I love seeing stadiums at this stage, I feel it's a shame they need to be 'coloured in'. I remember seeing the JJB before the coloured plastic seats were put in place, and it looked so pristine, only to come out like a slightly gaudy generic stadium.

I know it's necessary, I don't protest the fact red seats need to be put in place, but I hope it retains some sort of it's lightness and transparency. It looks like somewhere abroad in the sunny shots!

Just been on Salfords site, and they have pics now of one of the other three stands being built. It looks like a glorified bus shelter compared to the main stand.

It's good they're getting a new ground like us, but I think it will look a little wierd with one large stand and then three very small in comparison stands.

The main thing for the Salford club, it keeps them in super league.

Not denying that, it's great that all these new grounds are finally getting built. It just seems an odd design, to have one large stand and then three tiny ones. The only reason I could think of, is it would be easier to increase capacity at a later date, as you would only after to individual stands.

The Salford web site seems to indicate that it is a 12,000 seater stadium with future expansion to 20,000.
