It would appear that a trench has to be dug around the full ground perimeter to accommodate the LED advertising. The fixings have to be "built in" as opposed to surface mounted as part of the IMG reqiurements. Possibly necessitating removal of part of the concrete terracing.

That would make sense.

You'd have thought if there was any major improvements being made, that it would have been announced that works were commencing

Improvement works to lower tier of the North Stand

Looks good.
That bottom area needed the uplift.

Probably increase the capacity too

Excellent, glad it's getting done. It messed with my OCD that it was left out of the renovation of the NS. Will look much smarter now.

Exactly, always irked me even though I understood why. Just needs the rear doing and a better roof and that stand will be one of the best popular terraces in any sport.

Part of our rebuild is showing to other clubs and other supporters that we are really different from the Wakey of old. I like that the ground is still recognisable as Belle Vue, but that doesn't mean it should like tired. That will be Cas's short term issue, that take away the packed ground and Sweet Caroline, they soon look like 80's rugby league. For a long time, we were in that mould. What is being done is taking us out of it, and securing our future.

Anybody know what they’re doing with the west stand large team banner? It’s obviously outdated now.

I wonder if it would be better having the clubs crest/crests on there so it could be utilised indefinitely till works commence.

Has anyone heard anything?

Matt mentioned that briefly at Shareholders.
He said they would do a new one.

Though I don't know if they'd keep it if they develop the West.
I quite like it.

Totally agree with you PT, I know some players on it will have moved on but looking across on match days, the difference a simple banner as made to the west stand is massive, the printing company will be rubbing their hands if it’s going to be replaced every time a player comes and goes.
