North Terrace alllbion working party!
By Frank Stormont July 12 2008
After a suggestion on the messageboard this site steps into action as it starts the process of cleaning up the North Terrace and make Albion's own. Could you help on Saturday to move the process on?
After a suggestion on the messageboard this site steps into action as it starts the process of cleaning up the North Terrace and make Albion's own. Could you help on Saturday to move the process on?
Your Club Needs You!
Two members of this supporters' website spent most of Saturday starting the cleaning process of the North Terrace seats.
The plan is to remove the old white paint that a year or so ago was spelling out QUINS, clean the grim built up over the years and then to repaint certain of the seat bottoms so that they spell out either "Albion" or "PARFC". Both options are viable and we need an answer from the board before we finally complete the process.
After firstly attempting to remove the seats so that the paint could be removed off the seats was thwarted due to the bolts being firmly attached by rust or glue. Plan B was to pressure wash the paint off but the paint seems to too well adhered so the team have moved onto plan C.
Plan C is to apply paint stripper to the bottom of the seats and once the "stuff" has done it's work to remove the paint with water.
With around 340 seats to be treated it will not be a quick job so this is where you come in.
We would like a number of helpers next Saturday, 19th July, from 9am to help painting and washing.
The seats will then need to be cleaned of the green grime, seats oiled, decking cleaned and treated and finally the bottom of some seats painted!
We know that it will not be possible to do this all in one weekend but each stage can be done as a separate task making improvements to the Brickfields Stadium as we go.
If you can help please reply to this story, email or private message me, Balion Predator or noibla.

Re: North Terrace alllbion working party!
Hopefully next saturday should see the white seats gone with the north stand predominantly blue in rediness for the P.A.R.F.C. logo to give the arena more identity.
Fantastic to see a very good turn out of help in achieving the target today .Very well done to all, and a special thank you for the hot food from the club.

Re: North Terrace alllbion working party!
You shouldn't have taken it in the first place Mike. 
A big thank you to all who made it to the "CHEAP SEATS" project (b.b.b.) to help do a bit more to the stand, we spoke about another session next saturday but as you probably all know by now the club are hosting a league game, k.o. 3.00p.m. so Frank will be negotiating a program for next weeek, maybe finish a bit earlier or start at 8.00 etc.when he has an answer it will be posted on this thread, we have only four more weekends inluding next week before the first friendly at home on a saturday, and it would be nice to have it finished if possible, so next week will make a lot of difference to our plans, fingers crossed.
Semper Sersum.

Re: North Terrace alllbion working party!
i doubt the stand will open for the match next week, so is there really any harm in us working while the game goes ahead?? after all said and done we dont have that much time to get it completed.
just a thought

Re: North Terrace alllbion working party!
WE WILL NOT CLASH WITH THE TIGHT ONES, I MEAN TITANS.[b][u][/u][/b]
Frank has been told that the k.o. for the rugby league game has been put back to 7.00 p.m. or 19.00 hrs for all the service types amongst us, so there will be no clash with our efforts on Saturday as we will be well away by then.
Still awaiting confirmation of access but should hear soon, will post on here a.s.a.p.

Re: North Terrace alllbion working party!
Quite right scoreboardender about the wedding, but that won't effect us as long as we all park in the north end car park where the gate will be open for us at 9.00 a.m. this will leave the club house end parking free for the wedding guests etc.
So see you all there at 9.00'sh then.

Re: North Terrace alllbion working party!
Hi all, once again a big thank you to the club for providing our lunches today, and a special thanks to the catering staff who I know were very busy. Catering for more than a couple events at the same time.
The project of removing the white paint from the seats has been fulfilled.
We will next week endeavour to complete our aims by putting the PARFC logo onto the seats.
Thank you for the teams contribution today!!!!
Come on Albion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: North Terrace alllbion working party!
Yes Flanker a big thank you to the kitchen staff for lunch and a very welcome cold drink (juice not beer)
The seating is looking much better now.
All we need now is the quick approval from the club to go ahead with the paint for the new seating logo to paint it on next Saturday, time is of the essence I'm afraid.

Re: North Terrace alllbion working party!
I think that the club should have asked Y.A if they could paint on him first
I am writting this message slowly because yesterday after helping with the seats I managed to kill the hard drive on my computer. Think this was down to Scoreboard Ender making me jump when charging battery on Cider Drinkers car. I was fully charged
AAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLBBBBBBBBBBIIIIIIIIIOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNN
