Thanks for the update, I have a real keen interest in the stadium redevelopment and was initially disappointed with the north terrace update as it seemed abit of a downgrade. However needs must and the main development is the east stand which is going to be the biggie for us. If your asking do they intend to put a backing onto the north stand to increase the noise going towards the pitch think this will make a big difference and add to the match day experience. And if the new terracing is higher because of steel, framework etc and not terracing can we go back much further without having to alter the roof (basically will extending the back section be relatively simple when money allows)
I will ask that.
My suggestion is a simple one and I’ve seen it done. Basically hang a giant canvass prints from the roof behind where the terrace ends. You can get these tough outdoor prints at huge sizes, you often see them hanging outside new apartment developments in length and width that could easily hide the North stand void.
The real beauty is that you could get a a sponsor to pay for it as they could have their name all over it.
Last time I went to HKR a few years back they had used similar to spruce up there main stand.
There is always a way.
