What main parts? A third of the Lyall gates and the World Cup statue?
What else is being preserved?

I get that they are Iconic and should be preserved and for the most part they are but its not like they are hundreds of years old and game with the building when we took the keys. They went up in '56 so its seems a bit strange to get hung up on the bits of gate that weren't preserved considering the whole ground and its 112 year history will be gone in a few months...

No football museum would care. No-one even went to our one! The main parts are being preserved, that'll do me.

Putting them is storage is stupid.
Chucking them away is stupid
Leaving for the contractors to strip and find their way on to ebay from some scum bag builder would be stupid
Putting an announcement out saying 'Take what you want' would be carnage.
This seems the most sensible way, although I think they should have offered all STH the chance to have their seat free of charge, instead of making people like me nick it.

To be fair I couldn't give a shit about the rest of the stuff listed there but as I say, imo the gates are sacred and should be retained by the club in their entirety, or at least donated to a football museum.
My mrs does say I'm a bit of an hoarder, so maybe it's just me!!

Was it a dog turd from a dog owned by one of the players? If so my bid is £50 and I'll collect.
