I was told yesterday that draftsmen for one of the principal subcontractors on the south stand have already produced details for the north stand.

Steel drawings!!

Steel drawings!!

Is that some sort of architectural/engineering term, or do you mean steal? I'm genuinely not sure.

Steel = Remington Steel = Pierce Brosnan = James Bond = Timothy Dalton.

Did he happen to mention if there were any dramatic differences to the South Stand? We are an impatient lot, aren't we?

I think it will be one single tier.

And a slight change of topic...

I had a good look at the corner structures against yuve. In terms of mounting the screens there don't seem to have been any mounting brackets incorporated into the steelwork. I imagine (bearing in mind I'm not a structural engineer!) that the easiest way seems to be to bear most of the weight from the trusses above the screen. I may be totally wrong though.

Don't they use one of these from Argos?
