Was the original plan to actually have the roof green in the first place to blend in with the countryside ? i thought i read that somewhere many moons ago before the stadium was even built .

Didn't one plan use real grass?

I can't remember the specific details to be perfectly honest , but i do recall reading that the design of the roof would be green , now if that was grass i missed that , but anybody that has a plastic roof on their shed or garden tool store will after a couple of years outside at some point cleaned off the algae , i suppose after a certain amount of time the weight of the moss / algae would cause a concern if it had not been calculated into the stress bearing plans of the beams that support the roof , the west stand will cave in first due to the amount of hot air being wafted up to the rafters add to that the steam CH generates on a matchday and it's a veritable breeding ground up there on the roof , it's just as well we actually didn't install that glass ceiling .
