Stands
The current stadium holds 19,052 supporters and has four stands: Lorne Street opposite to The Railway Paddock, and The Bycars End facing the Hamil Road End.
The Lorne Street Stand is relatively new, seating 5,000, with 48 executive boxes, however it is yet to be completed. At the time of the stadium's construction it was intended to be the grandstand stadium.
The away stand has a capacity of 4,500. It holds the electronic scoreboard.

Famous quotes containing the word stands:
“The dissident does not operate in the realm of genuine power at all. He is not seeking power. He has no desire for office and does not gather votes. He does not attempt to charm the public, he offers nothing and promises nothing. He can offer, if anything, only his own skin—and he offers it solely because he has no other way of affirming the truth he stands for. His actions simply articulate his dignity as a citizen, regardless of the cost.”
—Václav Havel (b. 1936)
“Anybody who runs is a VC. Anybody who stands still is a well-disciplined VC.”
—Stanley Kubrick (b. 1928)
“Under bare Ben Bulben’s head
In Drumcliff churchyard Yeats is laid.
An ancestor was rector there
Long years ago, a church stands near,
By the road an ancient cross.
No marble, no conventional phrase;
On limestone quarried near the spot
By his command these words are cut:
Cast a cold eye
On life, on death.
Horseman pass by!”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
