Looks like it could do with it, the whole place is starting to look a bit down at heel from the outside. That giant mural of a black gentleman (hand on heart I have no clue who it is) in full SCFC regalia above the ticket office is starting to look more like a mosaic than a painting. Once the rot sets in you get so called 'broken window syndrome' whereby people walking by conclude that no one cares and no one is in charge and from there the whole place goes downhill in a jiffy  |

It could do with a couple of licks from a team of bulldozers!

Does anyone here agree that the corners could be filled in, or am I being silly...

Rig the exterior with Christmas lights so we can pretend to have a fancy light up stadium like Bayern Munich's.

Could do with a cleanup for sure. It's looked a bit tired for a while tbh.

its time the faye mural was replaced with a gordon banks one, sir stan and gordon banks adorning the ground would be perfect for the identity of the club, weve been fortunate to have 2 of the most iconic footballers of all time linked to stoke city... it should be embraced

I'm surprised we haven't painted the stanchions red and white. It would stay clean a bit longer and would look a bit more striking.
I know the corner thing get mentioned every day/week but the biggest issue is the width of the bog door in block 24. It's too bloody narrow for people going in and out at the same time.
More murals would be good in the concourses too.

If the stadium gets renamed then both the murals will probably come down as they were both to do with Britannia I think. They'll also need to change the white seats in the Seddon stand.

First it must be quite embarrassing for a current player and second they could be out of the door at a weeks notice and what do you do then, you can't really call the decorators back! |

They need to sort out that horrible PA system at some point, every time they bring a special guest onto the pitch I can't here what anyone is bloody saying!

Murals - 2 bob, get rid
White supports - paint red
PA - we need one that works
Corners - fill in ASAP
Access - fuck 'em, if the able bodied want to park on the doorstep then tough shit.

The PA system is unlikely to get resolved. It works 90% of the time, so that is probably enough really. Does annoy me when it does that horrible fizzing sound though lol. |

It is pretty much time on Faye at the front. Great player on his day but hardly what I call a club legend who warrants being on the stadium

What a bizarre comment Not really in so much as there are plenty of fit and healthy people who could walk to the ground from, say a 3 mile radius, that dont and expect to park right outside it. The issue IMHO isnt the parking its the public transport |
