Another question what is the very large concrete base behind the South Stand for? Is it the foundation slab for the new apartment blocks or just an open air concourse?
Open air space but also that’s the area the pitch slides into so it has to be in place earlier than the rest of the area around the stadium.

Some sort of cladding being applied on camera 5, or was until a moment ago. Now the lads are standing about getting a sun tan.

Is there any ethical reason why the workers couldn't wear shock collars, which could be linked to a button on the site? If we see 'em slackin' we give 'em a shockin'!

Can someone tell what the concrete wall, with two big openings in it, as seen from the West Stand camera is for? It just looks unconnected with any other structure.

The concrete base is the podium which houses the pitch when it rolls out. And will also act as a concourse..

I don’t mind it tbh really looks amazing in the flesh. Had a quick drive past today. It’s just so huge, pictures really give no sense how big it is.

My least favourite part of the whole build. There’s not much they could do being that close to the high street but it’s just ‘meh’.
It’s ok and a bit meh now, and unfinished! I bet it’s going to look great at night when it’s all lit up!
