Official website is down?

but would people not have more positive or negative comments to make to the club if they seen the final design mate? We are bloody lucky as fans anyway with what the club are doing but i understand its the concept plans but imo it would have been better to show the actual proposed finish look to gauge what the club are aiming to achieve?

People won't visit the allotted consultation venues if they put the full plans up !

Looks good to me, can't get on the OS tho.

Its all decided already, show a detailed design and you will get people picking at it. Asking for amendments then moaning when its exactly the same as first revealed.

Cause it has, but people do love a moan!

I just get the holding page on the official site, I thought we had plans to fill the corners in? I actually like the concept drawing stuff, exciting times ahead.

Tell you what if we were offered free S/C's people would find a moan about something.

There's a proper fanny part of our fanbase.

It always crashes when more than 20 people try to get onto the site in one go! Looks impressive so far

Why are people complaining already? These are just the first basic drawings and images.

FFS, wait until the CGI's are made public.

I don’t think people are complaining or meaning to come off as ungrateful, it’s just an observation the drawings aren’t what we anticipated. Take the south stand announcement for example. Full CGI.

We know we are lucky to have this to look forward to, it’s a game changer.

Do people think the design of this new stand will have a prerequisite that is has to be able to develop into the new west and east stands?

I’m being picky but the gaps between said stands could look a bit vast shall we say.

Excited though, the club have listened which is great.

There will be screens in the corners. The side stands are 3 tiers and this one is 2 so it won’t link in to the other stands.

A big positive is that they’ll move the screens from the north to the south during construction most likely.

Think this will be fantastic. Probably better fan retention after games too. Especially in Winter when it’s pissing it down

 

[wolfie1988]

One thing not mentioned, is the steeper gradient of the expanded second tier likely to mean a closure of the current NS2.

Wonder if they will do it as a two piece, a bit like Anfield, and build behind. And then thread the lower part on in the off season

Most people don’t have the imagination to fill in the blanks. They just see rough sketches and think that’s exactly what it will look like. Hence comments such as ‘it looks like blocks attached the stadium’.
