yeah but...empty seats

Incorrect. They took the back two rows of SS2 during construction. I had to move.

He’s right. They did build behind the existing structure but they moved (as you say) the back couple of rows of tier 2 for safety and ease of access.

My firm installed the Colin bell to North stand corner, it was a very challenging job. We also had 18 months on the academy before that.

I may put all the construction photos in a thread one day if people are interested....

How many more seats would an extended Colin Bell and East Stand give us again?

I guess it's more to do with a large expansion of corporate areas so room to move out those on level 2.

Going off that Phase 3 design, we'll have to rename the stadium The Blue Camp.
