We even had the embarrassment of a sign failing of the stadium a few weeks ago, presumably the wrong brand of glue was used. DC cannot use FFP as an excuse for getting the stadium up to date and applying to safety standards as I am sure having a near 40,000 seater capacity instead of only 32,000 will help with FFP in the bigger games by being able to get more ticket revenue. Instead i think the excuse for this one is if we get promoted we will move to a new stadium, but in the meantime we only have 80% capacity. No investment since 96 and It's all DC's fault, FFS give it a rest. Zzzzzzzzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apswfcowl Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Wasn't going to comment but just had quick look and it has annoyed me. Not so much the Stain in third but Leeds first. Just to be clear, Bellend Road is one of the worst grounds I have been to. It has one big stand which is out of proportion to the rest of the ground and the other three stands are no bigger than my garden shed. They are old, run down and out of date. The pricing is high and the view is crap. In fact, if they wanted to improve it they should knock the whole place down and replace it with a landfill site. Even then it would have the disadvantage of its Leeds location but at least it would be better than it is now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bouncing Owl Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Bumhole Lane is ok in all fairness but Bellend Road is quite frankly an horrific ground. It’s totally fu*ked. How that is first place, I will never know. It needs knocking down and starting again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
