One thing is for certain.. they need another entrance/exit point for the Southstand by the next game. Having everyone exiting in the corner by the Carnegie Stand doesn't seem safe in the event of having to evacuate the stand in an emergency.

In an emergency couldn’t you just enter the pitch?

It’s not ideal entering from Carnegie Stand but I don’t see what option we have while building work is on going under the South Stand. Hopefully this will be completed soon.

When its finished the southstand will be a huge improvement on what was there before

Correct, the biggest improvement though will be the new north stand. Some of those pesky pillars/posts in the old north stand a complete pain in the neck.

The North Stand had many fewer supporting pillars than the South Stand. Whilst the new South Stand is excellent the north structure will be a highly unsatisfactory compromise in myriad ways.

It will be the best ground in Super League when completed IMO

The north stand was even worse than the southstand - anything has to be better than the old North stand

it will be way better than most/all of them also, personally i think the Kc is the best football/new ground/shared ground. the rest not very good.

Which of the football grounds do you rate as better than the new Headingley Sal?

Even with the crappy Western Terrace I think the new ground is the equal to Hudds and Wigan, never been over to Hull FC stadium.
