Chappy ?

Correct! :-)

Last set of the stadium this year. Next set in January, via the new camera.

Terraces how now reached the back of the stand. Walls(breeze block) now starting to go in.

My highlight of the expansion is the roof/cable supports coming out of the stand itself. Will look stunning.(picture 10 and others)

This might be of interest, could be part of the collar site:

UK's first eSports arena planned for 2015

The sometimes obscure world of eSports is about to get a significant signal boost in the UK, with plans announced for the country's first arena dedicated to high-level, competitive gaming.

The move comes as part of Kingston-based Gfinity's plans to float on the stock market. With an estimated £13m valuation, the company aims to raise £3m to build the new centre, which is intended to accomodate up to 500 spectators at a time.

"The growth across the whole market is just phenomenal but we need funding to accelerate our own growth," Gfinity founder Neville Upton told City A.M. "The money will pay for us to build an eSports Arena, the first ever in the UK, and provide competitions on a regular basis. There's only two other major global providers of eSports: Major League Gaming in the US and eSports League in Germany. This float will give us enough firepower to be on their scale and hopefully build up a reputation for our competitions."

Don't miss
In its current form -- an online hub for competitive players of games such as Call of Duty, League of Legends and Starcraft II -- has over 270,000 people registered and sees circa 30,000 new subscribers each month, according to Upton.

eSports is becoming an increasing popular -- and lucrative -- market. This June saw the DotA II championships offer a $10m (£6.35m) prize pot, and Gfinity itself held its first arena event, attracting 4,000 attendees.

Although Gfinity hasn't announced details of opening dates or location for its bespoke arena, nor a window for its IPO of shares, the company has revealed plans for its expanded operations next year, with 30 large-scale offline events, more games joining its competitive roster, and $500,000 (£317,000) in prize money.

Re: Etihad Campus, Stadium and Collar Site Development Threa

No probs. My pleasure. Just need a new camera now. Looking at a Sony RX100 II or Sony RX100 III.

Posted by Loweskid on SSC.

Great pictures. Clear and crisp.

And some from me, taken yesterday...

Sunday 13:30. This is the queue waiting to turn right at the traffic lights you can just about
see in the distance, just before the tower block, trying to get into the Asda car park.
From the other side of the bridge the queue stretched away out of site in the other direction. Madness...
