A obvious little swipe at me







Read all my recent posts in this thread. You'll see that I've stated I don't care about cladding the corners one little bit (I sit in south stand or in a box

) but was just interested if the "air flow" to the pitch is a real problem or someone just made it up.

My point is, the pitch is outside so I'm fairly certain it gets "air flow".

Nobody as yet has any evidence that stadiums are left open to provide "air flow".

Not you specifically tbh there are a few on here who would still be complaining if we had won everything for the last ten years, built a stadium to compete with the nou camp, had attendances to match, McManus had been confirmed as the second coming of Christ by the Vatican and for every season ticket you got £500! As I said some people are never happy



Air flows a tricky thing as a) it affects so much how the grass grows (and we have always seemed to have the pitch quality as a priority - we laid the pitch and built the stadium around it remember) - and b) if the air can't move it can create micro currents around the stadium etc - whilst there are bigger stadiums I imagine it would be a issue (though not the issue)

For now I'm more than happy to accept the corners aren't structurally able to hold the cladding (after all parts are walls!)

I was just making the point, I'm not moaning about the corners left open (I'm nice and warm in the box haha) it's just be interesting to know if the "air flow " thing is a genuine claim.

Tell you what Huddersfield could have done with some cladding today. Brrrrrr. The dancers must have been freezing.

I had a little walk round the stadium today (mixing with the riff raff) and didn't see any water in the bar areas at all like I'd seen before the cladding went up, so looks like the cladding has solved that problem.

I was sat in the box in the south stand but noticed the ends of the north stand is still open to the elements as the cladding is only about half way down which isn't good if you have to sit there.

While mixing with the common people, I did notice the queues was massive in the bar areas!

What was the crowd?

14137, If you believe the figures.

14,137

Would they be the ones that ran out of food and beer. Great organisation!

Not sure about that but it looked like nobody was serving when I looked and the queue was massive.

The people sat at the end of the north stand next to the west were getting rather wet last night but the weather was rather extreme so cladding the corners would have helped?

There were alot more wet at huddersfield.
