I'd be happy just for some cannons to go off blasting green confetti everywhere! Would certainly kick the Lincoln Air Horn into touch!

A simple one

The letters for each Row to be painted back on in Block 14 the amount of times people dont have clue what row is what because the lettering has rubbed away over the years. Every game for the last 5 years i reckon. Thats how your smarten up home park just a little bit of paint here and there

Whilst I appreciate we ended up with a refurb instead of new build, is there still scope to do something eye-catching eg something like the ship on the old Drake Cinema but fashioned into a Mayflower replica for the ‘Bobbys Garden’ area? (I think the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have something similar in their stadium which fires an actual broadside when they score a touchdown!! That may be taking things a little far and would probably trigger a few coronaries in the Mayflower! :lol: ).

I want us to have one of these.



Have a word with James Brent he has a small version in the old Pavilions swimming pool. :D

It would be very unique. I’d be the only homeowner in Plymouth with a lighthouse in my garden! :D


Haha I won't change it then! :facepalm:

What about using the life size Smeaton's tower as a floodlight ?

A proper good TV type scoreboard, I think it brings a lot to a stadium

More activity outside the ground before the game, bringing people to the ground earlier and increasing revenue

A ‘petting zoo’ by the family area?

I like that idea except that the pitch would be in darkness for periods of 10 seconds. If you stand on the Hoe at night and look south you will see what I mean. When the light flashes count to nine and it will flash again. I would assume Smeaton's Tower would have had the same signal length as it is unique to a particular lighthouse.

Unique selling point? The players adopt a musical statues approach during the period of darkness?

Definitely a Score Board - if Torquay can afford one surely we can?

This pic is where I was suggesting there could be some signage. Where the stadium emerges over the trees would look great with a simple Plymouth Argyle FC wording.
