maroonlegions Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 I'm going to guess all maroon. Just a feeling. Would love a big HMFC, or maroon and white alternate blocks. What about a big FTH . 5-1 .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BelgeJambo Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) The gap between the seats looks about 19mm to me and I'm sure the minimum for it to be UEFA compliant is 25m, can someone get a ruler and check this? Fully expect this to be posted on weeteam.net by greenminger as fact Won?t get many seats in at 25m apart Edited October 6, 2017 by BelgeJambo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OBE Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 We really are spoiled in these modern times with regard to the speed of photograph/media distribution. Years ago meant spool purchase from the chemist, correct insertion of spool, snap away until spool's finished, return to chemist for development, 3 days later Argh! 24 watery, insipid shots, wrong setting. Piece o pish these days. Great appreciation to all sharing their photo's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Francis Albert Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 From the pictures it looks like the seats are individual and not like the old ones metallically joined in such a way as to prevent them being separated from each other when we demolish the new stand. Great news for souvenir hunters in 50 or 100 years or whenever who want to buy their seat. Incidentally has the design life of the new stand ever been stated?

Andrew Gilbert Wauchope Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) Quick question, folks. Do we know yet if the new stand will be open for the Killie game? I'm be coming up to Edinburgh that weekend and would love to get a ticket in the new stand if I can. Yes. Yes we know or yes it is? Or both? (Aye, pedantry is alive and well here in Sheffield ).

scuj1 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 So we would need to change the seats every time we change our kit manufacturer??? Pretty sure the manufacturer would pick up the tab if this happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Francis Albert Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 According to .net about 20-30 years.Great. I think I remember our other three stands were supposed to have a 25 year design life. I reckon with reasonable maintenance they are good for another 50 years if we need them that long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing too exciting but the plans now show changes to the turnstiles and the plaza. Only one badge in the paving! There?s other stuff showing location and construction of electrical installations.

Buffalo Bill Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 One for Thomaso, perhaps...
