what is that top left corner of the 4th photo?

 

[Laughing Gravy]

The east stand looks half finished. They should have just wanged another tier on there.

Great pics though

what is that top left corner of the 4th photo?

A child, I believe.

Seriously, I'm not sure.. Surely not a disabled viewing platform? (though there are lifts to WSU aren't there?) .. Maybe a tv camera rig?

really does. real weak spot.

Absolutely, and the condition of some of the leaves on three of the trees down by the rugby pitch is just dreadful. I have never been so disappointed about anything in my life. My god, we didn't have this sort of problem at the Priestfield. And as for the green paint on the girders beneath the railway bridge. You're not going to believe this, it looks like Pantone 554!!! I'm going to moan and moan until I'm thick. Oh, hold on...

hmmm, i'm not sure there was really the need for this response. having an imperfection does not mean i'm not ecstatic about the whole thing. indeed, the fact that everything else looks so wonderful only adds to the inconsistency of the unfinished east stand. saying it's a weak spot does not even constitute a complaint. it's merely an opinion, and one you'd find it had to disagree with.

nice use of pantone, though.

To comment on this point - it is actually a strong spot if you consider that we have the stadium built to a capacity that was applied for, but with an area that's available for further expansion. We might (probably will) see a time where the stadium as too small in relation to ticket demand, and the regret might be that it's half the size needed.

If 30,000 aprox capacity is a close-enough size overall, for the number of fans wanting to come in, then at least The Albion can stretch to accommodate.

Brilliant

The seafront railing etching with seagulls above is particularly aesthetically pleasing on the eye.

I thnk I saw my blue seat as well, or it may have been white?

Can't wait to visit and have an emotional weep.
