You can really see how much better the design is for acoustics then before. The angle and scale of the roof and also the expanse of the surrounds that will help noise reverberate around the ground.
This is about construction so not looking to debate the ticketing etc here, but it's going to be the best place in the ground to generate an atmosphere putting that to one side.

That much of a potential drop later on? Struggle to see that tbh, with all the purlins now in place.
Unless I have misunderstood what you mean.
That gap man! I really hope they have done a whistling analysis here.

Surely there will be a clip on bead to fill that space ?

I suspect that the actual fins will look different to the one put up so far anyway.

We HAVE to join up these corners. The external aesthetics are not good imho. I hope we get it done and then have a complete rethink on ticketing. Up the Blues!
Doubt it. Would have done that by now imo, and don't see where anything can clip to.

So if there’s no cover bead to go on , they could possibly increase the gap ??

The roof on the corners at the South Stand end look poor, in my opinion. They don't seem to follow the flow of the roofs on the East and South stands.....
They also leak a bit, seem a botched job.

They were always intended to be temporary until the E & W stands were done.
Damn, I've probably triggered Burton...

It's because they're missing two massive tellys. Stops us paupers in north lower seeing the replay of the dodgy Villa penalty or anything else that's happening.
They could, it would mean changing the brackets. Assuming there was any need for that, obviously. But yeah that would certainly be a way to deal with it. Hopefully they have tested and planned it all out though. Looking at it, I have to admit my sphincter's kinda twitching ;). I've said this before so it isn't just because of that photo btw.
