Fabulous pictures again CM. Have you managed to negotiate your induction on to the site so that you can continue taking pics once the corners are all closed off?

Never mind the holes in the South Stand roof, some of those crush barriers look decidedly wobbly!

Man is this going to be an impressive looking building! Damn shame it is going to end up surrounded by retail outlets. Pity Saints hadn't been richer and able to secure some of the third phase land to really set off what is going to be a stunner of a stadium.

The day I spent in the stadium really impressed me but was pretty shocked at how near the tesco is to the stadium.

I'll email my other pics to CM now, I think I've got few showing how close it is.
