Work at stadium with extra seats: photos?

[Gritt23]

This looks a million times better! Good job.. I'd be very happy with this!

It looks better, because the portacabins are smaller, but why do they have to look like portacabins in the first place? It will look like the site offices to me, unfortunately.

Disgusting attitude. Why should the able bodied fans in the West, who have paid TOP prices, have to put up with imperfect aesthetics, just to accommodate these so called 'disabled fans'?

Oh COME on, who has posted negative comments about accommodating disabled fans. Keep up your horrible holier then thou postings though they're great (not).

 

[somerset]

Some of the comments on here are f***ing laughable.

IT'S A PHOTOSHOP MOCKUP FFS.

Agreed, there are certainly a whole shed load of I'll informed Muppets on this thread, it looks fantastic, everyone will have a great uninterrupted view,..... get a life you pedantic gonads.

I cant believe people are defending it if it really is going to look like the website pic. It looks crap, and more than anything else, mystifying. After all the money spent to end up with a stand still looking unfinished would be very odd. I cant believe it is true, the seats next to the portacabin things wouldn't even be able to see the goal at that end of the pitch.

The real thing will have more of an overhung top deck, and those non seated end bits will be inconsequential compared to a mass of blue seats all about.

I don't think its particularly negative to say it doesn't look as good as it could be or what we hoped it would be. Hopefully it'll look better than the mock up but it is a little bit disappointing so far.

Perhaps therein lies the problem, the mockups on the website showing the East Upper with fans in it wasn't done by the club, but by an enthusiast, note the comment "This isn't official, but here's some mock-ups".

The drawings in the Soton program were done by the architects, the club has now issued an official mock up. Why does anyone think someone not involved with the project would be able to do any better. OK, they might make it 'look' better, but if it isn't accurate,what's the point?

Okay I'll say this slowly then.

The line drawing that is based on the architects plans has 5 rows of seats in front of the concrete wall. The 'mockup' doesnt. That's not a case of being someone not involved in the project thinking they can do better, its a case of suggesting that the official mock up is but a representation and not a completely accurate one at that.

If it were a football shirt and the design sheet showed 4 stripes and the photoshopped mock up showed 3 with the collar not as big and now piping on the sleeves I'm sure you'd be amongst the first to comment.

 

[ROSM]

Why is having an opinion and passing comment such a crime ?

Ridiculous to call it moaning.

But we don't allow that kind of behaviour in the east

You are soooo hilarious, do YOU really think the club and architects would design seats that couldn't see the pitch, really mate??,...REALLY??!!??

What are they ?

Must be a mistake - some of the seats won't see all the pitch.

Look at where the seagulls are in this pic, they're either remapping the pattern or the original pic is a fake...

 

[Superphil]

From the line drawing there are 5 rows of seats plus the disabled platform in front of those areas and at most c15 rows beind them reducing to one.

I think that given the first 3 rows will overhang the middle of the east lower (and that isnt showing in the image) that the most likely scenario here is that the person who put the image together is not proficient at photo shop.

I bow to your superior screen resolution or eyesight then. I am unable to count how mant rows there are on the mock up, as it is too small for me.

Come on then, lets all do our own mock ups, and then, when they don't look like the real thing we can complain even more. :moan:

 

[Hillian1]

Well you can all call me whatever the hell you want, but if that really is the finished stand it's going to look f***ing terrible.

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

But we don't allow that kind of behaviour in the east

That is true. A slightly disapproving murmur is all that is permitted.

I will call you what ever you want because you are very correct!

Liverpool and Arsenal (Highbury) managed to!!

I am beginning to hear the tune from the Twilight Zone ...........

 

[Driver8]

Oh, and West Ham.

None of them new builds, stop it will you, ITS A NON ISSUE.

Accomodating disabled supporters in a way that gives them a decent view, rather than being tucked behind a corner flag at pitch level, which often seems to be the case, is actually an excellent idea, and something the club should be applauded for.

Next you will want us to talk to them like normal human beings! This club is going downhill FAST.

Exactly. We want pretty patterns before disabled facilities. What kind of LAUGHING STOCK does this make us?
