Harry Hugo, the chairman, said in the video above: “Welcome to Farnham Town, the all new look Memorial Ground. It’s, well, I’m standing on a tarmac car park.
“First and foremost, no puddles, no potholes. It’s just an absolute delight.
“And behind me, the Welcome to Farnham Town sign in front of four brand new turnstiles, which by the time the season starts, will be fully automated for people to be able to scan their season tickets and their tickets they bought online straight through.
“And obviously there still will be card and cash, so that will box the ideas to get people into the ground as fast as possible.
“And then we’re go through the time stop such so dissonance of results on the run-up.
“There you go, look. And then we come through into what is an enormous concourse, which we’ve just never had before.
“Because normally you came through and you were like already right next to the pitch and next to the burger van and next to everything else and it was just a huge huddle of people.
“I’ve just got loads of room for activities now and you can go this way up to the Clock End, in here to the pitch and more importantly now massive sign that says you can go this way to the fan zone, come with me…
“This used to be a car park. Now no longer. Now this is the fan zone. The Burger Man’s moved. This is a new loaded fries outlet. We’ve got a brand new club shop, which we’ll show you very soon.
“But the most important and biggest new addition is this huge, huge stretch tent, which means that in especially days like today, where it’s 32 degrees, we can actually get some shade. so, We’ve got benches, barrels, obviously a portable bar that we’ve just had delivered thanks to our partners at Morepour. This is not the only one you’ll see around the ground over the course of this video, but there is plenty of mobile bars being added to.
“And let’s go to hospitality. This is the 1906 club, come with me. Right, taking my sunglasses off, it’s nice and dark in here.
“And yeah, well, this is a building that we bought over the course of the last couple of weeks, renovated the whole thing.
“Brand new furniture, private bar, own toilets, trophies on display, coffee machines. TV streaming the games.
“This is a hospitality venue that is ready for 36 people to come and enjoy and packages are available online.
“The Clubhouse has had a renovation when it comes to audiovisual. Around me you can hear surround sound of the screens, we can choose what’s on.
“And there is three screens now. The middle screen will always, always show Farnham Town. Always. Whether or not it’s the game being streamed live into the Clubhouse, whether or not it’s the highlights and the Saj’s, beautiful commentary going on, but there is a full new audiovisual system in the Clubhouse to make it an even more immersive, much to experience.
“And the speakers go outside as well with more TVs. What more can you want?
“Now one of the most important things we’ve upgraded this entire summer, the club shop, was previously just a shed, now no longer.
“This club shop, everything you could possibly want from a Farnham Town point of view. Adidas, our own merchandise here, hoodies, caps, more caps than you could ever imagine, scarves, probably won’t need those today.
“Elliot’s in charge. How you doing? alright? And yeah, there’s so much stuff. Love this. This coach is where you’ll see that being rocked by the men’s and the women’s coaches. But there’s so much to come and see.
“And also today people are coming and picking up their home and away kits for the very, very first time.
Very, very exciting.
“All new stands, obviously. This is one of three stands that have gone in in the last six weeks. And also the scoreboard has moved.
“The facade, the fascia has gone onto the front of the Sir Alan Jones stand. And there’s just more room for standing up and seeing the football game. What more could you want?
“The all new Snack Shack, this is our tuck shop. Perfect for those under the age of 16, but also for those over the age of 16 who just love sweets, like me. This has got more sweets than you can shake a stick at, and a lovely new LED sign saying Snack Shack at the back. Fantastic!
“This is where another stand’s gonna go on in another four days, there’ll be another stand in there. But come with me to the LED screen.
“I’m not sure how easy this is going to show on video, but we’re to come right close. They’re not on right now, but LED advertising hoardings here. And we’re going to run all the way down. More LED advertising hoardings here behind the goal.
“And then the piece de resistance around the pitch, the enormous five and half meter big screen. It looks incredible. Are we having technical difficulties about it this morning? Of course we are. It’s just the first day of the pre-season at home. There’s always going to be a teething problems. I’m just hoping everything’s going to be okay over there.
“We’ve got one more update and it’s a bit more for the playing stuff. And last but not least, the new dugouts, 11 seats wide, home and away, bucket seats, obviously.
“There is a huge amount of improvement around the ground at Farnham Town this summer. Six weeks, unbelievable work from everybody involved. How we’ve managed to pull it off in such a short amount of time.”
Two months ago, Harry Hugo revealed how they made £100,000 in 7 days.
