Smell of tean spearritt
I heard from a good source several of the urinal cakes from the gents behind the north stand (goldstone) had been saved and would be released back into a urinal at falmer. It would be nice to recapture that smell of albion history.

That is both amusing and disgusting. Well done.

East Stand
Entrances are in the top third of the stand and the terracing comes in 2 phases - in-situ (cast on site and built off the sloping chalk) and precast (on the steel frame)
East Stand in-situ terracing will be completed in the next 2/3 weeks, the half dozen precast rows (top) that bear onto the steel and retaining wall will follow.
Thanks to Jack Straw for putting the photo's up, I wouldn't have a clue how to get them to that quality

Natterjack,1 more question (for now),what is the thinking behind casting the concrete on the chalk rather than just doing everything pre-fabricated.Is it down to expense?.

Growing old disgracefully
I had never realised that steel and concrete could be sooooooooooooooooo exciting.
Or me - BUT IT IS NOW!!
Brilliant Pic's (again), Mr S

It's cheaper to cast on site using wet concrete rather than make the terrace elsewhere and transport it - it's the same end product.
The difference with the top section is that it would be more expensive to form on site as it is out of the ground and would require form-work and expensive shuttering
can't keep looking at such quality pics, keep doing sex-wee and the mrs is getting jealous cos not enough left for her!!!!!!!

It may be a question that nutterjack cannot or will not answer but do you know if the stadium actually has been designed in a way that will allow us to increase capacity should we need it? This seems to be what most fans are thinking....
