Good to see community service working in conjunction with SUFC.

If that were true, we'd have a bigger attendance today than tomorrow!

I understand that the consortium were not too keen on using fans to help, as I guess they feel it shouldn't be needed by a well run club, but they should understand that fans 'want' to help. It promotes a 'one team one dream' camaraderie between fans and the club.
It really can be mutually beneficial in that fans really feel part of the club, and the club can save some money on things fans are more than capable and willing to do. Win-Win!

Feel gutted couldn’t get there today as done it last year and wanted so again but was to short notice for me.

I agree. I think fans know how much the consortium have put on the line for the club and want to do what they can to support.

I doubt i have ever seen so much action going on at The Hall pre season. There are literally people, vans and lorries everywhere and work going on at every corner.

The Tree at the main reception is also getting the treatment and being severely cut back.

it is the start of a new era. What has been done inside three weeks is remarkable. Just need to get it done on the pitch and full steam ahead. Tomorrow is a huge day of celebration but people need to realise that we are still slightly behind a few other clubs. Win, lose or draw tomorrow the season will not be defined by the result.

It's not good and quite a few Fox holes.

Pleasure to be here today, so gratifying to see so many young people turn up.

Happy birthday to George who is 18 today yet helping with the clean up

 

[Tinks]

Well done everyone

 

[Hawkwell Blue]

Clearing up the rubbish around the place this morning felt very symbolic. All that rubbish and crap acquired over the years from Ron now gone

 

[Smiffy]

Well done all of you.

How are the toilets looking?

Have they been spruced up yet?

West Stand gents similar to last year albeit some wall render being replaced by entrance.

Been an amazing g day so far cleaning up the stands at Roots Hall



We have just to finish off the south lower and the 3 sections in the north bank



If any shrimpers are free this afternoon to give us that final push it be amazing



Everyone has been outstanding today but we just need a few more pairs of hands to get us through

Hope you don't mean IRA wall render. Then again anything is believable when it comes to RH toilets.

Better pic of the current pitch.

Looks a sorry state. Can only imagine how it'll be during winter.
