Work at stadium with extra seats: photos?

[Deleted member 18477]

Jeez man, you really have a problem with anyone that says they don't like the look of it. You throw out the " you're saying disableds should be hidden under a some coats" rubbish. Its not the position, it's just the way it looks. Why aren't these things on the West Stand? Why weren't they there this season? Stop trying to suggest I or other have a problem with diasbled seating. Its just that it looks bad. I'm sure other new Stadia have delt with it differently. Now get off that high horse.

Just an observation but wasn't the stadium designed well before TB got properly involved?

He's been involved a lot longer than was apparant at the time, happy to leave the limelight for Dick for years

Yeah but, and i'm happy to be corrected, the original plans were submitted somewhere around the year 2000 mark? was Tony REALLY thinking that far ahead then? I doubt it.

this is how I thought it may look

 

[sharpey38]

looking at their ground it is probably the most similar style to the Amex

How big is the capacity of the Reebok

Big fan of the reebok. It's got a bowl shape but still has character.

I think this has been quite a level debate thus far, unusual for NSC, not too much testosterone, don't bring the level down [MENTION=318]Captain Sensible[/MENTION] and [MENTION=865]clapham_gull[/MENTION]

I usually like to have a moan, but for once I wont. Think that the ESU looks really nice. When full it will look amazing

The wheelchairs have been placed somewhere for their maximum appreciation. The fact that that (fairly poor) mock-up doesn't show the ESU in a manner you'd like doesn't follow it's wrong. The fact that you're comparing it with other stadia show you're approaching the whole argument from the wrong angle.

As for why things aren't the same on the West Stand...? Have you noticed the relative sizes and designs of the East and West Stand? It seems you want perfect symmetry. If that's your prime motivator, go to Southampton. Or Middlesbrough. Or Leicester. You'd love it there.

As for people comparing it with Bolton - I wonder if space was such a consderation when building the Reebok...? No, didn't think so. It's also completely irrelevant as well.

At least some people seem impressed... !


just hope the seats are moved closer together, 35000...eventually !

Looking more closely at the computer generated image... Are we certain they're not corporate boxes then? As there appear to be seats in front of windows. And the disabled platform is above that?

Why aren't these things on the West Stand? Why weren't they there this season?

Do you honestly not know that ?
