JS's American Express Community Stadium Watch No.112 (11/3/11).

Massive tsunami in Japan. Incredible scenes on the telly this morning.
We're so flipping lucky we don't get events like that.
Stadium wise, TREES!
At last, the first trees (Limes - Tilia) are going in.
Avenue of 20 or so in the north-west corner of the site.
Cliff reinforcement continuing.
I'm told that the new footbridge and related bits should open in 2 weeks time.
Tranmere at home tomorrow and B'muff v Stains.
Could be almost home and dry tomorrow night.
3 lots of 5 coming up.
Thanks to one of my work colleagues for the "sheep shot".

Great photo's JS.

One thing puzzles me about the new railway bridge. It appears to have slopes on one side and steps on the other. This stands out more clearly on the latest aerial photos on the club site.

A bit of a challenge to any one in a wheelchair.

Or have I got this completely wrong?

Finishing touches indeed!

yay TREES, would prefer Silver Birches myself but there you go!

I think I agree with our green eyed friends from Croydon-yet another flat pack stadium to spoil the landscape.

Thanks again for your efforts Graeme-not easy now there's no gaps for you to poke your lens through...

On the A27 side of the railway (as opposed to the stadium side), there are steps and slopes.

On the stadium side, there's a shallow slope which goes down to meet the upward slope of the path.

Is there not a slope going in the other direction

Loving the Seagull shadow in Batch one - picture 2

I was just about to mention that - that would be amazing to actually paint that shadow on - almost Banksy-esque

Thanks as always JS. Great pix.
