Lego is so much more technical now, than it used to be.

Why do you think they’ve not done the full beams? I think they did with the south stand. I’m wondering when they will even attach the front part.

I wondered if it was to do with the propping, as they can't seem to get far enough forward. On the beams on the ground,,you can see the connection ends for beam to beam bracing, chunky stuff. I don't think the front third will happen till the new cabkes are on back to the pyramid.

For me, Lego lost its way after doing kits with instructions. In the old days kids used their imagination. Hope this project has instructions and appropriate kits though.

I usually just drop a couple of E’s in anticipation of it coming on :-)

Zoomed in.

The picture really shows how high the new North stand roof will be compared to the current North stand roof, and the roofs on the Colin Bell stand and East stand.

The feng shui is going to be all off, just like Maine Road, and we’re going to win fuck all again for another 35 years.

It's OK, a new Gene Kelly stand is going to be shoehorned into one of the corners with the spare scaffolding left over after the North stand is finished.

The development is simply staggering. Building a hotel, an other building and a new stand whilst football continues is mind boggling.

Whilst the football has disappointed this season the building progress has been very entertaining. I will miss it when finally finished.

That was just to balance the Dave Watson Gap on the other side of the North Stand!

If the stand opens half way through next season, who is going to occupy it? Will they be match day tickets or FCFS tickets of what? Are they going part year season cards from a specific date?

It was discussed recently (by others) with the consensus being the club are holding back on any announcement until the roof is or at least confirmed as being on target, time wise.
