Great pics

It’s difficult to envisage how the roof will look when the stadium is finished.
You tend to look at how the N & S stands will blend in to the E & W.
However, once the S is complete the new roof would be designed around the N & S stands. So probably much higher than it is now. Maybe glazing at the back above the seats like a stand at WHL

The corners are temporary so you'd imagine it would go back to being more of a bowl just on a much vaster footprint and therefore a much higher roofline for the side stands. It will be a monster, and it will look epic.

Is an extention to both the East Stand and the Colin Bell Stand a long-term option, in terms of feasibility?

Yeah the current planning permission for the south stand and north stand confirms they've future-proofed expansion so that they wouldn't have to go back and change proposals. The corners are temporary and would be replaced/engrained into any side stand expansion. You'd imagine it would have to come back miles with the restriction on steepness of the seats/tiers and swallow the spirals.
