ok guys; seems to be almost a month to the day since the last photo update, so i thought it was about time i took another walk. it was a bit rainy this morning, but i managed to dodge the showers and snap a couple of pics!
i tried to get the same angles as last time where i could, but they have moved a couple of the fences to allow for the building works, so some of them are not quite the same.

and here is the second lot.
i managed to get a good one this time from the west looking over to the new eastern stand. progress on site looks to be good - the southern (old "family" stand) end looks to be 70% complete, and the progress on what looks to be new toilets next to it is coming along pretty well too.
lots of steelwork has gone up on the new eastern stand. walking around there they had some of the large steel trusses on the ground - it's hard to get a sense of scale from these photos but they are about 3 to 4m deep! that is a serious bit of steel!
they have also started to fill in the eastern stand terraces in places.
the turf is still in good condition (obviously it needs to be as the Glory are still playing there), but i am sure i read somewhere that it will be ripped up and new drainage installed as part of this upgrade.
more to come next month!

Cool - thanks MM :-)) That stand looks mighty steep though! Jeepis!!
and here is your bonus photo - it is a close-up of the "artists impression" from the main project signboard.
i don't know whether it was the architects who put this together, but perhaps they could give our new attack coah some pointers. their team formation (from what looks to be a scrum) is unorthodox to say the least!

"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!" - Rocky Balboa
