Could be some noise with a bit of feet stamping. i was at an Orlando city game a few weeks back and they've just built a brand new stadium and the floor is some sort of metal. It makes for a great atmosphere when they all stamping on it. If ours is anything like that it will be pretty decent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwidoug Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I'm renowned for my inability to even put up a set of shelves. However, after being educated by this thread, I'm considering handling the planned extension on the house myself. Confidently predicting it'll be a dawdle. Admirable but don't forget to order the seats and for goodness sake, make proper arrangements for the police box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamtartan74 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Got a mate who has worked tirelessly on the project from the beginning, according to him, had the seat debacle not happened then no doubt the stand will have been ready for the Aberdeen match, however, since the 'minor' balls up the external work has been ramped up a bit including the inside of the stand which would not be ready for the 9th sept, as we all knew. Seems fairly obvious to me anyway now that it's been delayed by 2 months other aspects of the build will take priority. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambothump Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 To elaborate, at East Fife game, comments were made on stand being ready for 9th sept. I said they must be meeting their programme KPI's or it would be flagged up for a delay. One week later, visually obvious on progress, programme date would not be met. After this, seats, haven't been ordered, I would surmise, supplier would want a pro forma payment, so hold off order till last minute. When order is eventually placed, supplier informs you, that you missed your delivery time slot window. It's what suppliers do, once they have your money, I was a tier 2 buyer in construction for RBS, NatWest (same company) and Nationwide. Good fun, your procurement schedule of both contractors and materials dictate your programme, labour require materials, their availability is most important. Perhaps we have not been deliberately misled, construction has been excellent, it would have been better to have been less optimistic at the outset. I would still have bought my season ticket, but felt less cheated, I'm still paying to FOH, it needs sorted on the pitch though.

Chaps Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 From hobos.net fat freddy 09:41 PM Yesterday Heard tonight that another two brickies walked off site today, arguments over the turnstyle build, they were told to re-do some work but weren't happy with the terms on offer. The lift shaft is becoming increasingly problematic, it has been built in the same manner as The Leaning Tower of Pisa and is several centimetres off between top and bottom, it could be costly when it comes to putting the lift in position. They've also ordered the wrong size of lintels for the openings at the lift doors, I hope they're not going to do any short cuts to remedy this problem. Morale is at an all time low on site, some of the management are at breaking point, I'm hearing from some involved that its one of the worst run jobs they've ever been on. January now a more likely completion date. The thread has now reached 100 pages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have been told repeatedly that, if the seats had been ordered properly and on time, then the stand would have been ready to admit spectators for the Aberdeen game.
