jorvik_latic Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Change the company if they don't turn up on a match day to check it out. You can't change the company, they've already installed it??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jorvik_latic Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 They can get the maintenance from someone else though once the guarantee is over, If it's faulty, then it's not fit for purpose and not covered by guarantee but rather than the Consumer Rights Act and we have 6 years to pursue remedy.

blueatheart Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Buy cheap, buy twice. Pretty much sums up every player latics have spent money on in the last few seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singe Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Pretty much sums up every player latics have spent money on in the last few seasons. Indeed, I hope that the longer deal for Gerrard is a sign of a change in tactic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossopLatic Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 I know it will be cold, but why would they heat the PA Glossop? Maybe not the PA system but certainly hope the players are on fire next Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that apply the same way when the purchaser is a commercial business? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jorvik_latic Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Does that apply the same way when the purchaser is a commercial business? Hmmm, true. Depending on when we entered into contract with them, if it was before 01/10/15 it will be covered by the Supply of Goods and Services Act. I presume remedy would just be through courts for B2B now?

Dick_Valentine Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Did anyone manage to keep dry in the North stand yesterday? I've just about dried out after sitting on the tenth row. What a thoroughly miserable afternoon it was and to top it off I left at 85 mins and missed the 'action'. I've stood on many an open terrace in the 80s & 90s and got a good soaking, but somehow sitting down in it feels much worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stagger Lee Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 1. Sorry mr Valentine but maybe being older has made it seem worse! I swear that a game just a few years ago in Canberra ( winter and night-time admittedly) was the coldest I have ever been in my life at any venue anywhere around the world, and given the decades spent at Ice station Zebra and other notoriously cold places around the world it surprised me no end. Also most of the stadiums in Australia do not even have roofs or if they do they do little to stop the rain if it's any more than drizzle. I'm not being blind to the design faults of the north stand but my first call would definitely be 'maybe its my age' rather than the venue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Burns Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Ahhh oh I remember when people piffed in the general direction of my almost pointless roof observations, back in the construction days. Clearly designed by somebody without local knowledge. Nevermind, I like the rain ❤️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick_Valentine Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Have you thought about looking for spare unreserved seats higher in such cases? That's what I did. My ST is on the 3rd row, so got as far back as I could. Getting in at 2pm next time to take my seat on the back row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly designed by somebody without local knowledge. Nevermind, I like the rain ❤️ I piffed and I still do. Yesterday was the first time I've been rained on. 8 rows back. Pretty much every stadium in the world will see you get wet in conditions like that in the lower rows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bozman Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 I sit on the back row and for the last 20 minutes of the first half even we got wet. That's the first time it's happened though. It was blowing in on the swirling wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got wet five rows from the back, so we moved to spare seats on the back row, where we got less wet. It reminded me of the worst weather I ever experienced in the Chaddy, when the rain was blowing in and even reaching the back row. That was also against Millwall.

Didn't we rescue the small bunch of away fans from the open Rochdale Road terrace in that game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz_Oafc Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Is the Radiology unit still planned for the new stand? I thought it was supposed to have some sort of link up with the hospital (based on information I'd had from the hospital side) but it's just been announced that there will be a £1.2m expansion of the current radiology department including a new state-of-the-art CT scanner.

laticsrblue Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I've not noticed before and sorry if it has already been posted - according to the official Latics season ticket sale page it looks like the north stand now has a sponsor it's the TLH Auctioneers North Stand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
