Also how would moves like this make you guys feel? I'm pretty fine with it Edited April 2, 2019 by matty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why wouldn't it be cool for the stadiums to make more revenue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Initial B Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Wembley hosts concerts and things and protects the turf using a hard raised overlay before laying down items on top the the field. Works for about a week at a time. Shouldn't be a problem. ted 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDNFootballer Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Pacific FC hopes purple reigns on home turf “All our seats will be purple, and all season ticket purchasers get a jersey, so it’s going to look great,” said Simpson. <br> Speaking of seats, Simpson is adamant that 6,000 will be in place at Westhills Stadium in time for the franchise inaugural game April 28 against HFX Wanderers of Halifax. But he openly admits it’s going to be a race to the finish. “There are a lot of logistics involved, but absolutely the stadium will be ready for play,” said Simpson. “A lot of people are referencing the same situation as Save-on-Foods Memorial Centre, where workers were working up to the last minute before the first event in 2005 [a Rod Stewart concert].” Quipped Simpson: “There could be some wet paint signs.” But they will be in purple. Simpson said Pacific FC has surpassed the 1,000 plateau in season tickets and that more than 2,500 tickets have been sold so far for the inaugural game in the 28th. https://www.timescolonist.com/sports/pacific-fc-hopes-purple-reigns-on-home-turf-1.23781607 Obinna, johnyb and ted 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a matter of assembling the parts and pieces and a little adjustments here and there. Although it's tight, it can be done. Unfortunately a completely built stadium could generate some media-attention, which they could use by the looks of it. ted 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was also thinking that in the 2nd week of May we have rugby there as well, so it has to be right asap. edit: I just changed my post to react to Ted laughing, so basically I lost what I said originally. This looks like it is to make Ted look silly for laughing, but it is just because I screwed up.

Cheeta Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Really want some serious trials before launching so yeah, seem to be cutting things a little close. Sure it will all be fine but easy to understand why you'd want to work out as many bugs as possible before hand and there is no substitute for a real life 3D model to work with. Can't help but recall they had to send in the tradesmen to tighten all the fasteners at BMO Field after a couple of matchs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unnamed Trialist Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 I was looking for pictures, and saw that the Westshore Rebels pointy-ball team will be playing out of the stadium this summer as well. It is going to get a high use in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
