    Bit by bit, piece by piece Dave. A lot to do and finance is always an issue but make no mistake the Ryan Sparks who some on here regularly criticise is making a difference. Not everything can happen in five minutes so some will still complain BUT it is happening in a lot of areas. My advice to those who knock most things is let him and team get on with it.

    Hopefully my fellow inhabitants of the lower kop treat these toilets with a bit more respect, so we can all use them in comfort. Instead if like before pissing on the floor and shoving coke bottles down the toilets for some reason and that’s just what goes on in the cubicles. How hard is it to just go to the toilet in the toilet wash you hands then leave…

    It is one of life's great mysteries why some people struggle to use toilet facilities when out in public. I refuse to believe they have the same issues at home.

    Lets hope the creatures that use them respect the time and money invested.

    Long overdue refurbishment,but any improvements are always welcome.
    The toilet facilities within the stadium are an absolute disgrace let's hope when there finished our supporters look after them.
    Graffiti and mindless vandalism will be minimal I hope.
    The club are trying their best but I can't help feeling as with anything there's always a small minority who see fit to spoil facilities for others.
    Onwards and upwards City.

    It's a great thing, and as others have said, it's a steady progression in the right direction.

    However, I'd personally be worried about starting this project so close to the season starting. As we all know, plumbing appears simple, but more often than not, there's a lot that can go wrong beneath the surface. An absolute nightmare, would be if some of the toilets are out of order for the opening game - leading to the ones that are working, being overused and put under even more (water) pressure.

    Certainly a lot of project management will have to be done to make sure that this flows nicely (pun intended). I should think that they'll start with the hot water boilers, and then move on from there.

    Haven't been to VP for four years! When I do eventually make it there (hopefully over Xmas), I'm expecting something along the lines of West Ham's London stadium! Maybe they can hire me for a some craft brewery consultation. I think that would be the cherry on the cake - although it would increase toilet use.

    I would still advice take two Imodium instant tablets before kick off to avoid using the cubicles.

    It’s not just a football thing though.
    I work at BT and the amount of telephone exchanges and BT depot toilets that I’ve been to over the last 30 years that are disgusting or unusable is unreal.
    The fact that EVERYBODY who uses these facilities are fully functioning half decently educated ADULTS makes it even more strange that they find leaving them in such a state so acceptable.
    I genuinely wonder what goes through their heads when they make a conscious decision to leave them in that state knowing their work colleagues have to also use them.

    It's the age old question when visiting a shared office toilet - "do you brush away the skidmarks from the previous occupant, because the next person using that toilet is going to think you left them there". Always a quandary.
