How do you think they fixed the so called wonky the roof? (If they did)

i'm a bit behind, but it certainly does look a lot more straight, doesn't it.

Tightening, or rather losening the western tensing isnthe obvious pne as others have said. I wonder if they had to replace any purlins though.

'Where were you when we were wonky?'

“We were here when we were wonky,”
“Straightening you, when we were wonky!”

It does look better.

 

[Leetwilliams]

Don’t think they did anything , think it was a optical illusion :-)

It was definitely wonky. You could tell by the horizontal bits on the front of the roof.

The wonk never happened, too many pints of Boddingtons

Are those new seats under the new screens?

No. They are hospitality seats.

 

[HelloCity]

They were there previously.

Looks strange without a 4th screen, like it’s been thrown together by a four year old

I think if thrown together by a four year old there would be no screens at all. Perhaps a fourth screen will appear next year. Perhaps not. Either way there seems to be a plan even if it isn’t shared.

Will you want 5, when we get 4.
Some poor clubs haven't got 1 .

I`m still surprised that they havent just put some cladding in behind to cover up the corners and make it look smarter? Maybe they will but it would cost such a small amount and make a such a difference to the look of everything.

Don't think it would cost a small amount. Don't think it would improve it any.

Even some black PVC style cladding? Would cover up the hideous corners

Would it? Or would it just look like some shitey pvc in front of some shitey corners.

Wonder if that’s as far as the safe standing goes down (outside of the end blocks).
