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

Were they not filled in years ago on the left-hand side, and then removed because spectators complained they couldn't see some areas of the pitch?

That's interesting Ian just hope that if we get high winds, it doesn't affect the other stand because they'll have calculated on the new stand but hopefully looked at the impact( if any)On the Brian Arrowsmith Stand , an example of this was when the DDH was first built part created a wind tunnel and people were getting blown over !

Kudos to the brave souls who take up the the first columns of seats in the new West stand. Acting as the wind break for the rest of the stand.

The stands are already looking a massive improvement on the ground. Let's hope the increased capacity and away followings are a step in the right direction in making us more self sustainable. I'm guessing all the away fans will be all seated so should command the higher entrance fee. Standing areas to be opened up for the bigger teams with larger followings

Just take some of that shitty plastic sheeting out of the away end, anyway now that the mighty Blues have gone up, you'll never sell it out in a Month of Sundays.

Your obsession in us hasn’t dwindled has it

Unless we pass them en-route ! Had to smile at Simmo on RC this morning. Had a player in yesterday-medical passed,squad number given,deal done until a phone call from his agent to say he'd had a better offer from a Club nearer home. Shame

At least our away end is in the same country as the pitch. Small mercies I suppose.

The roof on the new "home" section is quite a bit lower than the new away stand which will reduce any impact on the view.

Just to inform everyone, especially the exiles, that I will not be posting anymore photos of the new stand being erected, as I have been warned off by someone on here. Sorry guys. My season ticket will be getting cancelled forthwith.
