The membrane is about halfway across now. Once that's done I wonder what the next step for the pitch is?

Are these confirmed Blue ? Any logo being incorporated ie BHA FC across the upper west or whatever ?

Or is it just a big suprise ?

Hebbard said yesterday that the seats will be ALL blue, with a few being ALL white and a VERY few being yellow........we were guessing that was for the beak !!!

Maybe a thin layer of earth, then the undersoil heating.
Haven't seen that go in yet.

Have they finished the drainage and irrigation as far as you know Ev?

 

[Everest]

I think they have at the north end.
I suspect it's still to be installed fully by the south stand yet as there has been a lot of plant movement there.
In fact it looks as though they are busy doing the western side now.

My opinion of course, may be wrong.

from the 1901 newsletter sent yesterday

The weather's been kind to us this month and we've made good progress on the installation of the pitch. Sub-contractor Kestrel have been laying the underground drainage and installing the boilers and irrigation tanks for the undersoil heating and irrigation system – we should be ready to start laying the lower rootzone at the end of the month.

Soil by the looks of it from 12:45 onwards.

Seeds I want to sow my seeds.

I still have Goldstone grass in a pot at home. Do you reckon I nick some seed from this and smuggle it into the AMEX and sow it?!

Just spent an age looking at the 16.30 shot, blown up and focusing on the spreading of the dirt. The gradual change away from white to brown is quality a major turning point I believe.

 

[Marc]

yep the pitch works are well and truly underway now!

Reckon they will finish putting all the rails in first, so still got a while to go I reckon! West Stand will take ages!!!

Thats not soil their spreading but shingle .Seeding end of next month

 

[HalfTimeOrange]

At my ST presentation today, the guy talking to us on the viewing platform said that subsoil was being laid today that would be filled with this artificial fibre stuff that will hold the grass together, then the actual growing of the grass will happen towards the end of March.
