Back to Evatt.....one of my customers is a Bolton fan,really nice lady,after we played them earlier in the season her husband said "When did we start playing Rugby ?"
Apart from the fact we`ve had a Rugby team for years,this was complete boll*cks,and just shows how thick some football fans are,and it`s usually the ones from so called "bigger " teams.

Makes you wonder if they watch the games or just go off what managers, media and sky sports say

It's just confirmation bias. Lazy but everyone does it, including us with other clubs.

I noticed that Jack Wilshere is struggling to find a perm deal anywhere.

Just signed for Aarhus Gymnastikforening in Denmark until the end of the season.

Yes it was put on the free agent thread a few days ago
It’s just til the end of the season though as you say and No club seems to want to offer him a longer deal which might be due to his wage demands

Not saying they can't do that or that all stands have to be the same height, the east stand is already lower. And two stands are stepped.

If the north or south stand capacity was increased it would be by installing more rows at back within the same footprint, the height of the roof would be the same as the west stand (as that is what the stadium design allows), this would go all the way across (otherwise those in stand near the east stand wouldn't be able to stand up) with one drop where it meets the east stand.

Miller.....i was looking at what you said today when i went to the shop, and sorry to disappoint you but the seats go to the back now. To get another 2000 seats in it would have to be built as an overhanging structure. Another 2000 seats is nearly the same as what in now so it's just not possible to do what you suggest.

Sorry, to disapoint but I'm not too disappointed to be fair.

I like most here don't know what it would look like as we've not seen the plans. If you have please share.

Based on the info we have, they said that changes to the current ground would take a few months, so I doubt they would make significant changes to the current layout.

Nothing has been mentioned before about 2nd tiers to north or south stand, only the east. So, it is most likely they would extend the seats up/back.

I did look again last night. There is the current boxed off area at the back on the north and south stands, behind the back row of the seats. This is easier to see if you look up from below from the concourse. It just has the steels, no concrete steps. This might take another 4-5 rows (but hard to tell), so including the NE corner and SW corners, this would only add about 1000 seats to each stand. But, would need another 9-10 rows to the current stands to make the 2000 seats for North and South stand (including the corners), meaning it would overhang at the back.

Though, as I said above I've not seen any plans or designs of the options.
