    I can exclusively reveal that the new dug outs will be another slightly bigger hole next to the pitch, with seats in under a roof with sponsors on, does that help anyone.

    I'm assuming they will be part of the stand and therefore above ground level, rather than "in a hole".

    That would mean displacing more ST holders and there’s been no noise about this so assume they are likely widening both dugouts to extend along to the halfway line.

    Nice larger technical areas for Jones to run about in.

    Amazing that they lasted more than 30 years - I assume they were installed in 1994 when the first permanent seating block was installed in the West stand - considering they were pretty old fashioned then!

    Got to be a feature in someone’s garden. Particularly if it’s the home dugout that Big Ron mistakenly took up residence in when taking charge of his first match back at [insert club name because I can’t remember].

    Could make it into a nuclear bomb shelter?

    Game ended 0-0 Redfearn missed a penalty for us, can't remember if he missed or whether the goalie, Mark Crossley I think, saved it.

    That game had nothing to do with us. That was  Forest against Arsenal

    I was wondering if Henry was going to try lugging it up the stairs to the Museum (I assume it wouldn't fit in the lift)

    I am sort of surprised that the club haven’t auctioned these off. 

    But I’m guessing it would cost more to delivery than it’s worth

    Shame the club don’t tend to do more of it…
    Man City are currently auctioning off Guardiola’s office 🤣

    Really? I was sure there was a match at the Valley when Atkinson was the new manager of a team (probably Forest) and he was surrounded by photographers getting snaps of his return to football and sat in the wrong dugout for this impromptu photo shoot. 

    Am I completely imagining this?

    Yes he did it but pretty sure it wasn't at the Valley.

    Came on here thinking this was about a new pop combo like the New Seekers and must have missed their predecessors The Dugouts

    Forest v Arsenal at the City ground 1999, his first game in charge of Forest.

    I was so sure that happened against us at the Valley. Think I’m losing it!

    Looking forward to seeing the new dugouts, could be the biggest thing to arrive at the valley this summer.

    A picture of the new goalkeeper Anna Koivenen. You can see the dugout works in the background.

    Looks like they've installed a sand pit for Nathan to play in!

    May be an image of football and American football
