Quote ="halifaxjohn"With respect it's usually me who has been accused of rose coloured spectacles, head in the ground, etc etc, but I have to say that look out on the ground from the East Stand bar and everything looks as you say. Enter the ground from the South Stand area and as Mr Abbott said it is a disgrace.
Some of the upstairs room are now looking shabby and lets not forget the council promised new drainage an electronic scoreboard and an improvement to the skeleton between the South and East stands. None of this happened and I see no reason why it will in the future. The council will let it fall further into disarray.
As I remember Mr Abbott promised all of this with a reduction in rent for both clubs. How? by utilising the stadium.
But hey, lets not look to a bright future, lets look forward to the days of grass?shale and rust.
The Bubberites/Luddites vitriol was not solely to stop his purchase of the Shay it was also intended to drive him away from HRLFC hence the attack on not only his idea for the Shay but also his integrity over Heartbeat of Sport and worst of all his family.
No disrespect intended to our co tenants.

Incorrect about the drainage, significant drainage work has happened over the summer. The work was paid for by sandal BMW. Hence the east and south stands new name.
