So, I decided to do a mock up of what the extra tier might look like by looking at the designs we’ve seen from the council planning application. I know it’s not perfect, the stand itself and the tier should probably be a bit steeper, but I did it without any measurements and I used some artistic license with some stuff.

The roof is at a 90 degree angle because you can’t angle things on the app I used.

IMHO if I were the club I would go for it right now during the pandemic hiatus

Or they might want to hold off until the end of March to see how many ST holders renew.

Too risk averse. Now is the time to go for it. Chances are we will be somewhere near normality by the summer

There was a drone shot of the Amex during the Liverpool game, I’m not sure if it was the light but the Amex roof looked different.....grey rather than the green colour it has been recently. Does anybody know if they’ve worked on it. (I loved it when it was blue)

Excellent work, I’m hoping my seat will just about be under the new tier.

Cheers! Yeah, I think mine will be as well. I like to think it will make it louder, but I’m not sure how acoustics work.

I certainly think the club missed a trick not installing Eames Aluminium Group chairs throughout. :thumbsup:

As it was done on some home planning app, they were the only seats I could use! I had to put them all in individually :eek:

I like your signature facts. Which are the other well supported in Tier 4 teams/years...? Sheffield? Pompey?

You've created a rod for your own back - CPFC will be calling you for help on their new stand - luckily it wont be as many seats!

It’s Palace, they did both in the 1960/61 season. We did both in the 1964/65 season.

And neutrals say the rivalry doesn’t have any history :ffsparr:

Parish has already emailed me and offered Susanna Reid.

I’m considering the offer.

Knowing them, they’ll probably be in admin soon and they’ll give me Eddie Izzard instead.

So that makes Palace & Albion the biggest 4th Division clubs in history....:bowdown::cheery:

So who is the biggest, i would guess we wouldn't want to mention that part? :blush:

Been like that for a few years now.

A combination of direct sunlight and inclement Sussex weather has faded the blue tint into that manky colour.

They had the higher average (by about a thousand) and had the biggest crowd out of the two respective seasons (by about 6,000), if it wasn’t for that, the averages would’ve been a lot closer obviously.

Overall though, we’ve had the higher averages when in the same league more often than not.

We are massive. They are tiny.

Here's an idea.

Not a very good one though...
