North Stand Construction Discussion

[Citizen of Legoland]

Definitely is. One of our SC members works on the boxes, and he said there would be screens in all 4 corners

I reckon I’ll be able to see three out of the four screens (possibly all 4) so do wonder why we need one in each corner. Are there areas in the stadium that can only see one of the corners where the screens will be? Genuine question.

If there are indeed 4 screens I would think every seat in the house could see at least 2 ??

I know it isn't a 'real' issue, but the stadium would look a bit odd with 3 screens when there's 4 corners - plus the corners at the south stand end are absolutely rank and need covering up.

I would think there are places, perhaps under the over hang on the bottom level where you might not get a good view of more than one screen. I'm delighted with the additional screens because since the south stand was extended I haven't been able to see any screens.

Nope, got a bloody camera location rig in front of me in 006(see what I did there) We have to suffice with a 32" tv mounted on the back of it.

Different company doing the scaffold works in the south west corner....

Maybe in both of the top back corners of the new stand? Maybe even all along the back and the Skybar? I'm not sure of sightlines from up there.

Pitch uncovered resembles the baseball ground in the 70/80s ;-)

Despite being covered for weeks and driven over by two 36 tonne and one 72 tonne crane, the bits of the pitch exposed on Colin’s latest video are still in better condition than the average February pitch at Maine Road in the 1960s.

If there were no screens added to the South Stand then most of the new upper area of NorthStand wouldnt be bale to see any

 

[remember arthur mann]

Don't know if CP OVERVIEW was taking the piss, but he's been over to the Carrington Swamp today to have a look around. I would say Accrington Stanley or even Hamilton Academical have a better training pitch.

No I understand that but one in each of NE/SW or NW/SE and it probably serves the majority of the stadium. I know there’ll be certain areas that might struggle, such as seats far back in the stands but some of those might still have issue with 4. I mean Wembley manages with just 2.

 

[Bournemouth Blue]

Back in my day, at Maine Road…….need I say more? Most games weren’t even televised or filmed until the 1990s.
