Now the Taekwondo team from Ten acre Lane have been moved out of the training facilities that were between Next (now Gone) and Asda do people think Asda will get the green light?

Is this a tongue twister type thing?

I know this has probably already been covered, but don't really want to search for it. What are we doing with the pitch? Looks like it is going under a pretty big alteration. Do we tear it up and rebuild every year? Or is something special going on this year with it?

I know they are digging down and adding a few extra rows of seats at the front. Thats what they must be doing just now

It's dug up and re laid every summer. Don't think there is anything special happening with it.

Great photos but next time I would say you found them online you dont want your mate thrown off the job

End of an era.

Oh well, back to supporting Chelsea then.

It's a lovely day and the sun is beating down. I expect some pictures today from the guys who are working on the inside of the stadium or visiting. Dont let me down.

Judging by the size of those cranes we could be kicking down the slope towards the South Stand next season!

Same last year - take the top off and replace it every year. - Not sure whether it is re - seeded of strips of turf.

Would make a good Caption Competition this one

"Man City trial a new defence manned with Giant Robots - but Joe Hart still can't kick the ball out to them reliably...."

Tenuous link from SSC about North Stand Expansion....

Has anything been announced about the North Stand expansion?

One of my students in Glasgow asked me for directions to the Eithad as he had to go for an orientation meeting prior to starting a job with Laing O'Rourke in September.

Would Laing O'Rourke with recruiting staff for the site from September if the next phase was not going ahead?

We must win the golden cranes award for this season. And BTW it will not be ready for the start of next season.

Because they are behind schedule.
