I must have just missed mr and Mrs Gruntfuttock, though saw a number of other people get out their cars and take some snaps of the stadium.
Anyway here are my pics.
The BIG NEWS.
We have outer cladding, and its
BLACK. not red or silver as shown in the artists impressions, but BLACK.
It makes me wonder if the stadium is going to end up clad in RED, WHITE and BLACK, which just happen to be the colours of Mr Big's favourite soccer team.
Most of the glass cladding appears to have been fitted for the South stand, it can be seen at ground level going round to the West stand
This pic shows the main entrance
The south east corner showing glass and also the entrance steelwork
The roof line in the South East corner is far more interesting than is normally the case with stadia
Here we see the East stand fully roofed, and also an entrance being built right in the middle.
A close up of the massive concrete Kerbs being put in.
Two entrances have also been built for the North stand. Below is one of them
I cant help put visualise the fact that these entrances with their cross bars connected to vertical posts look like rugby posts.
Wonder if this has been deliberately done so fans enter the ground from under the sticks, so to speak??
The sanded pitch looks like a golden bowling green at present.
Its also noticable that there appears to be a disabled balcony at the back of the West stand, in addition to the disabled platform lower down the stand. This upper platform isnt shown on the council planning website.
