I think the commercial team are doing a great job of branding the Keepmoat!

I like the look of that. Good work by the commercial team there!

Nice - but on a blue background........why not red, or even red and white striped possibly

I imagine they're on each of the coloured corners. Looks really good!

Aye, and the colours are to help with the stewarding/policing.

Hopefully the corners become red at some point should be doable.

Because unlike us the Stewards and Coppers need colors to tell them which is the south east corner and which is the north east. Just imagine eh if they were all painted red, it would be chaos ;)

It looks really good, and I imagine they aren't too costly for the club to replace if we change sponsors or players leave etc.,

I'd imagine there would be ways around the corner thing. For example, they could just letter the corners.

Bit advanced is that letters idea - I'm thinking if colours are out, then we go for shapes, or Disney characters...  :facepalm:

Why not go for a play school theme and have windows? Seriously though they look good and it will start to feel more like home at long last

This is a really great step, and makes it feel much more like home. That and the change in the colour and design of tickets - it's the small things that make a difference.

One piece of constructive feedback, why not put rovers legends up there? Like at the Emirates? That way when players inevitably leave new ones won't have to be replaced.

We could even have a vote for the top 12 players?

Anyway, great job

Or have the worst posters of the week from here on each corner like naughty boys! :chair:lol

That wasn't dig at you by the way Ditch, sounds a top idea :thumbsup:

I just hope they replace the shitty Rovers flag outside and then put flags around the stadium itself. Brilliant start though but legends might have been better and cheaper in the long term than existing players.

I imagine the legends would be difficult if they didn't have a One Call shirt on. (I'd hazard a guess that One Call paid for the banners?).

They do look good though!  :scarf:

I noticed it tonight and it's certainly a step in the right direction. Not all corners yet.

Obviously the red background would be better, but that could be a massive paint job.

Am I the only one that thinks they look cheap? I mean why not paint the corners red, and get some professional looking transfers to go over, just looks like advertisement for the one call insurance.
On a positive note, I'm glad the club took on board what has been said. Just a shame it's in the usual cheap way!

Cant we have a word with Johnstone's, seeing as we won the first ever JPT?  If they donate the red paint, I'm sure the club could get some volunteers to slap it on. 

Plus it would be great publicity for both the club and Johnstones

Kia moved in to the old Harley Davidson showroom recently and contractors gave the grey exterior a makeover with red and I thought that's just what the Keepmoat needs.

We saw it today when renewing our season tickets, it did look very impressive, does anyone know if there will be more than just the 3?  Even against the blue it looked good.   :scarf:

Only one small problem I can see, since the banners use images of players from the current side, they might become out dated quite quickly. It is not a problem if they are updated quite regularly.

I think it's a very smart move. I have been impressed with some of the murals that have appeared around the stadium and at the training ground.

We've moved on a bit since Saunders used to give his press conferences in the janitors cupboard. At least the backdrops are more representative of DRFC and our history.

Has anyone got a picture of the mural on the stairwell of the East Stand main entrance? I'm sure you'd agree it's very impressive.
