Can't say i'd noticed.... but now that someone's pointed it out, yeah it looks rather different to when they were new.

Like most others, a roof is a roof. It's still a million times better than standing under the wet trees in the Withdean south stand!

I quite liked the green, until I saw the original blue.
Beautiful photo that.

But, just imagine all of that as solar panels (nice new style discrete ones).

They should cover the roof in grass so it's 100% eco friendly

I can see the eco merits, but the current roof covering is just corrugated plastic. The steel structure would easily take the weight but fixing glass panels to plastic would be more than a bit dodgy.

Besides, we don't want it looking like a big shiny glass box like them up the road with their stadium, sorry, stand renovation...
