I'd like us to hang a load of supporter's club flags, 'ultras-style' signs and better-designed legends banners in those corner sections.

 

Could get hertz-minded designers to help design some flags and with some proper art direction would look pretty cool imho.

 

Bring on the naysayers!

I don't know how feasible it would be but a mural style painting over each corner (sort of like the pressley et al banners we used to have). Could vote on each one.. Could even just use banners?

 

NB. Blackie with the 'paint this place maroon' is a must.

 

So is the Beattie.

Along with the trusses.

 

I quite like the trusses white to contrast the maroon. Id like to see some murals of ex players or famous moments painted or projected onto the outsides of the stands esp the roseburn for home games.

I think it's Bournemouth that have 'legends' and historic club images on the ends and it looks great. Surely this has to be given consideration. At the very least paint it/board it off to make them maroon.

I've been of that opinion for years. It looks great and let's everybody know we have fans from all over.

Picture of Robbo/Rudi/Foster/deVries scoring against the Hibees in each corner please. Also, mow the grass on the new pitch in such a way that you can see Vlad's face.

Maroon, makes the stands look more enclosed.

 

Would painting the trusses under the floodlights maroon as well be too much?

Aye, they should be painted pure brilliant white.

Any news on the mural that was going to be painted onto the gable end of the tenement outside the main stand?

That would look wonderful and finish it off.

I would like to see all the steel work painted white as it would make everything nicely balanced. Our colours are maroon and white after all and all maroon would be a bit much in my opinion!

Health and safety issue surely, what painter would take that job on, scaffolding, a big ladder, a few cones and all the area to tape off, could be too windy to have a cuppa tea on them trusses

3 of the current stands have been up for over 20 years and the old main stand was up for around 100 without the need to paint the walls maroon. ??‍♂️

You can have too much of a good thing. I’d keep it as is or maybe board it for legends murals or pics of crowd cheering etc.

Would love to see the inside walls painted maroon but the trusses all being painted white would be more pressing for me.

I'd be happy if they just removed the ridiculous half-complete sign from the side of the stand.

More important to paint the floodlights and Truss from all stands a nice brand new gleaming white instead of 20 year old faded pink.

It would make inside the stands to dark. Painting the supports white should be our main priority and jet washing the back of the Roseburn stand!

Agreed.  Lots of small things needing done in the other stands.  Replacing the seats that are sun worn also.  Will be immense when all done.

Should jet wash the whole roseburn stand after the hobos and weegies have been in it.

Let's say to today's team,  win us some trophies and you will go up on the walls as new legends. A bit extra incentive to get us back truly challenging again. Maybe.
