Quote Trinity1964="Trinity1964"Looking at the video of the new floodlight pylon going up it looks like it is stood back quite a distance behind the east stand and not in the ground. Must be positioned ready for the redevelopment of the east stand.'"
All the pylons are in the same place as the existing ones, it’s just new pylons and lights and nothing else or at least that’s what I was told.
The only issue with the old lights was that the bulbs were hard to get and the lighting rig had degraded making them unreliable.
The new halogen lamps use a fraction of the power, start up within second and last forever. They are also brighter.
The big plus is that they make renting out the 4G pitch profitable where as the existing wouldn’t.
Relatively small step as regards first team games but a massive step regarding improved revenue.
