Hoose Rice Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 When (not if) they come up will they be allowed to play home games at Gayfield? Where would they groundshare? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthBank Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 They can just swap stadiums with the Fakes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Arbroath hosted Dundee United and Dundee at Gayfield in the Championship and Rangers in the not so distant past but as soon as they get promoted to the Premiership the ground will not be fit for purpose... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It only has to meet Bronze standard. It seems that it has to have 500 covered seats. They have 861. scottish-fa-club-licensing-manual-2021.pdf (scottishfa.co.uk) Page 24 onwards.

big al Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 (edited) Great wee stadium, get the games played there. Only issue is it’s so close to the sea the wind ruins half the games. Edited January 16, 2022 by big al 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Grimes Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Glad we’ve moved on from the days of clubs needing a 10,000 all seater and other similar requirements What a nonsense that was Inverness ground shared with Aberdeen for half a season ffs 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suspect Device Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 I'd be more than happy for them to be allowed to play games at Gayfield. I went to an Arbroath v Montrose game a couple of seasons ago. Great wee stadium and I'm hoping that they come up because it's an easy away day and Pittodrie will no longer be the coldest stadium in the league. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are extra requirements on pitch dimensions and silver level floodlights but the Championship has the same requirements as the premier so shouldn't be an issue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunfermline Don Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 They should be allowed to play at Gayfield but only if they go back to letting the fans change ends at halftime. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
