Old turnstiles

[Oldsmobile-88]

The ones from Arsenal were far more modern, I remember them being stood in a corner of Red Square before they were put to use.

Were they the same ones that were behind the BB for a while,reb cubicles with full height turnstiles ?
I thought those particular ones were unsuitable for SJP.

I believe that they probably were, although I never heard that they were unsuitable.

I recall talking to Dacre about them,he mentioned that there was no where to install them without a load of aggravation with reference to building work.This was of course at a time when the club had little spare cash for the ground maintenance or alterations however minor.
I believe there was a vague idea they could be used when the St James Rd end was refurbished(a pipe dream back then)
