I would hope that they are, the only slight issue I have with the paying adult part is that the most disadvantaged kids will inevitably miss out, but I guess this could be addressed though the usual community work etc. Showing my age here but I freaking hope not. We already have too many misbehaving weans at Somerset. Think the place is Pirates Pete's at times rather than a fitba ground. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the idea is good, maybe have Ayr do a tour of a certain country. We've been to Wales and England in recent-ish years, maybe a tour of Ireland or a european country during preseason? Also gives us a look at whatever football talent is there in whatever country aswell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Rwanda so close to Zambia, surely the Government has some free space on flights? Bet Frankie could get you lot hooked up with some good discounts at the Neelkanth Sarovar Premiere in Lusaka. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Partick are the case study in all of this, and by all accounts it worked really well for them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itzdrk Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 Thinking about actually watching the matches next season and just how shite it'll be the north terrace is away. Don't think I've watched a game from the Somerset Road End since about 2018, never got a scooby what's going on at the other end. Hopefully the next project makes it steeper in there and gets rid of stanchions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting ahead of myself I know, but if we could make the terracing steeper behind both goals at some point in the future it would make watching the games at Somerset even better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 The inconvenience next season of not having the North Terrace will make me glum. I thought they were going to do construction in a way that allowed continued use of the terracing nearest the pitch. I've not watched a game in the SRE since we played Rangers at home and Forrest scored, the one where it was snowing. I've been in the Main Stand a couple of times (was forced to during Covid) so I don't fancy being in there either. The NT has always been the best place to watch football at Somerset. It'll be worth it in the end as the new North Stand will be class but I'll still moan about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can play left back you can watch the game on the pitch instead. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t even remember him in his first year but I think that’s down to me stopping watching the streams past December. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Signed a two year deal in July 2020, signed another two year extension last season taking him up to the end of this coming season. FWIW I think he's been fine up until this season where he's regressed badly and become quite evidently a weak link who needs replaced. Don't think there were many complaints when he signed a two year extension at the start of the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
