A very sensible post, Pete, as always. I agree. Given the all but terminal mess we were in some years back, I find it very difficult to be critical of where we find ourselves, on and off the pitch, when we could easily have ended up reforming in the South Lincs Fen League Div 3 (North). No new ground will ever be perfect. The school I taught at for many years went to a new build for my last 10 years. Those designing it (including me for the Music Dept) visited other schools that had done similar, learnt from them things they wish they'd done differently, but mistakes were still made, with limitations of finance inevitably leading to some. But, as with our stadium, give me what was new any day.
I'll give them an extra cheer for you this evening. UTP!
