Not everyone wants to stand. And, as noted, some areas will be too steep. So, it will have a limited availability.

I have not seen the map where safe standing will be implemented - but the club also has to be cognizant of the handicap seating across the south stand - won't want to have people standing in front of anyone in a wheelchair - unless that "level" is actually high enough for them to see over people standing in the row in front. I suspect that might be a possibility - because nobody wants to sit in the row directly behind a group that are standing...
That's exactly what they've done. If you look at the pictures closely, you can see the bottom area of the South Stand is shallower than the rest - that's the standing section. Above the back row of this there's a gap up to the seating section (which has a row of mostly wheelchairs at the front), so they've got a perfect view.

Looks so good, I know someone was saying they didn't like how the roof didn't look great or it looked thin or something but I think it looks great.

Love the Final Fantasy boss music for the video too :ROFLMAO:

I'm sure someone has probably already spoken on this, but are the slits between the cartridges going to be filled/covered with something? Or will there be some leakage when it rains?

I have no idea to be honest mate. I'd think they'd have something but not sure what!

I went through this a week or so back, and someone helpfully replied with diagrams and whatnot showing that the slots will be covered and watertight. In fact, I believe that process has already started on the East stand but it’s hard to see on the live cams.

A few pages back there were photos of the plans. There will be a membrane going over the cassettes, and think the gaps between the cassettes will be filled in.

I find that a latex membrane works wonders for leakage, hopefully that's what they go with.
