They plan on doing that work in 6 months, fair play that is pretty quick.

...aren't they building 1 new stand?

Presumably this shiny new shell to their existing stadium (because you couldn't knock down and rebuild for that price in that timescale so it must be just adding a new exterior to the existing interior!) is contingent on them staying up because I can't see Parish chucking £70m+ on a stand when they really need that to spend on a playing squad to get them back up.

Breaking News: Brighton fans in "Palaces new stadium plans look sh1t" shocker
34k keep up lads.
34k keep up lads.
New STAND.
The biggest shocker is that, finally, Palace are showing some interest in infrastructure investment.
Let's hope, for your sake, that Roy keeps you in the Premier League. Your c16k average Championship gates will look even more sparse if you have another 8,000 seats to fill.

Fair point, they didn't remove the whole thing like I said. But all of the seats are new and the interior has been totally remodelled. The only thing they really kept is the concrete steps and shell right?

I said new stadium plans not new stadium. Not very bright are we.

Corrected for you. Though actually I don't think the main stand extension plan looks too bad as it happens, other than the odd wing things.
I wouldn't brag about the 34k though, as only about 8k of those seats will actually have anything approaching legroom. The real shame of this plan is that the Arthur Waite stand is not being replaced.

As far as I am aware, this is stage 1. I would hope in time this is replaced and/or completely re-furbed.
Your spelling and grammar suggest you're not very bright, no. Surely you should be in some kind of after-school programme right now?

... and the spacing between the seats. Note that they are further apart in the new part of the stand because they are subject to current regulations, regulations that don't apply in the original part of the stand 'cos they weren't concerned about that sort of thing and everyone was much shorter a hundred years ago!
As far as I can tell the only reason they kept the old stand was explicitly to avoid the new regulations and thus achieve a higher capacity.
