Question New East stand - which style / design do you prefer?

[Tommy2holes]

OK, here's what I would do (from a "professional" standpoint)

Essentially, seat kill wise, you're going to have the same capacity as the current East Stand for GA sales. But you're going to gain additional higher value seating for those wanting to pay extra.

I'd imagine the stand will be something similar to the South Stand at Oxford United:

How many does that main stand at Oxford hold?

It's a bit generic and soulless but would do the job.

4495 apparently which seems about right for us

We are on a budget, bulldoze the east and build this in the car park

Good idea that- the sun will never be a problem with the permanent sun shield there!

 

[C'mon you Shrimpers]

I know others will be more knowledgeable about this than me but given the stand has a lot of highly combustible wood and probably asbestos given the year it was built are there any grants available from the sports council etc etc to help us on our way.

The beauty of this design is that it appears that the seats are removable and could also be utilised elsewhere for hospitality events &c.

and if you dont like the seats ,you can bring your own deck chair and think you spending a day at the beach. also the removable chairs there can be utilised for other puposes , such as throwing at a crap referee or an opponent for a blatant foul on one of our own .
