We should be rebuilding the whole stand.and integrating the scoreboard into the new stand. I've mentioned Warrington Wolves having a decent terrace but saw the Boston main stand the other day and it looked good, something we could do along the Bishop street side.

If it's based on the Harrogate FC Stand it should have turnstiles at both the North Stand End & Quarry Lane End. This would allow the option of use by away supporters when the North stand is full and/or additional home fans when we draw Man U in the cup! With proper segregation (as at Harrogate) the stand could also be used on some match days by both sets of fans.
Without this type of flexibility I've mixed feelings. The existing stand is an eyesore so it would be great to do something. Then again, at the moment we're using, on average, just over 30% of the existing capacity.

It’s an out of date dump and an eyesore. The rest of the ground looks really impressive, especially at night. The BS needs a complete replacement. I assume it’s wood and probably has asbestos in it too
