The drone footage looks ace! really coming together with the brickwork and the glass in place.

I know its been asked before but have we actually confirmed what will be in front of the stand, where there is space from the stand to the 'fence' which is in place now?

Will it just be a 'walkway'?

The drone footage looks great.
One question though. At the top of the terracing, which will be seating at some point soon, was the original intention to have hospitality boxes with a view of the pitch, down the length of the stand or, was it always the intention to have a glass front in just the central part of the stand ?
Have we missed a trick here or, has there been some "cutting back" ?
Apart from the central part, most of the top of the stand seems to have been blocked up.

Seats and steps to go in, but can't be done til the very end - access for the rest of the build.

Surely it’s Belle Vue Stadium?

The stadium name changes with different sponsors therefore to accommodate this the sign would need to be on a revolving drum for each letter.

Sponsorship isn’t the issue though, everyone accepted the financial realities of Stadium naming rights and the money it can bring. However, the generic name of the stadium is Belle Vue and always has been!

Welcome to Belle Vue Stadium, home of Wakefield Trinity would be more appropriate. Even though this will be meaningless to some but to many it’s important and after 150 years of Belle Vue, no one has the right to just arbitrarily change it.

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium or White Hart Lane? Times move on. This way the clubs name is visible to all who pass on Doncaster Road.
