Anybody else not wonder why this sort of upgrade wasn't done when we was in the prem, even just the AstroTurf around the pitch, under soil heating, lots of money was spent/wasted elsewhere,.
Well done the current board/owners.0 -

Not my photos but Cruicky21's from yesterday evening.
Looked really impressive
If you look at the 2nd to last pic you can see some unpainted steps behind gate 7 at pitch level. Shows how much brighter and safer the new steps are. You can see them more easily and the non-slip paint should help prevent falls.
Show just how much of a state TJ and MS had allowed the ground to get into
One other thing was no University of Greenwich signage up yet. Still got four weeks I guess.1 -

I think Rd is wiling to invest in the infrastructure whilst saving money on the squad through using the network player pool.Charltonparklane said:Anybody else not wonder why this sort of upgrade wasn't done when we was in the prem, even just the AstroTurf around the pitch, under soil heating, lots of money was spent/wasted elsewhere,.

Nice contrast in the top pick in the lower west between the red new seats and the faded old seats.

Speechless at how good the Valley is looking. RD needs to take huge credit for this. I can't remember the last time I've been this excited for a season to start!2

Theres a problem with the pitch in the n/w section near the touchline. I think they said there has been some damage caused by foxes and its quite patchy, they reseeded it today and are using the lamps on it. It seems to be the only bad bit though, the rest looks superb. Because the drainage is better theres no need for the pitch to be higher in the middle than on the sides, so its almost completely flat now.
The old girls looking the part now, and we really have to be pleased with RDs investment in the ground.1 -

Surely the problems went back way, way before TJ and MS arrived on the scene?Henry Irving said:

Some of them yes but not painting the steps or replacing broken light bulbs in the floodlights for example are 100% down to themStu_of_Kunming said:

Anyone know if the plan is to replace all the pink seats in the west this summer, or will it be completed in stages?
Could maybe flog the old ones to Brighton?.........................2 -
Nice pic - is that the training kit, because it would have made a fantastic first team shirt. More than a hint of the St George's there.bobcafc7 said:@Spud_1972: Pitch side with a couple of legends#cafc @CAFCofficial @CAFCTrust http://t.co/tpDWYbuuWD
