I think we should be kneeling in praise of Mr. Glover's magnificent erection.......oh wait........doh!

Yep, can see it now you mention it. The supporting columns do look a little slender to counter the weight of what is a substantial roof.

By the way, i'm not complaining, I think both stands look great and I think home and away supporters will appreciate the cover, and not just for the protection from the elements.

i think it's outragous. some of the weeds on the north bank have been there for decades, and will die once their light and water source is blocked off. glover is damaging a vital eco system and is an environmental vandal.

it looks a bit low to me. If people stand at the back it appears from the picture angle that they will not see much at all? Certainly you wont have a clue where any kicks are when they are put up. Massive improvement though and shows that AG is a man the RFL can trust when he makes promises.

It's like many stands, you lose the ball when its up in the air. I remember when I was down in Kent with the Company I worked for we sponsored the Gillingham v Hereford game in the old 3rd or 4th Division. We had seats in the main stand and only saw about 10% of the game as both teams played a "kick and chase" game and the ball was above the end of the stand for most of the game.

And equally why you get so wet in many new covered stadia, so you get a better view.

Just been up there and I have to say it looks massive and very impressive when you get next to it.
Well done AG and JE



Fantastic improvement and I think its now fair to say we no longer have the worst ground in SL.
We all know who that one belongs to don't we

The RFL

i think we should call it the robert hicks stand for this week only.

the rfl?

Not being serious, I am sure he will be a fan eventually.

any idea what the new stand will be named? i don't care if it's tacky, if it brings in some much needed additional revenue.

I hope so, I'd love nothing more, but he'll not be forced.

The Club are looking for advertising on the fascia so it could be named after an advertiser if one can be found.

we should club together and call it the "look what glover built ted - stand"

The Bell End?

Gets my vote then Mr Benson & Rhuby would have somewhere to stand and feel right at home!

should be called the topliss watene stand

Are you going to introduce the idea to 'r' Nigel.

Neal Fox Stand.
Debate closed!

Won't find many to argue with that.

They might if they spell it like that

How can anyone spell it wrong

. My Godson was named after Neil.

Now that should wait till Newmarket.
