looks like there finished for the day. 2 of the cranes have vanished aswell.
New stadium piccies taken today, along with some pics of the adjoining Tesco
A view of the Stadium site with teh extent of the stand construction. Please note that the Tescos will pretty much fill the left hand half of the site on this picture when complete, which gives you some idea of its size
Took this to give an indication of the angle of inclination of the seating stand.
seven out of 18 roof supports for the South stand up in one weeks work.
Close up of the steel work showing how its bolted together
Now onto the Tescos
The Tescos already looks big but there is still a lot of work to be done before its full length is revealed
Tescos is one serious wideboy
