If they painted faces on the seats & played the piped music from the late 80s you wouldn't need to open the ground to species.

Which species are you most concerned about?

I once planted trees at Holmewood. They were a strange breed - the people, not the trees.

For my sins, I have delivered mail on Holmewood. Most folk, like people everywhere were as right as rain, but there were some characters, I have to say.

I was hoping to hear more about the concession stands around the ground a really good noodle bar may temp me out of the coral a little more often . I do enjoy the diversity of our support always nice to share a glass of large with those on the pop stand !

One of the better things about the ground not being 'compartmentalised' [is there such a word?] into separate stands is that it gives 'niche' food and drink stalls a better chance of being viable than if they only had one stand to sell to. It does tend to be just burgers, chips and pies at most away grounds.

When we were at valley parade I remember being in a huge queue for beer and food, whilst leeds fans a few metres away had an empty bar that we couldn't get to for the locked separation barrier.

It's rat burgers and chips at Odsal too from what I've seen. There have been fleeting attempts at decent food in the stadium but nothing in the past few years I'd ever touch.

I'm amazed a curry stall has never taken off.

At the very least we ought to be able to get a pie.

Leeds fans would have been at the Pims & prawn sandwich stalls.
