North Stand Construction Discussion

do we have an exact date when first time the full extended capacity is in use? like 60K+?
I recall January/February timeline previously...
 
"The North Stand itself will open during the 2025-26 season, with the hotel, workspace and public realm works, including the new fanzone, opening later in 2026." From the annual report.

No exact or even loose date stated.

January/February was noted in Sisk's initial programme, and broadly lined up with the Club's claim of 'end of 25/beginning of 26' earlier in the year.

Now, a few people are stating having heard of delays, and the club current statement says 'during the 2025/2026 season'. So chances are spring-time, if you read into it as such.
 
I sit in 023 Colin Bell. I can't wait to play spot the fan when this stand opens. If we don't let the majority go to season tickets(and there's a big enough queue for em) then its going to be the biggest white elephant in football. Maybe it'll take a few Premier league games with rows n rows of empty seats for the clueless fuckers to act!

They won't be. None of the walls are 'solid' as such, they are both frames, and the internal infill, and external build-up will be the same. Any discrepancy would be picked up in the lining, but minimal. Both also have concrere slabs, and it is also not strictly true that concerte is 'better' than steel acoustically, they have their own strengths and weaknesses. But no, there wouldn't be any difference between them as an experience, that would be ensured for any brand taking it on.

Is that why when I stay at Sachas all I can hear is Hairy Mary from Moston going like the clappers all night?
 
I’m not a fan at all of the light grey panelling.

Just looks overly large and overbearing.

Might have looked better and more uniform if they’d added more ducts in the lower section.

I hope whoever is looking after the screens in the new development, does a better job than whoever completed the LED wrap around the top of the Co-op arena.

My first night match for a while, and walking from the tram last night I was surprised how many segments don't work/show block primary colours. Not a great look.

Maybe it was the weather....!!??
 
There is a large degree of cladding and it reflects what is a huge stand. I think Spurs have some kind of wrap around that covers their stand so as to make it more interesting to the eye. The Victorians would have put some gargoyles on there. Keano's head for example.
