Brick clean up

[IJN]

I've asked the question of Jamie Yabsley via text yesterday. No reply yet, but I will get one.

Anyone remember how much a brick cost last time?

 

[IJN]

I think I paid £35 for mine.

From memory this has been suggested over the years a few times. I think it was something to do with the bricks breaking up if they are moved?

They appear to be engraved standard block paving bricks, so unless they have been set in concrete or any other bonding they should be robust enough to be moved quite easily by hand.

I think when we bought them we were told it was a temporary location. But I can understand anyone responsible for their future now might grasp at any reason to avoid the cost of moving them.

The bricks are good quality and correctly Laid in sand. They need a careful clean and some of the lettering needs touching up and repainting - relatively small number

The edging bricks which were set in cement mortar have suffered decay - probably sulphate attack and expansion of the mortars

Won’t be moved - too many and too costly I suspect

Would definitely buy more bricks, been a few more green blooded rug rats added to the tribe since (not my doing may I add)

They were power washed clean a couple of weeks ago

It's definitely something the club should look into even if it was to part fund the corners to be filled in to push the capacity up to 20k and complete the stadium. I'd purchase a couple more for sure.

 

[JannerinCardiff]

I’d definitely buy at least 2 bricks.

If the bricks were laid vertically you would have to take into consideration the height of the structure.As in a supermarket , the optimum place is at eye level .Those with bricks at the top or the very bottom may feel they have been disadvantaged in some way . However these problems are not insurmountable.

Some of the lettering had eroded and needed touching in - power washing was not part of the spec and may have washed out more
