To Santa Thompson

1. A matching roof over the Jerry Kerr Stand in line with the other Stands
2. Matching floodlights on all four sides
3. A new steep angled single tier shed for us with the above incorporated
4. A bar with smokers balcony to the rear of it and a kebab shop too will do

Many thanks. St Obswell

If at all possible in the future a 'safe-standing section'.

Maybe where the old 'Palestine' was (the unused part of the ground between Shed and Fox).

Better hand-dryers in the bogs of the ETL.

Like your hands are being blown dry by an asthmatic gerbil.

Facility to get a pint at half time.

Nae danger that's happening though.

Tek · 14/11/2014 12:39 am

Facility tae get a decent pie/bovril and no have tae take oot a 2nd mortgage beforehand.

See above.

St Obswell · 14/11/2014 7:42 am

5. A capillary connection from the undersoil heating into the frame of our seats

Said it to you often...why this want for matching roofs, matching stands etc... Laugh like fuck at the dees who 'slag' our 5 stands...why? Have an identikit ground like all the other dull as dishwasher modern grounds? Na give me tannadice any day of the week... Well made an original
the east stand has been up 20 years already and looks the same as it did after a year...been to places like Hamilton where it was falling apart after 18 month!

Ps, if we sold another kid for a kings ransom id build another stand at the shed and leave it at that

Tek · 14/11/2014 9:28 am

I would quite like a scoreboard anaw tbh.

Fuck knows where it would go though.

Only place available would be the aforementioned empty bit of old terrace between Shed+Fox.

european_bob · 14/11/2014 9:42 am

Same as st.obswell - matching roof over jk and fair play.

Also, always liked the clock end at Highbury. I know there would be no demand for it but always thought Tannadice would look ace with a similar stand.

Andy · 14/11/2014 10:44 am

If I won the Euromillions I'd like to build a two tier Shed with comfy ass seats in the top tier and safe standing in the lower.

Top tier would be £20 a seat and lower tier £5 adults, free for U16's.

Rest of the ground would be £15 top, £10 lower, £5 concessions in JMFPS and away fans £15 in JK.

Doubled for Champions League games .

Beardy23 · 14/11/2014 10:45 am

A monorail, and a dog track

Andy · 14/11/2014 10:50 am

Also, I believe United have offered units to bookies before but none taken them up on the offer.

Seems hard to believe though, licence to print money.

Hopefully catering will change at the end of this season.

Would love access to Heggy suite at HT, pints pre poured as they are at EPL grounds, two pints £5, nae hassles cash only quick service.

lifesanocean · 14/11/2014 11:43 am

Build the 2 tier stand on the site of the Shed as was originally concieved. Finish the ground off. The plans were in the Final Hurdle yonks ago. Never gonna happen mind you unless I win £163 million on the Euromillions.

Hamiltonarab · 14/11/2014 12:01 pm

Well realistically - betting stalls could go in, but looks like no interest but this can be pursued, a more up to date approach on food stalls and what they sell (and pricing), introduction of getting pints somehow, a small score board could be achieved I feel and also adds a screen for advertising giving additional incomes, a standing area could be introduced I feel but whether that is in the ETL or the shed I don't know.

Idealistically - As most have mentioned a new stand at the Shed end akin to the ET stand, of a good quality and not of the flat pack stand nature, although I don't mind the Dunfermline or Hearts idea too much and again would add to the charm of Tannadice being that bit different. Saying that though I would rework the roof over the JK stand to bring in line with the others, more so to give it a wee update.

This is where the old scoreboard was when Tannadice was terraced if i mind right, slightly different from the electronic ones used nowadays though

baldyeagle · 14/11/2014 12:51 pm

Fixed odds coupons are set to be introduced into the Hospo areas. If that goes well then Bookies stands are a goer.

I seem to remember it being at the opposite end.

Yeah, I thought I seen a picture of it and it was between the now GF and ET. Well before my time though.

stobievulture · 14/11/2014 1:23 pm

Auld scoreboard was in the corner of the arklay street end and the cliff/seggy/north terrace

Kinda on the same lines as you m8, but in addition, would build a new facility between Shed and Dode Fox at the coarner for use oe the disabled supporters. Kindo double-tier raised stand we open terracing and enclosed heated/air-conditioned for the bad weather, for improved view for them, we catering facilities FOC to them and their 'carer'.
