All of these points made, from both sides, I think are valid, however the answer is staring folk in the face everytime they turn up at fir park........'fir park'.
The stadium is years past its best and I honestly think it puts people of coming to the games.
We need to spend to save and secure a future for the club by moving to a new purpose built stadium where, we can income generate...conferences, weddings and functions, schools, meals etc. I don't suspect that we will, at this time given the state of the place, be making much money from these sort of areas. Before any of you start throwing daggers, I had my wedding, a birthday party and recently a leaving party at FP, so I think I'm entitled to pass comment. If there is money being made from these areas currently, it certainly isn't being put back into the 'stadium', the pictures taken over the last cold snap are evidence of this.
Football is a business now, whether we (the supporter) like it or not. Fir Park is a traditional football ground which cannot facilitate the business ventures the club should be pursuing. Name me another SPL club that has not, over the past 5-10 years, invested significantly in their stadia? Exactly.
