Re: CLARETS PLAYERS PORTRAITS TURF MOOR.
After being commissioned and paid for by the supporters groups, it's a pity that the Club apparently didn't value and appreciate them. Obviously not enough flashing lights!

I think they’d look nicer now, mounted on the black walls

Re: CLARETS PLAYERS PORTRAITS TURF MOOR.
Can the club not put flashing lights round the edges of each picture? That way the fans get their pictures back on the wall and Mr Pace gets his flashing lights

Re: CLARETS PLAYERS PORTRAITS TURF MOOR.
Mrs T and me came to the Turf this afternoon and this time came down Tod Road and then turned along Harry Potts way.
Don't normally come this way so what hit us was the full gruesomeness of the black walls that just stretch on and on and on.
They are truly awful. They badly need some colour and those pics returning.
Without anything to break up the black it's like approaching a morgue... a cemetery...a funeral parlour.

My guess is they don't want them back because they have something better planned.

Last time I was at the Turf digital versions of the old player portraits were being shown on the big screens outside of the ground as we were queuing to get in, presumably on a loop.

Not for the first time, I'll reply to this. We were told they will be returned to their original positions once the ongoing work is complete, but this information was only received after we'd queried it when they were removed without us even being told.
Re: CLARETS PLAYERS PORTRAITS TURF MOOR.
Tony - What is the ongoing work, do we know how long it's going to take before it's completed and how does it prevent them being put back now?ClaretTony wrote: ↑Tue Mar 29, 2022 4:20 pmNot for the first time, I'll reply to this.

Trees in tubs were being positioned outside the Longside main entrance yesterday.

More obstacles to try avoid tripping over when leaving after the match

The players from bygone days is the thread that links us together, ditto supporters of the past, my grandchildren like my children know I'm a dyed in the wool Claret, I want them to understand why and our legends should never take second place to pizza signs.

Re: CLARETS PLAYERS PORTRAITS TURF MOOR.
5 years today since at least one of the boards went up. I've tweeted the club & chairman asking when they'll be getting put back up. Hopefully I'll get a reply
Re: CLARETS PLAYERS PORTRAITS TURF MOOR.
I tweeted the chairman too looking for some update on CT’s info. I’m not holding my breath on a response and I know it’s not the most important thing in the world but a lot of supporters feel strongly about this and it’s appalling the way this was handled. Total lack of respect for the fans imo.
