Well if you’re setting your expectations that low then yes it is. View AttachmentLooks pretty decent today and as for the pitch - wow! Nearly December and not a hint of mud to be seen Agree looks really good. We have a proper ground at last. Unfortunately we will not be in the SW stand tomorrow night because the safety certificate is being sorted out. So we will be slumming it in the East Stand and at risk of getting wet or blown away! slum it in the East Stand and risk getting wet or blown about.

Crop out the west stand you’d think it was a different ground.

I'm intrigued how they plan to fit it in with the East side.

Remember the away end at Springfield park (?) Wigan …. Now that was bad ! 😂 Remember it well, a shelter at the top of a mud bank which always seemed to be slippy
There’s probably footage on YouTube of drunken fans sliding down the muddy slope in their drainpipe jeans. Hilarious

Hilarious here you go and even mentions when we lost there 4-3 I was one of the very few Rovers fans who saw the whole match. We were losing 3 or 4 nil before the Supporters Club coach turned up. Gasheads thought I was joking when I said the score and then Rovers scored 3 late goals.

Gasheads thought I was joking when I said the score and then Rovers scored 3 late goals. I was one of those on the supporters coach , it broke down twice I think. Got into ground at half time, 4-0 . Second half we were all over them and should of got a draw in the end 😀

View Attachmentsmaller stand than ours 2300 Was thinking it looked smaller We done gas. Worth the pillars to get the extra seats for what will mainly be the away end once we are all done.

Only think a few clubs will take enough to fill over half that stand ( guessing others will still use terrace). That means at least half will be available to home fans. Obvs not next season when we’re in the championship as most clubs will fill it !
