The ticket site now has the 'dots' for the new stand. South goes back 24 rows. Less near the scoreboard and south west/west corner. 4 complete blocks of just shy of 600 each behind the goal plus a few smaller areas. If someone wants to count them feel free

So if its 24 rows and we have been told approx 2000 more seats than current (total 1500 ish in S and SW?)
There seem to be 5 full blocks, totalling approx 2400 seats
1 small block nearest the away end, approx 240 (away for small teams)
and (harder to work out) maybe 600 or so in the corner/SW
Totalling approx 3250
Home fans get the 600 + 2 blocks permanently - 1560
And up to another 1000 or so where away end is restricted
Away fans between 240 and 1500
Havent seen the dots, so pure guess work!

let us hope that gap at the south end is filled with a smart modern shiny new stand when we return to the Mem in August . if every thing goes to plan building should start by the end of June, going by my past experience in planning . |

Looks like the stand will be going over those trees at the back then . Guessing they’ll be cut right back or removed. |

Nothing in life is guaranteed! As the club have proven the naysayers wrong with a stand of 3500 that those ITK’s said could never fit in the space , planning would never be done in time ( 18 months waiting time etc etc ) , the tickets are about to be sold . Given the above , I would say they are very confident. |

They really should move the pitch towards the Thatchers at the same time

They really should move the pitch towards the Thatchers at the same time Selfishly I hope not! My seat in the West Stand is right by the halfway line. Having said that, if it's necessary for the new stand I'm fine with it.  |

At a guess the distance from goal line to wall is about 8 yards south stand, 10 yards Thatchers. After the Alex Fletcher incident being in the public eye and other numerous incidents I think there may come a time where run off areas or padded walls may become more important in stadium design. As the pitch is being dug up would they move the pitch 4 yards north and the south stand 6 yards north. Still reasonable run off, more than some other grounds I've been to |
