For which part? Is our main stand(west) the last stand to be built?

No idea fella, I’d imagine that the South stand will be finished next, then the west and finally the North but that’s only a guess.

***FAO NATTERJACK****

Natterjack if you are taking a stoll around site soon with your camera, any chance you could take a snap of the South stand from pitch level and post it on here. Seems like there's a fair amount of activity going on out of view of the webcam.

Thanks.

I'm fairly certain (from an earlier posting) that the west stand is the next to go up - starting February. Steel arriving today would seem to indicate this?

Think you are correct EG. The step by step guide published last April in one of the match programmes says West Stand steelwork next, followed by North Stand steelwork.

cheers NJ

 

[cw00]

dont suppose you have any recent photos of the east stand concourse do you?

cheers

 

[The Grockle]

excellent, thank you very much.

i was worried there would be a huge gap between the top of the terrace and the roof but by the looks of it there will only be about a 12 foot gap max.

Thank goodness for NJ and JS as we cant see anything going on via the webcam.

What’s the capacity for each stand and where are the Albion singing section going to be housed, say like the North Stand at the Goldstone?

stands

and I think Insider said all of them (apart from the south, of course)

What is it with the roundabout at 1730 on Thursdays? They played on it last Thurs too!

Cheers for that but have the club taking into consideration the atmosphere? 2,500 behind each goal, thought they’d have made at least the north stand 5,000 so to generate more noise so it’ll filter to the side stands and encourage them to join in.

Why have one stand holding 12,000? Or will that be for the barmy army?

Because that is the big stand?

Really, thought it was called the small stand. But why have one massive stand, why didn’t they have 7,500 each side, 5,000, north stand, 2,000 for the south stand (away end)

Haven’t heard from the club explaining why they designed the ground in the way they have, just think the atmosphere won’t be that great and think it’ll be a big let down not just for me but for most Albion fans.

How on earth do you come to that conclusion? The stadium is being built to encourage a good atmosphere. I'll tell you what. Here's an idea. Let's wait until the first few games THEN give our verdict.

Does anyone know if we are going to get Falmer Watch tomorrow?
