Sheridan1-0 Â Â 411 #1 Posted March 15, 2017 Although the long term plan is to demolish the West Stand if and when Wednesday get back to the Premier League...it appears the club have applied to put up a new fascia on the back of the Stand...which improves what's on it currently...(slightly..)

senwar   10 #3 Posted March 15, 2017 The picture in the application looks like a 2 years did it on MS Paint  It does look a bit of a mess behind there, but that's just a waste on money.  I genuinely thought that 'rendering' was a joke when I saw it doing the rounds. Jesus wept.  The back of that stand looks a right mess but that, well, I don't even know what to say! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Jerky   10 #6 Posted March 15, 2017 Please put it up, us blades will have a reyt laugh.... seriously, its design is hideous,also the stand still looks the virtually the same as on that awful day. For most of us ,looking at it reminds you of what happened.May aswell leave until you pull it down.When new ones built just have a permanent memorial outside, think there's one already? Has to be said, iv been on that stand a few times now as a blade and with the mrs (boro fan), its always cold, even in a warm day its cold. A bit spooky really. Everyone will be glad to see it go i think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Bladesman   10 #8 Posted March 16, 2017 For the last 28 years that stand has needed to be knocked down.  Not sure why Wednesday would waste money doing this instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
