Such a shame its not going to extend further. Still its an improvement.

The area under the roof supports will be additional capacity as well


Its really good to see the club keeping its promises, well done to all involved

Agree with this.

That was him! Get a PM sent over - we could do the -kicking at the KC next weekend; he was an FC fan wasn't he?

Hmm I agree that it would obviously have looked a lot better if it had have gone up to the bar, but it won't look any different from Salford famous "Shed" at the Willows, which I thought looked alright.

Even though it's not what we might have wanted, the larger capacity and maybe finally a place where those of us inclined to sing can get some kind of atmosphere going

- I sometimes feel a bit embarrassed at how quiet BV is.

Looking at that it looks like the roof will only cover the back part and leave the front open





No I have changed my mind

it gives you a better idea if you take the bloke holding the rope to how far the beam comes out.

Looks like it covers most of depth of the terrace to me.

Has anyone got a link to the original design concept?
Good to see some progress being made

And what are Cas doing to improve their ground whilst waiting for GH to be built? Bog all!

Looks like the beer trailer going nowhere.

I don't recall them having to promise that they would.

True

But they should!

Nah - let's for once celebrate our own success, however minor, without making it an e-peen measuring contest with Cas?

Most of the Probiz Coliseum is covered. What minor improvements would it need?

A pleasant atmosphere would be an improvement, instead of feeling like your going to get beat up or sworn at for wearing opposition colours.

A better name?
The definition of Coliseum is "an oval large stadium with tiers of seats; an arena in which contests and spectacles are held." None of that applies, particularly the "contest" or "spectacle" part.

The entrance to a stadium is a "vomitory". That seems to fit though.

I'm here all week

Ive just seen a pic on another forum.It looks like they have reduced that end at the back of the sticks.Its gonna be an improvment though and if Wakey can do it temporally, why cant Leeds do the same at the back of the posts?good luck trinity

Thats out of order, I've never yet had any bother at WR - plenty of jolly banter but not a sign of trouble. As far as the atmosphere goes, one of the reasons why we're putting roofs up at BV is to try and make the atmosphere more of a factor - you can't blame Cas for having what we want!

WR on derby day is a BRILLIANT atnmosphere, and the fact that you're close enough to the pitch to feel involved is something RL fans everywhere will pine for when we're in our new plastic stadia. Thats progress, its inevitable, but we're possibly the last generation to be close enough to the players to get a response when we barrack them

No mate thats the west stand not the back of the sticks ,Back of the sticks is next faze

cheers

I was thinking the exact same thing. I think if we straightened out the away stand we would be able to do this, yes it would cut the capacity down in the away stand a bit but in the long haul it would be more beneficial.

glad to see the new stand going up, hopefully we can get the western terrace rocking from now on!

Have to say the new roof looks of pretty good quality.

Once the north stand and west stand are done it will be a good improvement.

The west stand only looks to have a third undercover roughly which is a shame but i suppose sky will have had some input in that.

once the two roofs are up will we be seeing a few more minor improvements or will that be all?
