Interesting read, includes lack of proper expansion in summer and explanations as to why, as well as information about the Fan Membership Scheme - obviously this has been in the pipeline for a year and not just since iMUSC was mooted. E-ticketing lined up for next season as well - and, and as we all knew - old and new fans are of equal and great merit. maidstoneunited.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/an-amazing-end-to-amazing-season.html |

A very good read which was very informative regarding the future plans of the stadium, it will be good to see more toilets and food outlets next season as I think we have been struggling this year with our existing facilities, I also think it will be great to see a slightly larger Town end stand, what has happened to the idea regarding temporary standing facilities on the river side of the ground.

I was hoping for the temporary terracing to run alongside the main stand until such time that the stand is extended, standing area that high up would be awesome IMHO

That would a be fantastic proposition, the view of the pitch would be brilliant, not sure what the costs would be, but it would make use of a large section of the ground that is currently not used and also increase the capacity

Still no scoreboard/clock.
Clubs going backwards.

Yeah some interesting insight as to proposals for next season. I must say though I was hoping that maybe when it comes to ticket allocations that there would be at least a mention of imusc members being included as part of the2nd tier structure. I know we are independant but we are all for the club and it will benefit from the members

A bigger press area with more tables wouldn't go amiss, with more power sockets!! Only one socket for all the laptops reporters bring these days seems ludicrous.

Gaggy, suggest you join club membership scheme when launched in summer, then you have no problem

You would think someone makes a easily moveable mini terrace that could be both relatively cheap and easy to shift that could go down the riverside until such time as we can afford / need to spend the large pile of cash needed to relocate the services under that side

Gaggy, suggest you join club membership scheme when launched in summer, then you have no problem How do you figure? If we're pushing for the playoffs towards the end of the season, the club membership scheme will suddenly have 2,500 members. The opposition will still be entitled to 600 tickets...so how will Gaggy (for example) have no problem getting one of the 1600 golden tickets? Bit concerned about "members of the Fan Club will be given priority (together with Season ticket holders) in purchasing tickets." - this does rather make me wonder what the point in getting a season ticket is - as I think most agree, season ticket holders (old or new!) should get priority |

I agree that more toilets are needed especially at the Springfield end, however I think our foot outlet has been fantastic in terms of serving people If you left the bar with 10 minutes until KO to get something to eat at any other ground in our league, you'd be lucky if you didn't miss 15-20 mins of the game, most of the game at Crawley!  At The Gallagher, you're served and probably eaten it by KO |

Agreed Tim, but at least at Crawley Down/Three Bridges they get their (slow) profits from it, I don't know what the plan is for next season but I'd like to see it more "in-house"
