City TV

I oft went in the changing rooms when having schoolboy trials and they were minute. ( Roughly late 60’s), I believe they have been massively redeveloped since, but the “ redundant “ terracing in front of the old gents loo could easily be built on as you say.

 

What showing us train at a school? That will go down well.

Anyway, most football club lose money on TV channels.

 

@Bronco......all our yesterdays.

 

Needs to broadcast after the watershed at 9.00 pm

 

That whole corner of the ground needs demolishing and something far better to replace it. Embarrassing and makes the ground look shabby, the outside is even worse. Looks proper tatty and not a good look as the players come into the stadium.

 

Agree. While it is the last remaining part of the old ground it really does look a monstrosity. I am sure they could fill it in like the NW corner (taking capacity to near 28,000), build state of the art changing rooms, suitable media centre and larger club shop there. Obviously we would need to own the ground before making that sort of investment though.

 

OR The landlord pays

 

More chance of a free wax and hand wash from @Fordy117

 

Not even a Brazilian wax Ade? He disappoints at times…..

 

Back crack and sack. Im sure he takes cash in hand.

 

would probably need to buy the road and move it to make any real substantive changes to the corner especially if it was to match the NW corner

 

Absolutely , too close to the junction of Holywellash and Cornwall Terrace .

 

Prime example of things been done on the cheap,
Exactly what would happen with this Tv idea. 40
Hours volunteering… who on earth is doing that!!!

 

Unfortunately that is how football is. Every club does this including some in the Premier League. They'll get university students who need experience and so this is their only option, if they are lucky they might get a paid role at the end of it.
Voluntary/unpaid internship roles are at every club, nothing unique to this club

 

Spot on …just shows how naive some are! Great job for students of physio or sports analysis etc wanting real time “on the job” experience as part of their CV’s or indeed adding to qualifications . That’s Sharpe’s influence I bet?

 

I remember MacAnthony mentioning this very thing on his podcast a fair while back now, he'd been getting stick from fans for doing this very thing and was putting his view across that it was a chance for prospective candidates to impress future employers and gain experience at the same time. As a business you have to make every penny count.

 

It’s commonplace in lots of industries ….benefits both parties !

 

Short term pain for long term gain. Its a foot in the door and if you do have potential a decent remuneration will be forthcoming.
