    Still remember when that speaker fell from the east stand roof a few years ago. So fortunate no one was underneath it 
    You definitely wouldn't have heard it coming 
    Just a few rows in front of our seats.

    You wouldn’t want to be in the ground when should there be a power cut.
    The last time I worked there, the UPS that powers lighting was shot.
    Still the original unit that was well past life expectancy.
    I do wonder sometimes how the ground passes fire sign off.
    The ups and emergency lighting are tested pretty much every week.  The batteries are new.  

    The club is currently doing an exercise to analyse the life expectancy of various electrical elements around the ground

    the owners and club have acknowledged some of the short falling of previous ownership and “make do and mend” approach so it is being addressed

    Fair play, can't argue they haven't taken action.

    Hope you did not have a massive Richard and block them again B)  The pies in the ground can unsettle the tummy,

    It was the urinals that were out of order, I'd never take a dump in them however desperate I was.

    Well they were, but I wasn’t match fit for Millwall away so smashed them up

    Shame, I was going to volunteer to be the masher man for the first half of the next game just so I don’t have to watch the “football”

    Really glad the leaky bogs are sorted. One thing at a time I guess, but can we sort out the leaky defence now?

    I went into Macdonald's in Norbury and someone had done exactly that.

    Sure it wasn't just a discarded burger? They look similar after all.
  • Could someone from Maintenance check out the forward gears on the team please, they seem to be stuck in neutral and reverse. There appears to be no drive.

    Non working turnstiles into the Curbishley stand still not working.

    Turnstile(s?) for the west upper not working now either. 

    On Saturday anyone could've walked in as the turnstile was just unlocked - at least last night they had a steward with a mobile scanner.

    There seems to a problem with the system or at least  at the AC turnstiles, where the readers sometimes show “wait” when you present your ticket, then default back to the start, even when the numbers going in are low to non-existent. Even the handheld device was taking ages to process tickets last night.

    Need to get Robert Lee back - no problems when he was operating them.

    One thing at a time please, the toilets had to take priority.

    Getting fit isn't the problem for our players, it's staying fit that is.

    The missing bit of Perspex between the East and North roofs, the various lights that are often out coming down the stairs from then family section. The massive puddle that always appears outside the family stand turnstiles when it rains and lastly one of the most annoying ones the lack of seat numbers on most seats, I’ve now marked ours with a sharpie

    Oh yeah, also remembered that whenever an ex player is being interviewed on the pitch you can never hear what they’re staying.

    Perhaps this is the way forward, the game I went to yesterday had the toilets being brought in on a rental basis.
    90 minutes before kick off!

    That’s what happens when you make them use a pick axe whilst wearing trainers.

    I noticed a step on the staircase up to my seat today  U 76 in block F has broken away, leaving a crack between it and the stand, I guess it is slowly growing in width with time.

    Widening cracks in any structure doesn’t sound good…
  • Need better loos, better beer and to sort that tannoy out for next season.
