    You could tell what the state of the toilets and the warmth of the water was from images of the KCOM?

    Well, they were on Twitter, and I read the other comments. Not entirely difficult

    You said looking at the pictures...Then went on to list those things. No mention of reading about it. You gave the impression you had psychic powers.

    The SMC have got round this issue, by spending naff-all on maintenance for ten years now.

    Those new extra floodlights installed themselves, likewise the new dug outs, and press boxes they had to install when we reached the PL. All free those. The pitch cuts and relays itself too by magic. Those automated turnstiles just turned up one morning too and installed themselves. To say they have spent 'naff all' on maintenance is ridiculous.
    The eggchasers are moaning about a bit of dust on seats that haven't been used for 14 months, bird ****, a broken toilet seat and low water pressure. FFS. Did none of them ever go to the old boulevard ? The only running water there was the piss running down the back of the 3p stand.

    So because a 100 year old stadium was crap the new purpose built 46 million pound new one has to be the same, right o.

    The floodlights, dug-outs and press boxes aren't maintenance, they're new installations and as you rightly say, were a Premier League requirement, so should have been paid for by City, not by the SMC (they're one of the examples of the Allams loading City costs onto the SMC to artificially bump up their losses, while making City's figures better).

    The stadium is very tatty, the spend on maintaining the structure of the building, seats, facilities etc, has been way below what it should have been.

    Not at all, I just take an interest in the running and finances of the community stadium built at the local tax payers expense. We all should.

    Didn't the rugby league make Fc play most games away from the Kcom because of the Covid issue . If so not fault of the SMC . The contract Fc have may state X amount of rent pay no matter how many games a played. Because of the virus a lot of things have changed , also haven't the government given RL millions to help them through the pandemic.

    I really don't know, but would like to. Facts and figures seem to be in short supply.

    Why would the league make them play away from the KCOM, there's no fans attending, so I don't see how COVID would effect where they were played?

    Of the £300m government sport bailout, Rugby Union got £135m, Rugby League got £13m, not sure why there was such a massive difference.
