Can't see the problem with the thread myself. I'm delighted the dugouts are finally being modernised as the old style looked very junior club these days. If they bring the ground up to the standard needed for us to host games that'll bring in more dosh rental wise then even better. Good move all round.

Looking forward to seeing them. Cannot understand the negative comments.

Same boat.

Its not often we see many alterations at McDiarmid, however minor, so interested to see how they end up.

If anyone is at any of the UEFA under 19 games, please get a few pictures and put them up. :cool:

Those big comfy leather seats with the Saints badge embroidered on will look great.  Will completely change the view looking across towards the Main Stand, with the tunnel also looking different I would guess.  Folk sitting immediately behind the technical area will be well in the loop on what's going on; what's being discussed, players in the cream puff about being subbed, who's about to get stripped to come on, etc.

Good that McDiarmid has been chosen as a venue, hopefully we get a decent bit of cash for it. Looking at the fixture dates, they're very much in and round the Betfred Cup group matches. 

Haven't really heard much about the tournament, just got the following from Wikipedia:

women's under 19 UEFA championships.  

4 grounds being used; group A that Scotland qualify for as hosts, along with France, Holland and Norway, matches are being played at St Mirren Park and Firhill.

Group B matches at McDiarmid and Forthbank, Stirling, host Germany, England, Spain and Belgium.  

Matches at McDiarmid:

16 July: England v Germany

19 July: Belgium v Germany

22 July: Belgium v England

25 July: Potential World Cup play-off 

 

Semi-finals at Firhill and St Mirren, with the final being held at St Mirren as well.  

Quite a west coast slant to the tournament, looks like they were keen to minimise travelling for the teams.  Would have thought Livingston or Airdrie would be better than 3 sided Firhill, though can't imagine the crowds will be too big either way.

The 4 semi-finalists go forward as Europes representatives in next years women's under 20 FIFA World Cup.

Livi and Airdrie are both astro though.

St Mirren have had a good history of putting on under 21 football and it does have good transport links so I can see why it was chosen to host those final games.
