Neil you know how I hate to disagree with you but for me the winner is:
'water piping in North East quadrant building'
NB: I did very excited going through the pictures waiting for the 'exterior wall light' and it didn't let me down.

You are both wrong!
'Main Stand first floor function room furniture' (36/40) is the clear winner. Water pipes and exterior wall light are both unique. But a chair??
By the way i don't want anyone thinking I don't appreciate the pics. They are great and they have kept me up to date! Its just some are quite funny!

Re: latest Globe photos
Posted: Fri Jul 30, 2010 7:13 pmDespite my earlier reservations about the blandness of the Stadium, I have to admit that the Main Stand looks impressive. The red and white colour combination for the seating is excellent.
Just out of curiosity has the open media area been kitted out with all the usual technology for the Press with it being exposed to the elements rather than enclosed as at CP?
The TV gantry stairs on the exterior of the North Stand seem a rather odd place to be located. Just hope that there is a security gate at the top so as to stop the local youths from gaining access to the ground outside of match time.
When all the advertisng hoardings are in place, we will have a ground to be pleased of which answers the clubs original brief of being a community facility rather than for the exclusive use of a football club, unlike many other new builds.
Excellent.

Re: latest Globe photos
Posted: Fri Jul 30, 2010 7:55 pmYep, I was thinking cycle rack - for away end I can see that being popular. Maybe a few will pedal from Coventry or Oxford? 
Who's got seat 45 under the leak in the roof?
What are they going to grow in the western plant room?
I'd have thought adjusting the floodlights 'for maximum effect' would be best done when it's dark.
Oh and it looks as though someone's dropped his nuts in the urinal.
Sorry, but I can't believe it's going to be ready in time. Panic stations
MR MANNERING!

Re: latest Globe photos
Posted: Fri Jul 30, 2010 8:46 pmMaybe slightly controversial but I think it looks awesome and will be home in no time.

If that is the case, I for one would be happy, I would rather have that than a soulless lego stadium like Chester's,
Re: latest Globe photos
Posted: Sat Jul 31, 2010 12:32 pmSome less than flattering comments on other forums about The Globe Arena.
What the hell......we'll be self funding whilst others struggle to make ends meet!
At least ours is original AND of value to the greater community outside of football.

Posted: Sat Jul 31, 2010 7:09 pmhas anyone seen the pictures of how all the stands will look with the advertiment boards on.
The west stand looks like it's going to be called the Bay radio stand
