Is that it being used as the temporary nursery while they finish the indoor one?

At the rate the pitches height is increasing it'll soon have a better view of the castle than the sky lounge.

Understand now why the club moved me 3 rows further back when I renewed.

It's really going to be a fantastic stadium in about a years time when all things should be completed

 

Here's hoping we have a team worthy..........

This is a rumour I want to see grow arms and legs.

I hope, when the directors' seating area is moved to the top of section PR (where it should have been all along), that silly looking semi-aisle in the bottom of PR is replaced by 8 or 10 seats.

 

Also, in the spirit of equality etc (and in maximising stadium capacity), the additional space afforded to each seat in PR should be disbanded, and the rightful 1 or 2 additional seats be introduced to each row. If being cramped is good enough for us minions (who will effectively own the club), it should be good enough for the 'fat cats' (who generally won't).

 

Add it all up and capacity increases by 35-65, I estimate.

I was in a few days ago and just for clarification I think the buckets are covering the sprinklers.

 

No buckets in place when I was in and some sprinklers were on. I believe soaking the sand and letting it bed in is part of the process. .

I only said I thought that was what they were covering them Hughesie :) Looking again at my pictures you are correct the sprinklers don't have buckets and aren't even covered.

 

The buckets are on areas next with nothing but sand you can see the marker sticks with no buckets. The buckets are possibly only there to stop people driving over the marker sticks.

 

Another couple of bucketless pictures for fun :)

Heard one is covering Scott Browns testes, probably just here as reference points as it has a surveyors stick next to each.

If it gets any higher the front two rows will have to look up to watch the game.....

Before the new stands were built the front rows in the stadium were well below the height of the pitch and you'd be watching the game at player's knee level..1966%205-3-1966%20supporters%20spill%20o

I like the way the club has sneaked in an extra stand as well to increase capacity. The planning department will be getting a lot of mail from Lochend :)

Aye, just can't be cut shorter than 2cm or something.

 

I think Levein really will have the grass longer again for Celtic's visit :laugh: The seethe from Brendan would be phenomenal.
