TWUKO 35 Posted 23 November 2020 Report Share Posted 23 November 2020 Looks really impressive, as mentioned, don't think that will add 16k. More like take the whole stand to 16k. Just wish they'd do a bit more to the north and south stands, even if they just made the roof taller to blend it in and make room for an extra tier in those stands in the future. Other than that really good! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The new bits the lipstick the old bits the pig. I'm sure the pig will be eventually replaced by a Stallion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

These match up with the pic that @Billynomates posted, but there's no chance that would add 16k seats. I think that looks like barely 8k. I'm not a big fan of the way it looks. Never did like curved rooves much. Not important, though. Main thing is the extra seats. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ricey 2,115 Posted 23 November 2020 Report Share Posted 23 November 2020 No way is that 16k seats on top of what we have. I would say that will take us up to 40-42k. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah absolutely, just obviously this is the only tangible thing we have to go with until further announcements from the club. It could be more detailed info from the original KSS drawing in 2018.

Heymister2015 445 Posted 23 November 2020 Report Share Posted 23 November 2020 Could it lead them to doing the same to the main stand at a later date ? And that’s how there getting 16k extra! That would be 8k on each then 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Think there’s an issue with the foundations on the west stand but equally if they are prepared to demolish a stand and rebuild it then I don’t see why it can’t be done. It’s hardly in a worst spot than Fulham’s new main stand. Edited 23 November 2020 by Fox in the North 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It’s hardly in a worst spot than Fulham’s new main stand. Exactly and then it becomes a stadium that looks amazing from all angles!! Move all hospitality and reception/dressing rooms etc to the new stand which they are! So that would leave an entire stand empty ready for work! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Heymister2015 445 Posted 23 November 2020 Report Share Posted 23 November 2020 Credit to the owners! Currently the stadium and surrounding area looks like a dump! This will transform this area from Beirut to royal Kensington! I just don’t know why they don’t buy filbert st and build student accommodation. Make even more money Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If the East Stand and Training Centre replaces a lot of the 'business' accommodation they could eventually knock it down and rebuild, I wouldn't be surprised. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I kinda like it, though it seems like an early artist impression to me. Like others have said there's definitely not enough seats there for what we've heard. Or hospitality, which is where we'll make the money. Also, I thought the tunnel and club operations base was going to be moved that side? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cameron Davidson 114 Posted 23 November 2020 Report Share Posted 23 November 2020 I know it has issues, but someone tell me what the problems are with the foundations? I remember that it was mentioned before and that is one reason they cant do music there.... haven’t read specifics though.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Miquel The Work Geordie 12,018 Posted 23 November 2020 Report Share Posted 23 November 2020 Doesn't look too bad, dare say it probably doesn't wow too much because the render quality makes it look like its from a PS2 game 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
