This shows what both stands will look like: http://www.dla-design.co.uk/projects/he ... tand-leeds There are corporate boxes in the North Stand but none in the South Stand. Without the western terrace capacity is: New North Stand 3825 seated no standing Total 3825 New South Stand 2233 seated 5488 standing Total 7721 Carnegie Stand 1844 seated 2706 standing Total 4550 Total Seated 7902 Total Standing 7194 Ground Total excl Western Terrace 15096

Looks like corporate capacity will increase, that looks like a big lounge in the new North Stand. Am I right in thinking that the corporate block that includes the legends suite and the exec lounge is not being pulled down? May be there will be some lower cost options?

Overall impression is that the new stands look very nice indeed, we need a solution for the western terrace, but to get one I think the club will need to buy and demolish some houses behind the terrace. Even then there's a big IF, and that's if they can get planning .permnission

Should be able to buy the houses o the cheap. Afterall they have been able to watch the games for free for 100+ years. Lol

back to being the best ground in the rugby football league . I am sure the club is mindful of the western terrace

Re: Stadium Redevelopment : Sat Oct 14, 2017 8:06 am  

The Western Terrace is clearly the worst part of the ground, but with the limited space to work in with the alley and houses directly behind very little can be done about it. It’s mainly used by away fans anyway. Leeds could spend millions buying and demolishing houses to build a better western terrace for the same number of away fans to show up as before, doesn’t seem like a good business move.

Re: Stadium Redevelopment : Sat Oct 14, 2017 10:26 am  

they wouldn't get planning permission anyway to demolish those houses I shouldn't think anyway

Re: Stadium Redevelopment : Sat Oct 14, 2017 10:56 am

Not sure why the club can’t demolish the west terrace and build an away stand like the one at Salford. They are small stands
