What is the function of the roof cassettes? Are they purely just for rain protection above the stands, as then it shouldn't be a huge issue if they're a bit behind as they wouldn't be part of the critical path.

Thing to remember is that whilst that may or may not be true (not doubting at all btw) it may not be time-critical to completion.

Sadly i think it'll be a while before we beat the 75,038 attendance record at the old lane. i've seen 36,000 there, and looking forward so much to 62,000 and the noise from park lane
But 75,000 at the old lane makes the mind boggle.

According to a report published by the International Trades Union Confederation (ITUC) approximately 1200 workers have already died since the World Cup was awarded to Qatar in 2010.
To put that number in perspective the ITUC also revealed the amount of workers killed in the lead up to other major sporting events around the world.
The next highest number of deaths were from the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics with 60 people killed and the 2004 Athens Olympics with 40 killed.
Ten workers died before the 2010 Beijing Olympics and seven were killed while working in construction for the 2014 Brazil World Cup.
There were zero construction fatalities for the 2012 London Olympics and one death for the 2000 Sydney Olympics.
The ITUC predicts that there will be at least 4000 worker fatalities by the time the 2022 FIFA World Cup begins.

We have discussed this in here before. The majority have died from heart attacks due to heat exhaustion. And they can't quit their jobs because their 'employers' hold their exit visas.
It's not important though 'cos they have loads of money and that's all that matters

This is why Stadium construction is so much more expensive in this country. We actually have health and safety laws which protects workers.

That's the point, they obviously have one, how else could they assess whether they are on schedule. The point is they are most unlikely to make it public!
It’s obviously important but I wouldn’t think it interferes with completing other areas. It’s almost like the icing on a cake. I’d imagine it could be finished off last.

Still have to put in seating and the pitch after. Which is fairly important to some people.
Why do you have to put seating in after?

Cause all the wires etc are laying on the terraces at the moment. We have to lift the roof first.
