It really is. Just wish we had enough to re-terrace the whole of the North Stand. The new concrete is great but it's doesn't half exacerbate the poor state of the old.

How can making the floor stable stop the atmosphere in the North Stand?
I'm sure the performance on the field has done that if it's happened.

The atmosphere / noise is massively reduced due to there being fewer fans in there, not helped by the performances.
Overall it's better but, something has been lost with the upgrade.

While it does look better it’s reduced the overall north and stadium capacity by around 1000. It’s a shame we couldn’t find the funds to raise the roof and push it back. A few more months and it will be looking grand. That pitch looks absolutely perfect.

Looks great with roof complete

Re: Stadium and other issues : Tue May 09, 2023 7:34 am  

Agreed - looks fab. So what happens in front of the concrete wall then? It is a large distance from the pitch - and they won't be putting terrace there I'm guessing to replicate the former east stand?

Looks like there are steps down to pitch level, perhaps stewards/disabled area. Ultimately it will give a clear view of the pitch when subs are warming up. free image uploader

i dont know if its me , but the diagram of the seating plan (tunnels are in different positions) and the photo seem to be slightly different . i don't think it makes a difference , but is there a reason?
