get bored or one of them is that twitter twat.

morla84 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 The gallowgate extension goes back to when Freddie Shephard was owner doesn't it? When he was gonna build a hotel and a casino as well? Doubt we'll see it, pointless Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt we'll see it, pointless Yep, we entered into a JV with MGM to apply for the UK supercasino license, which was awarded to Manchester and was then cancelled. Developing the site would be a bit of a pain due to the need to redirect the roads but it's certainly doable. The metro station isn't an issue, that was just something reeled out by the club in the 90s as a bit of an excuse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
