Anyway whatever if they mean what they say about completed by 2019 they are going have to get a move on

Will the south stand be seating or a terrace? If they do build the new SS with a different style of roof to what we have now and make it all seating a lot of the atmosphere will be lost. Look at the DW stadium that's all seating and there is no atmosphere there hardly, although that might be down to them having fans.

The DW's main occupiers are Wigan Athletic though so their was no chance for them to have a standing stand. Look at a out and out RL ground like Warrington and they have standing in the 'new-ish' stadium so I'm sure they'd keep the South Stand as a standing stand.

The original plans had two tiers, the upper one had seating & hospitality boxes if I recollect rightly.
Those plans were rejected by the council for being too high.
The revised plans showed an all standing new stand.
