It doesn't seem possible that they could get it all done in time for the ramp up events

I don't think they will be putting them in one at a time

Probably +3.

1,000 seats a week, going on a 40 hour week equates to 25 seats an hour.

If they are going in 3's like at Withdean, thats a row of 3 seats every 7 minutes or thereabouts. Sounds easy enough to do.

16.45 pic - 3 workers in the east stand have just realised they'll have to work a lot faster to get it all done on time.

Just to clarify, my comment about the seat contractors only working half days was somewhat tongue in cheek!

It was a real pea souper at 8.15 this morning.
Cam stopped again

Blimey, they've made good progress today

They certainly have with the pitch, but at the same time they seem to have dismantled some of the cladding in the north-west corner. No way will they finish marking the six-yard box by August.

I like that the gap between the edge of the pitch and the front of the stand isn't TOO big. A lot of the new stadiums seem to have gone overboard on distancing the fans from the pitch (ie. the opposite of Chelsea - definition of 'compactness') - but I think ours will be just about okay - by modern stadium standards. And I certainly can't complain considering what we've had to put up with Withdean!

Only noticed recently how large the gap is at Molineux.. the fans are MILES away:

They are addressing this - they have moved the pich towards the South Bank stand and are planning substantial redevelopment work over the next few years. In the meantime, Molineux is the only ground in the football league where a regulation pitch could be installed SIDEWAYS. This is the because it was the first new stadium after the report into the Hillsborough disaster and subsequent changes in stadium design law, so they went over the top in meeting the new regulations. I tend to keep abrest of these issues as I live within 200 metres of Molineux.

Molineux redevelopment plans

Yup, I thought you might have something to say on the issue! Interesting to hear the reasons behind it, and of future plans - cheers.

Cardiff could probably also do with making similar amendments.

Looks like the undersoil heating structure being started.
