Any color pictures I`ve seen of the ground that old had the barriers red, so a bit of blue paint on them would certainly have made a difference.

Never understood the red barriers, probably red lead,even the rs had white.

Not sure it wouldn`t have fallen down by itself in a few more years. The photos I`ve ever seen of it the terracing looks like its already crumbling away and the barriers look like they are pointing in all different directions.

New barriers were put in when that horrible fencing went up - no crumbling terraces either - I have photos of the new barriers which were rectangle in shape & the round ones getting removed ....

I imagine the seats could easily be ripped out if hooligans wanted to do it - Does BMD have areas in the future behind each goal for seats to be removed if the law changes?

I the days of computerisation standing should be safe lets face it the KOP stands most of the game ...

I think there was something mentioned about safe standing areas in the future that could see the capacity to 60k in the future. They do it in Germany for their domestic games, but have to go all seater for Europe. Dortmond get about 16k extra in for league games compared to European games doing this.
