Where's Max?

Did Glazier have a wall before or has one been renamed?

 

[SkyblueDad]

That’s good news and perhaps indication we might be a little more than just tenants wonder who paid.

Yeah if you go into the article it shows the old one

 

[AJB1983]

The ‘older’ walls need a bit of a touch up too. The brick facades are looking a bit worse for wear. The newer ones are much more pronounced (Hudson and Glazier walls).

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

I think Ryton might have a little makeover too now they’ve done the Higgs Centre and Ricoh

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

I still look at them and wish they'd done them in blocks of either all black or all gold. Looks so untidy having them randomly placed.

 

[Saddlebrains]

Decent that is, good start.

Be great to see a new badge on the outside and inside of the place. And also of course a good jet wash of the exterior

That's very welcome news, I will check out my brick when we get back to our home ground.

Has the giant faded red Ricoh signs been taken down yet or is it not officially The Coventry Building Society Arena until the 1st July?

No, just a window

They're doing the bricks too. Much needed

I was surprised watching the Where Eagles Dare about Palace on Prime, that there's a Glazier Lounge. He only played 106 games for them so must have made quite an impression.

 

[Legia Sky Blue]

Before they took on the nickname 'Eagles', Palace were known as 'The Glaziers' so nothing to do with our Bill

Good on them! It's like supporting a proper football club again! PUSB!

I bet Grendel will find some negative post about the clean up and put a damper on things

I'd love to see the Coventry City sign on the old Main Stand put up somewhere too!

I thought most of Highfield Road got auctioned?

Yes I'm sure it could be replicated or similar!

I have to find mine ! Then with a sharpy black pen , colour the gold so I can see it

Ah, cheers..That makes sense!

Here's a idea, make a new one with the same design.

Bricks needed cleaning, but does anyone else think the signs look cheap and tacky? There was nothing wrong with the old ones.

Thanks mate

 

[shmmeee]

Signs do have a touch of “Robins is our King” graphic design about them. But whatever, better than nothing and a bit of club history on the ground is always good.

Me too.

Slightly, but unlike the previous ones, they scream Coventry City. Something that actually makes it feel like our ground.
