Guns aimed at picking stragglers from the sailing club who said it was too glittery :005:

Maybe they could set up water-baloon sling shots to try to splatter the rowers--charge a small fee!!   yee-haw!

It does look the tits!

Will be intersting to see the effect it has on the atmosphere inside the ground with the corners now blocked in, should mean less noise escaping from the ground I would have thought?!

Thanks for that-looks truly great and enhances that reach of the Thames?
Never in my wildest dreams whilst standing ther on a cold Tuesday night prior to watching a Branfoot team,that one day it would look like that.(Or that we might be banking 20 million quid for a couple of players over the next couple of weeks-sadly)

Yeah that too. May even result in one less layer being needed in the hammy end in the depths of winter.

This is currently my computer background, and everytime I look at it I gush like a school girl with a crush. It really is a big deal for us.  :dft001:

It looks stunning.

This beats any transfer story we're likely to get, for me.

it's class. obviously i'm biased but i genuinely think the juxtaposition of this and the johnny haynes stand brickwork gives us one of the most beautiful and special stadiums in the world, and certainly the most special that i'm aware of

...and with the mj statue as well! wow!

Fan-bloody-tastic.

The Architect has done a great job on this, a stand that oozes class for a ground that has no equal.

Does anyone know who will be building it, or how much it will cost?

Does anyone know when the building process will start? I read (dunno where that was) that we can continue to use the full 25,700 capacity during the process...so does it mean it will start during the season?

We have to build the riverside walk first. Then we build round the stand and the roof, removing the current roof and further adjustments during the off season.

Maybe a tweet to Sarah Brookes might help eh sonke?  :dft012:
