    New Stadium Details And Discussions

    I understand that fans are pissed off about not being able to watch these games at NWHL. However, all this bitching and moaning about refunds is a bit rich after much of the same about the ticket price increases. It backs-up Levy's explanation that the new stadium will be vastly improved in...

    Ooh... first pictures of the metal cladding. Something's been bothering me for ages about this.... Won't the people inside the stadium looking out onto the backside of this cladding just be greeted by a bunch of spider webs and stray crisp packets? Looks like a bugger to clean, so I presume it...

    Ok, I might be being stupid here, but this sentence defeats me. Can someone translate it into plain English please?

    Urggh. Why are the columns basically red and white?! How hard was it to paint them literally any other colour?

    Cedric Soares

    Just got back from lunch with someone who would know - we put in 2 separate bids for Cedric a couple of weeks ago - both rejected by Southampton. Couldn't tell you amounts. This is not how a feeder club should act.... (n)

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w3cstwvy Nothing earth-shattering, but this podcast looks at money and football - it includes an interview with a Populous architect talking about NWHL which may be of interest.

    Newcastle vs Tottenham: Match Thread

    Match day butterflies are starting.... Fundamentally we're a much much better team that Newcastle - so we should beat them. Especially since we've shook off our aversion to playing away recently. Our performance will tell us alot about our the squad's mentality, spirit and togetherness since...

    Hmmm, yeah - the only stuff that can be classed as substructure recently would be the Park Lane foundations I guess? If that's the case, they can't possibly have been delayed by 2 months already. That area was only released from the demolition crew a few weeks ago.

    Ross Barkley

    Although, if net spend is to be zero - we still have to spend about £70m this window!

    Filip Benkovic

    Knowing absolutely nothing about him, I would be a bit more hopeful that he could adapt to England better than that Juan Foyth chap - Tim Vickery didn't fill me much hope about him.

    Kyle Walker

    https://twitter.com/SunMartinB/status/885764567481159680 #Mcfc say walker fee is £45m to be paid in instalments. Then max £5m in add ons. So it won't top £50m

    A pile cap is a thick concrete mat that rests on concrete or timber piles that have been driven into soft or unstable ground to provide a suitable stable foundation. It usually forms part of the foundation of a building, typically a multi-story building, structure or support base for heavy...

    I think the 'box' you are asking about are the 'pile caps'. These are great big lumps of concrete that are used to join several of the piles together to better spread the load of what's above. You can see from the pile plan below that there are a bunch of pile caps planned for under the South...

    This is the basement level - only the hotel area needs one - which is already under construction.

    No basement needed on the South stand - the pitch slides directly out on the ground floor (this is the same pitch-shaped parking area that will be used during football matches. Remember, fans enter the South stand via a raised podium..

    My understanding (from spending too much time on Sky Scraper City) is that the 'critical path' of the project is the knocking down of the current stadium, the building of the south stand, the sliding pitch and the roof - none of which can be started until we move out. With the current plan to...
