If I were to rock up at Bramley Dock, how close to the new stadium could I get?

Pretty close. There's a big wall around it , but you will be able to get some good pics

Right on it

Park in a side street

Doesnt look very steep or intimidating on that Meis picture.

This image from latest video I think gives a great idea of how close and steep the stands are. This is taken from South stand pitch aide area.

Not a chance they are fitting a pitch in there.

I've seen that photo somewhere before....

Where's the restricted view?! FFS Meis!

Where's the restricted view?! FFS Meis!

With my history of purchasing terrible tickets, if there is one, I'll find it.

pretty sure they will remove the cranes and the various metalwork to get one in…..

Oh right, some kind of pitch expert are we now pete??

Collingwood dock (about 150 yards before the stadium) is generally open, you can just drive in or walk and get a great view of the stadium from the south stand end.
There's a kayak propped up against the outside gate, local kayak/canoe club play there and at least 1 business In there.
If its open no one will bother you

Got to say, the stadium looks great on the clip on Sky. It will be one of the top stadiums when it is completed

Any reason why the cantilever sections on the East Stand are being fitted without the roof panels as they were on the West Stand?

That local news piece on BBC was excellent in giving you an idea of how steep and close the stands are to the 5 aside pitch

Ive also never tried it, but I see loads eating it and it sometimes looks decent.

The foods decent. I mean it's not gourmet standard but then who looks for that on a match day?

They also do a roaring trade with the restaurant converting to a bar on match days. Tables can be booked for a scoff and they normally have an ex-player on then a singer after the game.

Made up they're moving with us.

The roof looks like it will cover all the seating when it's finished. I hope it let's enough sunlight in to enable the grass to grow. I remember hearing a few stadiums - possibly AC Milan - where the turf suffered due to the structure blocking the sun. With the orientation it suggests neither goal will have direct sunlight for 3pm kick off's - and the sun should be shining on the righteous home South end as the afternoon

Any reason why the cantilever sections on the East Stand are being fitted without the roof panels as they were on the West Stand?

Probably easier to lift and less likely to be impacted by wind. The panels aren’t actually fitted they’re simply plonked on top and then get spread out and secured. No panels on the south stand and north stand we’re added after.
