Reebok Stadium has certain similarities to Falmer - particularly our West Stand.
But how I envy their floodlight pylons. I've always loved the sight of floodlights, but not those strung along the roofs of stands. Does anyone else miss this fast disappearing feature on the urban landscape?
SEEDA funded road works was nothing like that - £5+ million if my memory serves me correctly. Buckinghams quoted the contract as being worth £60+ million. The £90 million quoted by the club is an all embracing figure which covers for instance all legal costs incurred throughout the protracted...
Natterjack - big ask I know but if you get a moment sometime, could you please let us have a picture or two of the excavation works on the west stand which of course is completely hidden from our view on the webcam. Many thanks.
I wouldn't think that Poyet rates him particularly - except that he is the best available to do a certain job - and that is to reinforce in that part of the field, a major problem area that has cost us so dearly this season and last.
I don't think that we need a winger - it's clear that McNulty...
Well spotted. I think the big day is likely to be Friday as the crane needs to untangled and raised - which according to NJ takes a whole day. JS could be in for a spectacular morning on Friday.
And another thing - I have noticed that half-times, including Premiership, are now creeping up towards 20 minutes.
Watching Sky last night, I was staggered how long after all the other 7.45pm kick offs BHA's game finished.
Speaking as someone who is a bit fussy about punctuality, I'm very...
Chelsea were absolutely superb in defence - and that included Drogba and Anelka. Poyet should play our boys the video of the second half over and over again to show them that defending involves 11 players. Work ethic, stamina and fitness were out of this world. And we're talking about players of...
Unbelievable. There was no apparent progress mid-morning, but it's popped into full view in the last three hours. Temporary supports going in tomorrow perhaps? Plus Jack Straw. This is all too distracting - I've got a living to earn.
I think NJ said that the temoprary pillars were happening this week. But I would imagine that this has not been a very productive week due to weather. Can't see any progress on the third section of the arch, possibly due to wind conditions. Reports of major excavation work on west side will...
Unfortunately Slade was never able to instill the collective responsibilty of defending into the team. Really, that was all he got wrong and he will be remembered as a decent bloke and a good man manager, but not a great coach. How he must regret not having had a clear-out of the coaching team...
Absolutely unbefuckinglievable! I wonder if Jack Straw's reading this and preparing to intercept on the M23. This photographic record of our new home going up just gets better and better. Natterjack's got some new pics of the first two sections of the arch on the webcam thread.
Superb pictures NJ. Great to make sense of the tangle of white steelwork seen from the webcam. Do you know when the two temporary supports for the roof truss are going in?
