no, we're hanging Yaya on the opening day of the season and then for the rest of the year it's going to be used to pick up early leavers and return them to their seats.

No. Its there to lift the three new rows of seats in at the front of the lower tier.

Of course its for the new roof (and the new third tier) ;-)

We're going to need more cranes then.

Cracking idea. Sadly I missed the ritual disembowelment of Hugh Ferris on the centre circle last season so Yaya swinging in a gibbet would make up for that.

I thought it was to replace the light bulbs on top of the masts?

The precision with which the operate all that stuff is phenomenal. Imagine the view up there of the academy and of town itself? Stunning.

Mission for JRB to get up there ?

We should all chip in to get him a VIP climb to the top!!

They'll never replace them, those bulbs only exist in a small shop sat on the outskirts of a tiny village in Eastern Ukraine. And the fittings have to be imported from Dongguan in China to assemble said bulbs, and that factory has relocated to Mongolia...

I bet Nike didn't want the crane to be blue and white.

That sounds just like one of the excuses Swales used to trot out at the AGM as to why the North Stand Score Board didn't work,
