Wasn't there supposed to be stone cladding around the entrance? Started as Portland but got cost-engineered, but I thought to cheaper stone.

correct, and look what they done, two walls different

Shambles but who is surprised. Green Genie are the green shades that bad ??  I might go up Friday have a look myself

Jon Back how about answering my extremely polite question on FB 4 days ago (copied into Punchy) over all the 40 years of memorabilia missing from the FP......Starnes and Cowdrey had their mitts on it for a memorabilia fair so where is it now please.

That's only recently.  Back in the day Nool was so far up Ed's bum it would have taken dynamite to get him out.

Recently..  Nool realising where his bread is buttered, attempted to put down Ed in a move to colour his favour with Jane Hallett.  That ended in an embarrassing slap down for Nool when Ed put him firmly in his place.  It was hilarious really...

It goes back a bit beyond that, I would say a couple of years when the Herald stopped becoming a Brent propaganda sheet.

Speaking of Newells cringeworthy attempts at being the self appointed Hallett Internet attack dog, it was funny when he tried to take on the Crime reporter at the Herald and it predictably ended badly for him

Enjoy...

The bloke is an utter buffoon. If he was of even average intelligence he'd be dangerous.

Better view of main entrance and they decided to put in a down pipe and drainage from that roof.

If the brief was supposedly to preserve the "Old Gal", then on the exteriors its failed. It looks like a cheaply knocked up shed on a small town industrial estate No architectural merit whatsoever.

Its not much better pitch side where again it looks lashed up, as though the money ran out and then got hastily finished. it doesn't look classic, it doesn't look new, it ooks cheap.

I suppose we should be grateful not to have to look at a rotting hulk but surely we could have done better than this.

How many men to drill one hole, two have cameras

No rent and rates for two years?

Correct, and Tudor said it reached the maximum (500k) that government rules allow councils to not collect.

Money taken away from the sick, the elderly and the poor of Plymouth.

Anyone could join the farpost and anyone could get in on matchdays, not the case with Mcguires mates only bar.

It wasn't a members bar, with members and day members on match days?

My memory of it definitely differs to yours.

Having looked at the GOS photos that obviously is not the finished article.

Indeed and there are 40 years of memorabilia completely missing....Jon Back is simply refusing to answer very polite questions as to its whereabouts as is McGuire who also had his mits over it doing a fair at some point. Starnes was involved.
Liam McGuire is playing ugly dumb with a colleague so we go to Hallett.

Correct....
However having seen McGuires set up again with grandads all sat at trestle tables I cannot imagine anyone who wasn't already a senior dribbler having any desire to put up with the mullet brothers and obscene puppetry.

Bollocks. Not anybody could get in on match days - in theory only members and 'special' guests - and there was a waiting list for membership...  

You should know that, having (supposedly) worked at the FPC?

After 2001 you don't know?  LOl...  That's almost a generation ago.

Anyway... Sad to know really that even in your era..  Out of the many thousands who attended every week, according to you, it seemed only a few hundred wanted into the FPC, if what you say is correct, that anyone who wanted in, got in!    Do you think the lack of interest was maybe because you worked there?

No wonder you think the current GT arrangement won't work.  Just remember...  You're not working for them.

PS.  How come you can see what I write if you have me blocked?  You're telling porkies about blocking me aren't you?

If you block someone you can see that they have posted and choose to read it. Its a bit of s shit function really as if you feel that strongly to do that, then the chances are you will click to open it rather than skipping by.

AS for the FPC, I certainly never had a problem getting in, it being a totally different concept to the Super Fan led Aviva Fest that McGuires Bar is.

Furthermore the question of the Memorabilia is a valid one and warrants an answer.
