Its a purpose built area to be used for performing doughnuts.

I seem to recall a requirement of planning application for a (can’t remember technical name), large tank to retain drain water in order to slow down large volumes of water rushing through the sewers/drains. I’m sure someone on here will know the technical terms.

His name is Neil

And I agree he done a fab job

I’m quite looking forward to when the frame work closer to the rolling shack is up

Will give us a real good idea of the stands size

Attenuation Tank. Contains the surface water run off and holds it back in the tank and releases it at a slower rate.

Can we use the water for the pitch and save a few quid on the water rates. (assuming the bogs don't go into it as well)

I doubt it if it's collecting the carpark area run off. It will contain all sorts of everyday vehicle leakages and even salt during the colder spells.

Saw the crane this morning and some good pics from John Minards.

Great stuff. How about approaching Kammy re: media/ publicity work?

Looks nothing like a petrol interceptor which would be put directly under the car park area so the drainage/run off goings directly into the usually cylindrical tank . Seen plenty of these been done in my time and this isn’t one of them .

Kammys a very likeable character. Could he be made an ambassador for the club
.

I'm wondering why he was at BV

He doesn't do that as much now since his illness but just being there next time we are on TV would be good.
He's friends with some people at the club. He's been in the flats a few times.
He does the intro on the heritage podcasts.

Doesn't Kammy live in Wakey. I seem to remember when he appeared on sky at half time once he mentioned his family supported Trinity.

He used to live near Sandal, but don't know if he still does.

Just gone past this morning and the stand is really taking shape and imposing itself with its height it's going to look brilliant. If the Donaster Road entrance and turnstiles can be tidied up when it opens then the whole side of Doncaster Road will see the stadium in a different class

Kirkhamgate I think.

Indeed, you can see the new roof supports as you drive into Wakefield from Doncaster Road

I didn’t appreciate how high the new east stand was gonna be till I saw Chris Kamara’s video and compared the height of the new structure with the top of the North stand.

Yup, it's a far bigger construction than people think. It's not hard to see why it's so pricey.

The bigger question is, does Kammy have sugar in his coffee?

Does any one have up to date pics?

The ones that were put on fb via drone were excellent

Can’t wait for the first time I see it in the flesh

Still can’t believe it happening!

i would love to see a daily update... this thing will go up so quickly and i don't want t miss a minute!!!

What blows me away talking to Minards at the Fri luncheon club is the sprinkler system that rises up from the pitch to make sure we never have a rock hard pitch again ,which talking to Jai will be a godsend as he said in the summer it was like playing on concrete .Got to be good for player welfare and associated injuries

Yes a lot of it’s in the detail and much of it unseen. So when people say why is the North stand terrace only half way back or why didn’t we sign such a player that’s your answer.

For example they have installed a new water butt that I think holds 3 times as much water as the old one. It’s also partly fed by rainwater I think. But what matters is that before they could only water half the pitch per day, then they had to wait for it to fill overnight. Now it’s a continuous operation.

It probably only cost 20k, but its 20k we won’t need to spend again and probably one less ACL. It’s certainly the kind of money we wouldn’t have invested before.I exaggerate but you get the idea.
