I probably didn’t explain it well enough. By filling in the gaps, i meant the small slither of space in between each section. You can see when the sun shines, long narrow lines of sun breach through the gaps into the stadium. I don’t know the technical terms, but they are doing some work to make it watertight I guess. (Highlighted with thick pen)

Obviously there are bigger gaps where the cassettes have yet to be installed. (Thin line)

I was referring to the missing cassettes

They were craning materials down in to the sky bar, there was a tweet from a company who are installing some staging in there.

And the gaps between rows of cassettes are being filled in. The other cassettes will no doubt be put in when the access is no longer needed.

Why does everybody write that this way round when it's 'Paxton Paxton give us a song, Paxton give us a song'? It was the same with the England's number 1 chat when Robinson was in goal for us.

But then again, maybe I'm just anal.

I bet you know the traffic light sequence back to front as well

I'm just imagining that south stand completely sold out, singing the Nicola Berti song...

It'll be marvelous.

okay I will wait patiently for it to appear

And nothing since then? Slacker.

definitely a slacker as I'm sure he had last week off, or did I decide to give it a miss, I can't remember:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: I know I said I was going to try and leave it for every other week or 3, because it's now getting to a stage where he says "they have done so much work this week" or "there is always something going on", and I think, "it doesn't look any different since last week":ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Nice to see they are have started to install the fillets in the gaps between the roof cassettes. It makes sense of the plans a few pages back. Also are filling in the gaps in the rounded eaves. Great stuff!

(y)

looks like 2 or 3 glass panels have been smashed:X3:

and when will they finish the eves, not the filling them, I mean attaching them 2½ months before our 1st match:cautious:

My guess is that they are prioritising those areas of the stadium that will contain fans for the first test event. Once those parts are finished they will move on the those extra areas for the second test event, and so on. I seem to recall that the South Stand wasn't going to be a part of the first test events, but I guess they will be by the last event, so will be finished last!

Sure it's been mentioned before but can someone remind me what we intend to do with storage facility site when ground finished?
Will it continue as is whilst hotel built or are there other plans?
