North Stand Construction Discussion

[Bournemouth Blue]

I wish people would realise there is another thread for ticketing matters, I just want to follow the North Stand Expansion construction progress, but I don’t want to wade through lots of irrelevant crap

In fairness since the thread split there has been very little ticketing/where the singers go discussion on this thread, particularly recently after it had been pointed out the other thread exists. A couple other additional not entirely relevant side posts, but that happens on every thread.

It changed a few weeks ago to try and stop idiots like you filling the pages up with stuff that should be in other threads

Idiot! Ouch.

Don't stop there Keith. Carry on. :-)

Thanks for the update, Maybe a silly question but why have they installed a block of terracing then not done anymore for a few weeks now?

I'm going to assume it's got a couple of reasons. One being that it is a little more difficult because of the cables supporting the old roof. And the second being that I don't think they will want to weight bear too much on those sides and the towers until the steelwork is completely supported by the new frame being built up

They were putting in rebar and pouring concrete on the concourse under the terracing, probably needed to be done before they install the terracing above, along with what Wolfie1988 suggested

Was just about to add that in. That's imo the most likely reason, the sequencing of the pour below.

Plus they probably don't want to disturb that bloke sat in the middle of the new tier with his flask & butties patiently waiting for kick off at his new seat. ‍
