I was there last Friday to get my ticket for the Cardiff fixture, I thought the pitch looked in excellent condition.Didn't really look at much else though, too busy thinking back to May and the last time i was there. Going slightly off topic but this has to be a big factor in our success over the past 2 years. No coincidence since the rugby left, our home form has been immense. in 2013/14 we only won 2 away games.... so the reason we only won 10 at home would lead me to believe that we were crap....
edit: looking at the table for that season scunny who finished 2nd won 10 at home, so all in all home form during relegation wasn't to blame at all....

We'll never know, but I'm guessing not having a ploughed field for a pitch in the conference gave us the best chance and helped us have the best home form in the division and bounce straight back to the league.

That graphic looks like they've extended both west and south stands. Can anyone confirm this from a recent visit, or is it some form of poetic licence to make the stadium seem grander than it is?

The south west stand is on the ticketing platform now as well! But south stand remains as was.

Good spot but you still can't select/buy stand tickets though just standing tickets? I can't see worrk could have started until we got the official go ahead from the Safety Committee on the 11th?

I was at the Mem saturday and can confirm that nothing has happened yet with regards to stands. The South Stand is as it was last season and there is empty space where the SW Stand is meant to be reappearing.

I've still not seen anything on the o/s etc to say the Safety Committee gave it's approval for the increased capacity?

I just hope that the Mem will be able to cope should a Pokémon mysteriously appear there before the first home fixture. Mind you will be a good way to attract a good crowd - put something on Twitter that a Pokémon has been spotted in the Dribuild and the kids will come flocking in their thousands.

If that said PokeAman, Balders would be there like a shot !

You would think that the club would let us know things like this. and I would have thought that they could have made the South stand larger as it was a few years back.

Thought somebody said that was considered but there's now to many data cables running though that area to now make it viable, as the cost involved in moving them would outweigh the income?
