kenny131 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Looks nice building but when these are getting built why is there no standing areas around the rest of ground looks soulless and does it limit capacity to 500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pheasant plucker Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Artificial surfaces = different game for me but sadly it is the way of it. However Kirky have been homeless for a while now and I hope the club and their resilient fans get a stadium to call home before too much longer now. All the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kilsyth ranger Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Good for the rabs and kirky in general to have them back in there home town , not keen on artificial surfaces myself , but think Renfrew have proved imo that if its done properly it can work .

No everyone can play in a white hot atmosphere like bellsdale. It is what it is in a nice part of town and will keep us alive for the next few decades, I will happily sacrifice a bit of 'atmosphere' for that! Btw when you have went through what the Roy have the last few years this is like playing out of the bernabeu [emoji6] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
