Looking at the plans I don't think so, as the corners don't go as far back as the North and East stands do.



Potential expansion in the future would be to expand the corner(s) and add that floor. Of course the business interest will have to be there for that to happen. The building of the other corners will come first.

Looking at them pics i am well impressed withe the stadium expansion, cant wait go go next season when its completed nice one

Its looking good guys, really suited for you.

Do you reckon the other two corners will be filled in in time for the WC?

That looks fantastic.

Lets hope the new sections are full every game.

Yesterday's offering:

If wonder if the extensions create opportunities for further sponsorship?

i'm waiting for the widnes fans to come on and allege we're doing half seating half standing cos we've runout of seats, like last time.

I actually can't wait to see this finished. Looks class.

It looks superb.

looking gooooood

The only light disapointment is the top of the south stand is lower than the top of the east stand and the new corner has been simply continued round at the height of the south, instead of somehow trying to stagger the difference. Be interesting to see what the step down looks like when complete.

It will look really good when it is fully enclosed in 15 months time.

Are they going to close the NW and SW corners, i thought they left them to aid the pitch maintenance?

Wish they'd sort out that random block of yellow seats at the back of the North stand (East side) while they're at it, always wondered what that was all about.

Taken today by me.
Sorry about the sidewaysness.

NW probably, thats why they have changed the seat number this year
SW -unlikely to be for spectators but there are rumours of it being turned into a media/scoreboard corner. You can never rule it out though as the club have said this expansion will take capacity from 13k to15.5k with a view of increasing to 18k

When I looked the other day I actually thought that corner was lower then both stands.

How are they random, if they were intentional? They are the padded seats for the new boxes, with something similar being added in the new corner.

Not likely unless another large sum of money is found, the NW corner has to have a large enough entrance for emergency vehicles to get on the pitch and continuing the terracing in the SW corner won't be that much of an increase of capacity, the concourse wouldn't be able to be continuous either.

You would've thought they'd have blue seats, in keeping with the colour scheme?

If the builders find themselves at a loose end at any point can they construct some sort of sunlight blocker so I don't have to watch most games shielding my eyes from my speccy in the East Stand? (I know I could just move stands but building some massive structure to stop the sun would be much easier)

They look random because the only other yellow seats in the north stand spell out WWRL. These ones don't signify anything and are also a different shade of yellow. Hence they spoil the overall look of the stadium.

What is happening with the support struts for the existing stands? Are they going to remove those or will people in the corners be taken back to old school grounds and have to dodge either side as the play moves up the field?
