The stand he is talking about isn't the temp stand.
He is talking about the eyesore that is the South stand and that should be disregared this close season.

Considering its an "A Grade" stadium, Headingley's away end needs improving.

It does indeed but I'm sure I read somewhere it's not viable with the houses pretty much straight behind it

Not a builder or structural engineer but surely a roof could be erected on the away stand at Headingley? I think the reason a new stand at Leeds is not possible is due to the new rules and regs over how big the steps have to be and would reduce capacity something Leeds are not going to be in favour of. This is why a roof would be a cheaper and surely a more practical option?

South stand already has a roof.

Who said south lol Sorry meant away stand.

Can we move away from the leeds and hkr grounds and get back to talking about the imaginary new grounds please.

If Leeds are eventually going to redo the North and South Stands would it not make sense to install a roof similar the smaller stand in the Aviva Stadium over the terrace? That way it covers the stands, doesn't mean they have to build on their neighbours' land, doesn't impinge too much on their capacity and means that the newly installed big screen doesn't need to be moved. It would also be more beneficial for their neighbours because a structure like that retain a lot of the crowd and PA noise.

The Western Terrace is destined to always be open - there's little benefit to Leeds for spending money to cover it even if it could be achieved. Quite a few people like being out in the open anyway

10 pages of speculation and chat and not one word about baby changing facilities. Shame on the lot of you.

Who graded the stadiums?

A roof on the Western Terrace would significantly increase the height of the stand and would no doubt be objected to by the residents living immediately behind the stand. And given some of the ridiculous objections put forward against the new South Stand plans by certain Leeds City Councillors on the planning cmte, any increase in the WT height would be refused by the Council.
Plus there are issues around the public walkway immediately behind the stand. As I understand it, the lack of redevelopment on the Western Terrace is not to do with cost or step height or reduced capacity but purely on the fact there are residents houses and a public right of way immediately behind the stand.

Since the new screen has only just been put in, I can't see there being any significant work on the WT in the next 5 years at least.
