Riverside Stand - Sink or Swim ?

[I Ronic]

When you're an immigrant who arrives in a country with virtually nothing and become so very, very, excessively  wealthy it's just a drop in the ocean to indulge one's hobbies with what one will never miss. What it does is to cement Fulham to the site and make staying in the PL essential - so investment in the football side. So if it takes a few of the prawn sandwich brigade to achieve that then so be it.

I remember the old Riverside stand being built at about £200k, wasn't it? There was criticism at the time that the money should go into the team instead, with Portsmouth cited as an example and for a while they were successful. The argument was that to build a new stand would be even more expensive in the future - and wasn't it!

All to stop us changing ends at half time....

I think that £250,000 was the figure that was banded around for many years. I used to stand on the riverside terrace and wasn't happy when I had to move the the Hammersmith End.

Just googled that. £250,000 then is £42 million now 😳

In the Benfica programme I recently acquired, Tommy Trinder mentioned the first estimate was £10,000 but the final cost rose to more than £200,000.

Which is why they wanted to do it when they did, I often wonder if it was worth it. We couldn't watch the boat race any more either.

and the half a crown I dropped on the Riverside Terracing is buried under the new stand which will make it even more difficult for me to find.
