I think it is.

Must keep the players well away from all the plebs

So it will be situated parallel to the north end of the west stand, between the top of the steps and the wall of legends images. Because they'll dig out part of that bank it doesnt look like it will effect much of the current pedestrian space. & it looks to include a raised walkway between the car park & the west stand.

Are the away team coaches going up there as well?

Sorry only interested in improvements for supporters

And with that feedback in place we can all go away and fine tune our posting habits

I wonder what that will mean for the current bit of car park the club own next to bennetts field, and the grass bank next to it. A hotel still an option?

You can bet your life on it

 

[brighton_tom]

Does the club own the bridge car park land? Or do we lease that on matchdays?

They must really struggle for nearby parking for Directors .Players senior staff, media, American Express/Sponsors ,visiting VIPs and I know Tunnel club members of which there are 50 have spaces next to Bennetts field
Soon 1901s will be told to get P&R

Kiboshs my plan to cover the walkway round the west and extend out the hospitality areas (PB friendly that part) and make west upper concourse a bit bigger.

 

[Stuart Munday]

Plans are now showing, I assume this will be for the players as well then they can access the ground without having to get through the fans via the walkway.

Makes sense for the players, directors and high profile guests to be able to get to the stadium without fear of assault or aggravation. Sad but there are a lot of nutters about.

I know players can’t sign stuff after the games anymore but I only found out a couple of weeks ago that they are taxied from the North Stand to the car park after the games which is quite sad.

After the Newcastle match I took my 8 year old nephew to the bit where the players car park is, to the right of the Terrace, and was pleasantly surprised to see a few players breaking the non-signing and non-selfie ruling – JPVH and Jason Steele to name a few – all signing away and selfies galore.

But the biggest rule breaker of all... was our Fab! Who spent a good 15 minutes walking the temporary barriers, signing autos and posing for every selfie he was asked of (including my nephew – who was esctastic). Barbs won't like it, but I had a new level of respect for these three in particular after this. Made a lot of kids (and adults) very happy.
