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!).
I want us to have one of these.

It would be very unique. I’d be the only homeowner in Plymouth with a lighthouse in my garden!
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.German Shepherd wrote: What about using the life size Smeaton's tower as a floodlight ?

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

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