New Stadium Details And Discussions

[davidmatzdorf]

Latest time lapse. Looks like they have started work on the builds near the shipping containers which I assume is going to be the new housing and hotel.

Unless someone snuck it past me when I wasn't looking, the housing and hotel still do not have detailed planning consent, only outline consent, so they couldn't be building anything like that now. There's a whole complicated raised piazza south of the stadium - it could be preparatory work for that.

101 running story it may be the "FedEx" stadium/arena. Not a reliable source at all however...

Can't believe the traction this has gotten. It's a poor photoshop and a "my friend's uncle works high up at FedEx", why do people believe the shit spouted around on Twitter.

It's insane right?!

Interesting to read how they've been testing it at the training ground, gives me confidence the pitch will be fine.

It's amazing. I've always worried about the join between the three parts of the pitch, ever since it was announced, but it seems they have been testing it out thoroughly, so my worries are subsiding.

I can't access twitter at all. Says their is a problem with my password and click here. Do that and it just says error.
No great loss.

Wow, the OS reveals the moveable pitch will be installed over 12 weeks from October. Things really moving fast now...

I'm surprised we've got the football pitch as being the bit that is moved in/out, while it's the NFL pitch that's "permanent".
Seems odd considering 20+ football matches per season and only 2/3 NFL games.

I am sure there is a reason - probably with how best to care for the grass pitch particularly with artificial "sun" lighting - but I think the expectations will be a number of non-NFL events at the stadium also - concerts and such, where they will want the grass pitch out of harm's way. And, they hope that the NFL grows to 10+ games per year if a team relocates to London.
