The latest report on the Offal is interesting and covers the shipment of the assembled roof trusses from Tilbury to the Cottage, it is a tight squeeze under Wesminster Bridge.
It's interesting that it takes 2 days to get from Tilbury to Fulham, all to do with the correct tides.

Progress is being made but the builders will be off now for a couple of weeks for their Christmas break then progress may be inhibited by Covid Tier 4 restrictions I imagine.
Construction is exempt even in tier 4.

Blimey, how many tiers are there? Anyway, you've got to build tier 3 before you get to 4.  :003:


Boom tish. Very good. For a moment you had me counting the levels on the new stand and questioning my sanity.
My pleasure Galv, btw Happy New Year buddy  082.gif

And back at you. The stand is huge ..... I wonder though if it will generate any noise. I still remember The Enclave getting eight seats in the Riverside, must have been a cup game, and we could hear Brian, six seats along, unwrapping a Werthers in his pocket. I would be content with a tour that includes taking a seat smack bang in the middle and again at the very top. What a 360 view that will be.
Stay safe........ and warm.

I suspect that the seats in that upper level will produce the most intimate and bar none the best view in all of English football. In fact I will double down and predict that the view and the Fulham supporter's experience will be so transformative that at an international level it will forever change the design concept of future stand upgrades and ground construction plans for years to come. It will become the way of the future: stands which literally put the supporter nearly into the game itself.
There is only one Fulham Football Club.

This constuction job where access is mainly from the river is very interesting and I suspect will become the subject of studies by civil engineering students. We are lucky to have such unique work taking place at the Cottage.

I tried again to upload the supposed leaked preliminary design of the other 3 stands. (From twitter, before it was taken down)

This site only allows 128kb! I compressed the image to below that... but still no joy? Anything I'm doing obviously wrong?

Anyone else seen it?  Didn't get the image of the new floodlights which look suspended above a new johnny haynes roof too. Would be nice if someone else happened to get that.

Maybe you can email it to someone who knows how to download it.

Hopefully, we should attract some decent international friendlies with the new facility. Another visit from Brazil would be welcome.

Not the whole of Brazil !

Didn't Eusebio play in an exhibition match for the opening of the last Riverside stand? Wonder if we could do something similar this time.


shepperton white

Believe Eusebio was injured for that game

Exeter played Brazil Legends a few years ago. Almost the whole squad cleaned out JJB Sports the next day. A grand opening match, also a safety test, could be a great reward/thank you for those that had to be moved out, ST Holders and Richard Osman.

Pre-Roof, but a nice perspective

That is some view, but it's giving me vertigo just looking at the pic. :005:
