Looks brilliant, can't wait to get back. However sitting in the Riverside during a freezing easterly gale at home to Burnley on a January evening sitting high up in the stand doesn't look so appealing.

Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most...

How steep are the steps going to be. Freeze the video on 18 seconds and have a look. Us oldies may need an escalator to get to our seats and my wife will have to bring her inhaler.  092.gif

That said the whole thing looks so impressive and the views from the last few rows of seats will be amazing.

Each update increases the excitement.
I have always requested a Christmas gift of 10 days holiday in the Bahamas with a couple of Bond girls, I think next year I will replace that with a ticket for a high level seat in our new stand.

I could have a zip wire straight to my house, not that I would be able to get to the top.

Well, us Riversiders are known for our car blankets & flasks!  Wouldn't surprise me if they install heated seats?

Those shots from Greswell Street are mightily impressive,  when you imagine that the floodlights are still to go across the roof line it will be interesting to see the impact on the local area when we have a night game (and yes I realise the lights will be pointing down but they will still be highly visible)

Looking at the picture of the old stand really puts it into perspective.  To think that over the years some people have considered us lacking in ambition.

Whatever they're paying that bloke on the steels at 0.27...it isn't enough.

When the swimming pool is built it's going to be one hell of a dive off the top board!

One of the things which I think we fail to point out enough is just how impressive it is that they have managed to build this monstrosity of a stand with no interruption to play at the ground.  I mean, how do you build a Saturn V rocket and simultaneously play football matches right beside the gantry? Great engineers, that's how.
There is only one Fulham Football Club.

I hope that's "monstrosity" in a good way....?

Something that's really going to spoil that view is Stamford bridge. Can definitely see straight over to it at the top.
