Parramatta Stadium Rebuild and other stuff

[hindy111]

I saw this kent pull out an Aldi plastic level walking around and checking all the railings lol. Hindy111 ?

Why would they be level if on a stair case? A tape measure or string line would of been needed

Firstly, I'd just like to say that your pic updates have been the best of anyone and I can't thank you enough for what you have provided.

But, I don't understand where your paranoia is coming from with regards to some of your comments.
You seem to believe that Bankwest is the Parramatta Eels stadium, and ours only. I don't understand why you think this. It is a state govt owned stadium and is rented out to any available tenants that wish to hire the stadium.

Yeh, sure, the Eels have primarily been the major tenants over a long period of time. That changed in 2012/13 when the Wanderers came on board.
There is no issue with sharing the stadium with another major tenant. One plays the majority of their games in winter, the other in summer. Without each other, there is no way we have the shiny new stadium that both the Wanderers and Eels now have.

As for the Tigers, Bulldogs and Waratahs, they will just be very minor hirers of the stadium.

It will always be Parramatta stadium for the Eels. That, there is no doubt. It will always be Wanderland for the Wanderers, who see it as just as much as a home ground as the Eels.
I'm not quite sure why you have a problem with that?

As for part of your last sentence in the first post I quoted - I'm sure no one has ever doubted that.

I just like to tickle a few wanderers fans. I am a Sydney FC fan but enjoy the atmosphere the Bloc create at games.
I understand we share the ground and we are both the major users of the ground.
I was more implying the later.
I found it unusual that while at the opening, there was more footage, colour and digital signage of the Waratahs and tigers than the eels on the screens.

A leagues a novelty.
Will it be around in 10yrs?
One things for sure it has ruined the soceroos. Young players hanging around now and developing less then would in Europe.

Just been told they forgot to add a separate scoreboard and timer.
Apparently, was not in the scope and therefore not quoted and allowed for. They are rushing to get one delivered in the next day or 2 and mounted ready for game day.
Apparently it has to be separate to large screens and everyone is laughing at how this was missed.

Sounds like a typical government project........

surely the tv screens could display the time and score?

Maybe he meant the shot clock timer.
But he did also say score board need to be separated as per new rulings.
Will confirm shortly as we are having a beer later

There are a few seats with bad views that do not get sold. Maybe can be used for security etc......

A few seats out of 35,000 is hardly worth blowing up about.

30,000
I thought some of the finishing touches where poor. But easy fixed. I highly doubt the club would sell a ticket to a seat with that view.

Granted. But, those seats should be for the pie vendors only.
