Bit of news on this that may interest Yeni. I was down the ticket office today and asked whether the SW corner would be finnished before the Boro game. I have to say that judging from the outside there is no chance but..... Apparrently there is a meeting today to discuss that very question and (apologies to anyone who knows this) it will be a new family stand. Anyone in the exisiting Family stand will be given first option to switch across. From a personal point of view I would jump at it as it will offer a much better view of the tunnel, bench, Ollie etc and should have a good atmosphere being next to the south. To my mind it looks a good two months away though

Ahem, ahem. It would be the south-EAST corner, methinks?
I'm already in the family section in the "south-west" corner.......
but thanks for the info, Pete.
Personally, I'd prefer to stay where I am - bit too near the away fans....?
YL.

Won't be that many away fans, then, if what you're saying (or what I summise) is that the visitors will be in the northern half of the east stand?

Sorry I meant SE. Brain not in gear today.
Had a look from the outside and it just looked miles away from being finished and no real action going on. I had hoped to hear some banging a least!
Big cranes parked up in the car park but no-one about.
Would be great to have it ready for the 2nd half.
And its true about the away crowd...they're staying put for now. I recon they'll end up in the North East Corner when ready (2020 at this rate?)
