33 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 In fact if and when we can afford it, I'd build it into the South as suggested and then have the last bank of the South and the new SW corner for away fans. Let them have the last bit of the South corporate as well, which I would imagine would be easy to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

33 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Sit where you like West Stand upper. Separate the seating for the south third of this stand with a bigger buffer so it is easy to add segregation to give a bigger allocation when needed. Too big a step to try and get safe-standing for the bottom half...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharrowowl Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Just put some cladding on it and cover the presto bit on it. Then spend more money on facilities for home fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parkerowl Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 fantastic idea to be fair away fans could be crammed into one of the corners. 3k max like we get everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike312 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I agree apart from the away fans will be in the North. Also they could incorporate a proper studio in the "Wycome" corner rather than us having to build one out of scaffolding, tissue paper and uhu Every time we're on 'telly.

shandypants Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Wednesday will build a shiny new stand and give it the away fans..nailed on Yep. I can see that happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanzaroteowl Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Why not just keep most of the original structure and seating, Take the back of the stand out to where the current turnstiles are and house the concourse in this new section. Encompass the NW corner in the process. A lot cheaper and less upheaval a venture to get the desired outcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdan2003 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Why is a museum "tinpot"? Given that Sheffield is where football was born, and Sheffield Wednesday are a pretty big part of the history i think a museum is what we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lesbarbeux Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 1778062_3968dccc.jpg Knock down the West Stand this summer. Put the away fans in the South Stand lower for a season (West Stand end) Build a brand new stand that marries up the end of the South Stand, goes around the back of the goal, and meets up with the end of the North Stand. In it build two or three floors of corporate boxes, and get it up as high as possible with a bank of steep seating that's close to the pitch. Build into it bars, restaurant, and museum When it opens rehouse away fans elsewhere, and give the home fans the West Stand and make it a 'sit where you like' stand, where you just turn up and go sit in any seat you want, while the Kop gets a new roof and loses those damn great pillars.
