Block 1 Image 5 - must've been a pretty serious accident?

Not really an accident.
They're just getting a briefing on what to do when the "1250 points crew" that didn't get a ticket start to explode when they find out that the "1000 points JCLs" got one.

Are they going to be putting any sort of fence at the entrance to village way? looks strange with a gate & nothing else.

Good to see the new Bennett's Field car park being put in already, and noticed that the Falmer Road/A27 approach junction n/b to the mini roundabout is also being widened. I think that was a requirement of the car park planning approval.

All good stuff...

Smashing pics. Everest. That entrance looks class.
And Jack Straw's Vipers Bugloss is coming along nicely.

I see they've got the bunting out as well, but I really, really hope we don't get balloons as well!

I'm on my way to The Amex for breakfast right now!!! Be nice for me to add some photos for viewing, rather than just looking at other's (although I have been extremely grateful!)

Top pics Everest. Seeing that smart signage outside the west stand, I've just remembered that there were going to be massive 'American Express Comunity Stadium' signs on the East Stand (40 metre long strips?), clearly visible from the A27. Has anyone passing the stadium seen any evidence of these going up?

Good to see St John's up to their usual professional standards with bloke in his Albion shirt

The Vipers Bugloss is sprouting up in patches all along Village Way, most of it is near the site entrance.

The bunting isn't actually to do with the club. They have the EF (education first) logo on them as there are a lot of foreign students milling around at Btn Uni.
Maybe the club should start charging EF for use of their fences.
