I am fully disability inclusive and think it is hugely important.
But an absolute architectural FUCK UP putting them there.
Not only becuause the ground looks empty, if we score (a big if) then there are not a huge influx of fans on the sides to celebrate with.
But also, if i was a wheelchair user id fucking hate it. How do they even see? They cant stand, its so low down how would they see whats happening on the other side of pitch? Give them better views higher up ffs.
I'd like to think that, because the terraces are modular in their nature, it wouldn't be a huge exercise to change the layout. Can't see it happening though.
Old Trafford is an interesting comparison, where all the wheelchair spaces are very visible in the East stand, but they're grouped together and laid out in levels so don't impact on the cohesive flow of the main seated terrace, plus they're so heavily branded and well disguised that I think most people would struggle to identify them.
Feel like the whole stadium needs, Evertoning? A lot more blue paint etc would go some way to making it feel more like our stadium. They've done it on the concourses but not in the stands
Yea the accessible section is poorly done. How can the crowd suck the ball into the net when there are two huge concrete walls either side of the goal?
I doubt they'll fix it but they should. It's looked awful on TV from day 1.

The stadium tour well worth it, made it feel a lot more like home going round it. Can tell and the guides basically told us they aren't finished with certain aspects though. Reckon the stands will be named by next season
They must be very very nervous about the Bill Kenwright stand
