Another potential money spinner from the ground development is selling seating from the to be demolished east stand. I would gladly buy a couple of seats with the frame to fit in my garage for when I get out of way of the missus. I would suspect other sporting clubs may be interested in the seats as replacements or spares for their own grounds, more so amateur clubs if the price is right.

Shame there isn’t more worth salvaging from the East stand, shows what poverty we’ve been in I suppose.

I’ll buy a square all the same.

Just a thought but when the club do sell the turf why not have a memorabilia sale at the same time.

Anything the club sells goes to the club, but anything fans donate goes to charity (hospice).

Good causes both and good publicity. Bet TC can do auctions.

I'm sure he could but for auctions you always go for Mick Morgan first.

That's true, why break a winning formula.

Could sell the posts ?

Possibly but they may be re-useable.

However, if you got more for selling the old ones than new ones cost then why not. That said not sure how old those sticks are?

Tbf I can’t remember the posts ever been changed could be wrong?

Definitely have. The very fact the paint on them would have been lead paint back in the day for a start but I can remember them being changed for lighter versions I think. I can't remember when.

Didn’t the posts come down to swap for goals when Leeds United reserves played at BV?

Don't know but wood rots I'm afraid so even with the best will in the world I wouldn't expect the posts to last more than 20 years a throw, assuming they are still wood?

Even so, it's still 20 years of history so someone might want them.

I'm sure the posts will have been changed - I seem to remember in the days of Henry Oulton kicking goals the posts were quite a bit higher.

Yes they were and on the tops they had some carving if I remember rightly

We still kinda need the posts anyway. I'd prefer not to sell them just yet.

I'm guessing that the posts required for an artificial pitch are different to those for a grass one, in that you can't just dig a hole but I might be wrong

I’m gonna buy the toilets in the NW corner, I spend most of the 80 mins in there these days.
