They haven’t decided yet, the Wheatfield changing rooms were supposed to be used solely for the back pitch. We’ve also got the space where the shop was too, another bar for the Wheatfield punters perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamboGraham Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 39 minutes ago, SUTOL said: The main cameras will still be in the Wheatfield and other locations around the ground. The studio is for the pundits etc to sit. Indeed but the question asked was if the sun would be a problem. The slight angle on the glass reduces the glare coming into the studio and also prevents any reflection of studio lights back into the camera. If there was still a problem you could shoot the panel slightly from above (a couple of centimetres) rather than direct making sure there is no sun glare.

Before I say this I'm not saying we will ever do it but from an engineering perspective it's not impossible. The trusses only support the roof and provide a home for the floddlights.. I expect we will move to LED floodlights along the length of the roof before too long.. The roof support could be replaced with cantilever but given space constraints a cable stay system..

JALBO Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 (edited) A change that most of us may not get to see, but I think the Director's Lounge moves down to the ground floor this season. I'm guessing that'll be the escalator coming into use then. Also, now that the final configuration of the seating in the main stand appears to be complete, it looks like the obvious capacity of the stadium is something like 19,950. I know it's been mentioned several times by the club that the capacity will be over 20,000 when all is said and done, so it'll be interesting to see how that pans out as work is completed.
