Or the red guttering. Or the huge brown cladding on the Holte and Witton Ends. No appreciation of history at all.

The brother said that he believes what happens is that they get someone to stand in front of the disability seating area to judge the height of people standing up, not sure if he is correct on this occasion

Is it open at half time too?I was just wondering how it compares to the Terrace View and given the limited take up if that is more what the TV will become in the future. Or will it go the other way and will they upscale the 1874 and chuck some padded seats into the Witton?I've been in there a few times. Mick Dale used to host in there, do a quiz written by Rob Bishop and you'd get an ex player or two come in. It was alright actually. You'd get a pint quick enough and a pie. It's the sort of thing they should keep on and make it a reasonable price. Last I heard it was £50 for the season so it's a shame if its gone up. I got in via a draw using my reward points.

is Bar 1874 the former Lions Club in the Witton Lane stand?
They clearly used the extra disability seats as an excuse to hack away at the back of the Holte for the Terrace view. Future will see disability seats moved (north stand) an am executive platform for padded seats at the back of the HolteEverything the club is doing off the pitch is sickening.
One thing Unit 731 had over the VP catering operation: at least their victims didn't have to queue to receive something that'd boil their guts from the inside.
