No real concerns for me, I suppose the club could focus on making the MLSB a lot more commercially driven because as it stands the food options are basic and it is hard to be served on a busy match day.

No idea, I have not been to Meadow Lane for awhile now.

Have an actual alcohol bar in the Kop with a system of ordering food and drinks for half time pre - match so you can speed the system up

A tannoy system that you can hear  would be a start.

 

Non slip paint - or mix sand in it - on steps, as they are like ice when wet.

 

a one way system in the toilets where there are 2 doors. I have problems with my legs which makes this worse for me but often the queue to go in means you cant get out.

 

 

if you can sort those out I will add some more

There needs to be a better way to get served in the MLSB...the free for all is a joke and you can be waiting 15 minutes or more to even make eye contact with the bar staff..Doncaster have a queing system that works a treat and Notts should try the same. TBI or Navi for me and my mates on match days till its sorted (and believe me Notts, we sup some stuff so your missing out on plenty of cash in them tills)

Actually, it would be nice if the facilities included catering for overseas, especially the website. Perhaps offer live streaming for Non UK IPs at a fair rate?

Cold draught beer in the Kop

You Pies!

I know other clubs do this. Just a guy in the stands with a camera, following play, doesn't have to be too complicated.

Could even put Col on over the top for commentary. 

Thought i would add to this after a couple of things came to light at the Scunthorpe game.

1) In the Derek Pavis toilets there is no urinal low enough for small children to use

2) The catering is a joke, the 12 year olds employed have no clue whatsoever and nearly caused big trouble at half time

3) The stewards need to help the catering out at half time like they do for the tickets, queue people properly

4) How difficult is it to have enough hot dogs and sausage rolls available, this has never changed in all the years these have been available

Looking at the food my mates buy from Meadow Lane when they can get served it makes me glad I'm vegetarian

 

If they sell Pukka Pies why do they not sell the Potatoe, Cheese & Onion pies they make??!!! I'd buy one if they did

The food quality and catering staff needs alot of improvement. Even though there seems to have been a few changes, the food still isn't nice and the staff are still quite rude at times too. The food still tastes like its been left to just stay warm for hours.

 

The alcoholic drinks need to be abit better priced to compete with the navi, as they get the majority of the custom due to the prices.

Did @DangerousSausage say monorail?

An ultrasonic system for blasting pigeon poo off seats.

 

 

 

 

 

One club hung massive pictures of its legends up around the ground and on the sides of the stands a year or two back - Bournemouth? I wouldn't mind seeing something like that.

 

 

 

 

 

Take the roof off the JS stand. Make 'em suffer for their three points.

 

 

 

 

 

Plant some leylandii trees on Meadow Lane to block the view of that ground in West Bridgford from the Kop.

 

 

 

 

 

I'd love to see standing back, but it's not going to happen at clubs like ours where we only fill 25% of the ground anyway.

 

One thing Mr Hardy did get right is parts of the family stand as you walk along under the stand there’s like a comic style pictures and story depicting some of Notts best moments throughout our history which is really nice to see on a match day my kids love looking at it and asking if I was there for any of it some I can proudly say yes I was when I was your age others no far to young. 
On the subject of improvements I’m not sure there is an awful lot as it’s a lovely stadium, however I’ve always felt it was over ambitious size wise I’d much rather it of been built to a 15k capacity with the ability to expand if required as it breaks me seeing the huge empty space in the Sirrel although I do understand why Derek Built it the size he did as we were in a league with a lot other midlands clubs and looking to go back up.

@Pie since 89 we were in the top flight at the time the plans went in, so I can understand the reasoning for DP to create a 20000 all seater stadium as it would have been a similar size to the old one and I seem to think that there was talk at the time of 20K being introduced as the minimum capacity allowed. 

I was a little baffled reading this thread with members that haven't been active for ages and then I clocked the date of the posts!

I’ve just clocked the dates as well ???? hadn’t spotted that before no idea why it had surfaced to the top again
