Admin Ian M Posted February 10, 2015 Admin Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Can someone else at the game please confirm the steps on the terraceing of the new stand on the Williams side are on the wonk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Cyril Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 I am pretty sure they are not flat. The back bits are higher than the front bits. Bloody rogue traders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK0wnag3 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Can we just confirm the amount of cider consumed before said observation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Ian M Posted February 10, 2015 Author Admin Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Can we just confirm the amount of cider consumed before said observation? None, I was working in the build up to tonight's game. Not sure it's even a temporary "wonk" as they are part of the pre-cast concrete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lack of Action Man Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 They aren't just on the wonk, they are outright wonky. Not sure why. But feeling that someone needs a new set square set! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leveller Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 I'm more concerned about the concrete surrounds to the exits, which seem very high, to the extent they'd block the view from nearby seats? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P'head Red Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 I'm more concerned about the concrete surrounds to the exits, which seem very high, to the extent they'd block the view from nearby seats? I'm sure this won't be an issue, considering the amount of money and time spent on planning this rebuild, i really doubt they'd let something so obvious slip by. We need to wait until it's finished to pass proper judgement, have faith! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 I'm more concerned about the concrete surrounds to the exits, which seem very high, to the extent they'd block the view from nearby seats?

RedM Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 I'm wondering if were are going to have seats or will we be issued with a BristolSport branded cushion to sit on in this stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashton_fan Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 I think the project is a few weeks behind schedule. Remember watching a video on Bristol Sport where the project manager said all the steelwork for the South Stand was due to be completed by the end of January. Assuming the project is still running late in the summer I guess they'll have to sacrifice some of the internal work to ensure the stand can be used for viewing matches at the start of the season. I suppose as long as the building structure is in place with seats, emergency exits and toilets then a safety certificate can be issued. Other parts such as catering outlets could be completed later.

I believe it's around 3 weeks behind due to a delay in steel deliveries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTFiGO!?! Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 Not just Football experts on here mind.Cracked I up! Another otib classic (no offence intended Madger). Where's Big Tone when you need him? Believe he's involved in multi-million pound engineering progects in Saudi Arabia. I'm sure he'd have something, ahem, very sensible to say on the matter. However, if he didn't use expert terminology such as 'on the wonk', I'm just not sure I could take him seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There do seem behind schedule. I fully ecxpected the steel work frame to be in place before concrete steps are to be laid. I was told the steel was cut incorrectly and new steel had to be ordered, not sure how much truth is in that, but its taking a long time just to get the steel structure up.
