Fair play. How about putting the pics of the new stand under construction on your official website?
KOH
ya, drove up the dyke road this evening and was very happy to see all the metal framing of the new stand showing over the boundary walls.
Where is your new stand bveing constructed?? Is it directly across from the main stand or behind the goals??
It's across from the Current stand.
Some pics now up at http://www.galwayunitedfc.ie/menu-it...o-gallery.html

The two sets of floodlights in front of the new stand will be placed on the roof of the new stand, the end ones will remain. There will be a new TV gantry built quite soon on the current stand.

the official opening is the day before the Sunderland Game.
Where exactly is the stand ? Is it only covering a small part of the Ground or is there more stand to follow so it stretches to the end ?
i think its is going to be just in the central third/half for starters - it can then be extended on either end to the full length of the pitch as necessary
opposite the existing stand. i personally thought it was going to run most of the length of the pitch but maybe it's not :confused:Quote:

i know from the design of the stand that blocks can be added
Slightly shorter. It will run at least 80% of the length of the pitch.
What's the capacity of the new stand?
