Second the load any lintel supports ia actually a lot less than you might expect, 45 deg from each edge.Quote:

Is it set back from the pitch a bit or are there a couple more rows to go in the front?
Never considered the fat factor dong ;)
fom. It is set back from the pitch. Have heard that the pitch will be lenthened in that direction in the future
There are plans to extend the playing surface after the Europa game.Quote:

It was a genuine question though so I don't see why you're getting all defensive.
The founds were put into Harps stadium this year. The digging work started last year if you must know. The steel work to be put in the coming months.
As I said nigel just a bit of banter. Glad to hear you're making progress with your ground. Id prefer to be going to Stranorlar than the Pale anyday.Quote:

Haha. That's funny. The old "you can't talk, look at who you support" argument. Care to have a dig at any other LOI club's facilities? You'd have a fairly long list of complaints. You'd swear the Showgies was a fortress.Quote:
