Expansion

[Etsjb]

Driving past looking at the pitch and angle of these new temporary stands looks like there could be restricted views from the top of the current main stand or lower down in the temporary stands... might be my eyes though

It doesn’t look like much more restricted than previously without the new stands, the flood lights were there previously and the roofs of the new stand should not be lower than the BA stand roof, if they are should not be enough to create obstructed views. I guess time will tell and completion will show us for sure.

I did wonder about this (i was the surveyor when the main stand was built) - but i think the away stand shouldn't affect site lines. The roof of the new home end stand might obscure the corner flag area for those high up on the B and A sections of the current main stand - but you won't be able to tell until someone sits there when the temp stands are finished.
There are a few grounds that have restricted views of corners etc, so whilst not ideal it isn't exactly unusual.

Blimey! I thought you'd gone all arty with a black and white photo, then I saw the green of the pitch. Bit grey down in Barrow at the minute?
That's all looking really good.

Looks exactly the same pitch from behind driving down walney road

Looks like there’s gonna be some restricted views towards the back corners of the main stands?

That’s how it came back from the Chemist’s.

It looks like it - it would seem anyone who usually sits around that area will be displaced elsewhere (be it in the new seating area) as I can't see people wanting to have a substantially restricted view.

needs the end filling in with something to protect the fans from the elements come winter.

Bright sunshine when I was there.

Might be finished by end of the week, one of the lads erecting them said. Roof has come from Derby.

There isn't anything to suggest that's happening, based on the drawings released.

The ends of the Brian Arrowsmith stand have never been filled in.
