Just been past the Mecca of Football.
A couple of photos of the north stand roof.
Not sexy blue translucent sheets like the east and west stands, but it will keep you dry.
Also, bumped in to a very enthusiastic Derek Chapman.
He seems well chuffed with progress. :amex:

Nice work Mr Straw.
And it's not even Friday yet.

I think Friday may be quite a spectacular day, eh Graeme? :wink:

Is that the green stuff that's shown on the 3D drawing or is there something else that needs to go on top of that?

There will be no green stuff.
That was the old plans that had a chalk mound at the back of the stands topped with grass.
Now the back of the stands are being used, so no chalk.

......and I thought I had the scoop when I captured some video of the guys CHATTING whilst laying the NORTH STAND roof.

Bloody video has been loading since 1pm. :angry: Stand by. :amex:

That's my dad in the first photo. He's actually running the Falmer building team.

Let's hope he lets you up there tomorrow without any safety equipment on and a gust of wind blows you off.

Funnily enough, that happened to me last week.

I actually broke my leg in 4 places but still managed to drive myself to the hospital.

Another scoop for Mr S.

I think that the unsexy unblue untranslucent roof is only for the rear of the stand. I'm fairly sure there will be sex, blueness and translucence on the part that extends forward over the seating area.

Thanks. I believe you're absolutely right.
I'm told it's the only section that won't be sexy, translucent and blue!
(Sounds like a very old girl friend of mine?).
