Stadium looks good but i do have some concerns for it......my dads company is working on the stadium and he was showing me his pics.

Three of the stands have open backs to them, people at the back are likely to get wet.

Also the concourses are open to the elements also! Very strange...... any reasons for this?

BAN HIM!!!!

SPEAK YE NON ILL OF THE HALO OF DREAMS.

Hey there'sa name HALO.

Looks superb.

This weeks stadium pics.

view of the South and East stand



One of the main changes this week is the fitting of the Turnstyles

These are of the East stand turnstyles





North west corner turnstyles, which are for people in the West terrace and also South stand seats



One of the north stand turnstyle blocks



The pavements are also being prepared to be laid around the stadium perimeter. This will be of the same material as that which has been laid close to the entrance of JK Phillips







trees have been cleared at the entrance to Warrington road.



emergency phone/fire alarm system fitted behind the East stand



Inside the North stand are boxes with KONE written on them.
A guick google shows these people build lifts and escalators

our hi tech sprinklers were in action today

Part 2

As you may have glimpsed in the previous photos, seats have been going into the South stand

Here are a group of pics showing that the seats in this stand are plain red. No fancy writing on them



These two pics show a block were only seat frames have been fitted. I think this is because this block is for the premium seat holders with their padded seats. Spot the photographer on the second pic





The steps to pitch level are also now being fitted



cladding has also been fitted in the South East corner



Red cladding is also going up on the North stand





This is the west stands state of play



moving onto the Tesco side and the Petrol filling station is coming along



Finally some pics of the stadium from the Tesco/link road side. Notice the additional tree planting and the footpath made of the same material as that close to the entrance of JK phillips and the South stand.

Where is KC's statue going to be situated?

No, Idea. I would like to think its in the area were all the tree planting is going on close to the South West corner of the stadium.

That way it would make a nice meeting place for people.

Last thing we want is for it to be dumped on the roundabout.

Cracking pics them!

seconded, chair.

Looking great folks, bet you can't wait to play that first match in there.

Fabulous pics, Chair. Thanks for posting them!

Didn't I read people whining that the north stand wasn't getting any cladding? Is it only the west/east now then?

its just the lift shaft on the North stand thats getting cladded in the red stuff, the rest of the outside wall will be open, apart from a 14ft wall.

That's not what they said on the website. They said the North will be cladded. Has that now changed?

Either way, think of it as a big window that someone left open. Should be nice and airy.

Ahhh, righto. Is that official then? How do you know that?

p.s. not questioning you as I know you're pretty up to speed on the stadium front, just interested.

OK once and for all on the cladding - Saints Media Manager has stated quite clearly that a planning app is in for the North to be cladded but it might not be done for the first game.

When is the 'v' wall going in?

Cheers

Is this the modern equivalent of the Eddington End wall where the chavs would pop a quick feel of one another during the game?
