Eastleigh Owl Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 On 03/08/2016 at 15:53, HirstWhoScoredIt said: The bit I didn't get is that there are 1,000 kg in a tonne. Therefore 3,000kg in a tonne. Average supporter weighs (optimistically because most of us are fatter) 75 kg. That means only 40 supporters can stand on our bridge at any one time But that is what I was told by a club official. Did you used to assist old casio with the accounts? 3000kg in a tonne ffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattitheowl Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I read this thread and all I can think of is those 3 corners from Potter or the draw with 9 man Yeovil. This thread would be on page 67 back in those days. Oh how lucky we are... Just not bothered... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that is what it is, US tonnes and not metric tonnes. Although that still means there shouldn't be more than 120 people on the bridge at the same time. At the end of the match there are more than that. it also means that the new Owl weighs 18,000 kg, which is surely too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Deleted member Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I was in the directors area on Friday. Instead of taking down the 70s badge we are all familiar with thats on the wall in there in steel - theyve put a blue curtain over it (I looked behind it as it looks like we are about to have a plaque dedicated or something!)

Buxtongent Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 1 tonne equals 1000 kilogrammes equals 1102 US Pounds equals 2,206 pounds (lbs) The tonne is simply 1000 kilogrames, and is just short of the UK Ton which is 2240 pounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ash76 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 It's all about how the weight load is spread and that's why it's a footbridge only and not open to vehicles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
