They didn't sign anyone in the summer did they not?
Looks like this stadium will be a mill stone.
Bit like their good friends arsenal.

One of our engineers at work who's another ST holder of the spuds has been shooting video updates on a drone of the stadium build as he lives around the corner, his latest being a few days ago, you can see that there is certainly more than 8 weeks work left!!!

He has to be careful not to fly his drone directly over the building site but the video does give a great insight to the build.

If you have the time go back through his previous videos to see the progression, it's quite interesting watch.

Really impressive Stadium, will be the best in the league IMO. I like Arsenals stadium, but this is next level and looks great.
