looking good! :bluescarf: i don't understand why people are so shocked about the red girders though? was always going to have to red on it, at least it will be mainly grey, and not bright red with Tan's portrait on the side! :lol:

It's like saying, because we knew there was going to be red, we should all accept and like it.... Doesn't work like that. How much red is it going to take for people to wake up? The more red, the less likely we are to go back blue. Under any owner.

I assume they are going to replace the rest of the cladding over the summer to tie in with the new stand, otherwise it is going to look rather odd.

According to the architects drawings the red girders you see in the pictures are the only red on a very bland and grey cladding.

In the drawings the rest of the stadium! Remains the same. So the outside will be a mismatch and shit.

Its just shows you how little of it is actual terracing. I know it expand further down once roof is lifted....but you do get the sense that a venue is being built, not just a few rows of seats.

I think it more about events during the week rather than bums on seats to make the club money

There's about 35 rows in the stadium now, they are adding about 8 or 9 rows to the lower tier and then there's about 21 rows on the new 2nd tier.

So its nearly doubling the row count.

The bottom tier extension is just 9 rows separated, they will be the hospitality seats. Top tier will be much bigger than the grandstand

That's how I see it.

If Tan wanted to make a point that new stand could be red everywhere. However it has been given a generic colouring with a pencil thin red line that could be painted blue in a day by any old Head of Recruitment.

Tan preparing for a change?

TBH I'm very shocked that Tan hasn't renamed the stadium yet. Granted many clubs do it and stream allot of revenue, but I'm just waiting for the antics to die down at the club, i.e (on field survival battle, Palace fiasco and then Malky Court case) before Tan Circus shows starts all over again prior to next season, when the very uninspiring yet original 'Cardiff City Stadium' gets renamed 'Visit Malaysia Stadium' no doubt fans will be up in arms, divided and arguing yet again you watch!

Personally i'd rather call it something associated with all things Welsh to put our country on the world map but that's never gunna happen. The Yanks still think we're a county in England named after big fish! :laughing6:

He's not, he's a little kid called Jordan who likes to troll fans of the same team he supports, he loves the red though so it's hard to tell if he's trolling

Thanks Carl, those pics look great!

I hope we can see the stadium looking bigger in the prem next season.

But even if we go down, I like to think a bigger stadium = bigger team.
