19owl08 Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I see and hear people comment about the poor exterior appearance of the stadium quite often and it got me wondering... How much would it cost to paint the exterior and roof ? In addition to paint I guess there'd be scaffolding, insurance & cleaning costs. I'm sure at least one of the 22k fans who attends the home games must know what they are doing on a commercial level when it comes to painting such premises. I'm also sure a fair few of us would be willing to give up some of our spare time to assist in helping to spruce it up. DC has pumped money into the pitch, coaching and playing staff so maybe it is something us fans could look to cover through justgiving or event raising. I know we pay our fair share in tickets and merchandise but getting the stadium to its old beautiful self from the exterior at least would be a nice gesture.

pazowl55 Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I get your point. Perhaps DC ain't been round to that side of the ground and is unaware of the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darklord Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I've got a brush in the shed they can have, still got gloss on it but it's wrapped in a plazzy bag so should be right. Also find 1/4 tin of magnolia and nearly a full tin of black hammerite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AgileBeastt Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Apart from looking better is it really going to bring more fans to watch us play? Im all for having a refreshed looking ground but it's just a waste of money really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modboy Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 the away end would look so much better with a lick of blue paint. Ironically those lights have come back in to fashion again, what goes around etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
