Looks good with standing and seating in the area. Will away fans be able to go into it when completed? |

Better late than never!
30 years on from when the chairman of the time at Somerset Park, a certain Mr Barr, was coining in the millions through his construction company and yet he wouldn't put up one for his own club!
Below is taken from Wikipedia just to remind folks of these souless stadia that were insisted on by the SFA and other football authorities of the time.
"The company's stadia work included new facilities for Southampton, Fulham, Celtic, and Rangers football clubs as well as projects for lower league and rugby clubs. Clubs which got into financial difficulty because of mounting debts to the company included Airdrieonians[2] and Raith Rovers.[3]" _________________ Talk on! Talk on!
You'll never talk alone.

On a similar note, Cove have applied for planning permission to erect temporary stands behind each goal. _________________ Hope he's got plenty Rovers action to comment on tonight.... |

Did he not also put Airdrie under, due to not paying it. |

The stand looks interesting, though even in a 3D mockup they can't make their pitch look good |
