Reminds me of the terraces behind the goals at Edgar Street.

Goodness me.....that was a rough old bit of terracing that I ever saw.

Good to see that we've invited students from Clifford House for a tour of the ground. Wonder what they thought of the Argyle game!

In RaWZ we trust....Amen.

Excellent initiative.

The Centre Spot has been much maligned over the years(including by me)
I was pleasantly surprised on a rare visit by the improvement of the ambience(non match day) of the place,it could attract a few from the new accommodation.

When the redevelopment was being planned I suggested that a coffee bar with some decent chairs would pay its way when 300+ students arrived. City fans might also stop by rsther than going to the dreadful Starbucks.

Maybe if the Club buys the freehold from OTR? - they have already bought our Taggy and SP's shareholding.

If i had to agree with you we would both be wrong
Without wishing to sound like an old fart students and free food go hand in hand don't they ?

Just a reminder to fans what SJP looked like in 1980, Not an update but a look back

Thanks for that DB9.
As much as I loved the ground back then; have we come a long way or what?

It is quite amazing how the ground has improved from those days but that ground is still recent history and shows what a struggle it has been to get where we are now with a lot of people to thank
