Refresher for those who aren't too clued up:

3D model video of how the construction will be done:

Pics:

it is going to be stunning to be fair! certainly compared to the anfield lego stand development!

Are they putting a glass facade around the existing concrete?

Looks it in that picture.<br /><br />-- Mon May 05, 2014 9:04 am --<br /><br />

Will the stand be glass at the back (as in the pictures)

Sorry SHB, hadn't seen this.

Many thanks to all those on this thread for sharing photos, plans and insights. Just amazing to think this is happening to our club!

On the SSC forum under the retail thread, someone has posted that the Asda Eastlands staff had a meeting over the weekend and informed the staff they were relocating. It's possibly rubbish but send genuine. If anyone knows someone who works there maybe they could confirm this?

The interesting thing I read in that report is that they are planning for an increase in the West and East stands and that the long term plan is to replace the old roof

So to all those wishing and hoping that our owners will walk away dont hold your breathe you might go a funny colour...:)

I wonder if there is any way of painting the concrete on the exterior so that it looks better without looking false and still blends in.

I suppose if there was they might have already done it unless the whole stadium will be painted after expanding both ends.

Stadium looks great inside and awesome from above though. Love how it looks at night when it's lit up too.

Went past on the bus yesterday and the pitch in the mini stadium look as though it's now ready for seeding, the sand base is in place etc. also they were mowing the other pitches so they must be well on too...boring I know but a little snippet !

The top of the spirals on the Colin bell stand are painted as the concrete was very different in colour.

I'm a fan of Real Madrid and I really liked the remodeling of the Santiago Bernabeu stadium ... But this project has no comparison is simply unbelievable that give me great envy. Excellent hopefully many other clubs take the example is given in Manchester City. It's awesome!

Enough said.
