just out of interest are the geordies ever going to continue the 2 teir to the other 2 stands??

**dave208** · 19th March 2003

those are some ****in high stands at newcastle

united should fill in those corners if they cant afford to buy up the land and build an appropriate south stand

**jimbob2002** · 19th March 2003

Elland Roads East stand is one of the largest of its kind in the world, and theres a few occasions that I have only been able to get tickets (eg Man U games) for the back row of the stand.
Now thats fuking high, on the way up the stairs you are paranoid that you might lose your footing and slip, this makes it harder to judge your steps properly, its mad!

Binoculars needed to make out who players are sometimes, or maybe thats just cos I probably need glasses for looking long distances!

the east stand will not be extended due to the fact that the buildings behind it (on the bottom right of the photo) are grade 2 (maybe 1) listed buildings and so arent gunna be knocked down and i dont think the stqands are allowed any closer.

the gallowgate stand backs onto a road, and whilst not a major road there is also the large carpark, and the srawberry (pub) and hence also wont be extended, its a shame cause we could increase capacity further and have an even better lookin stadium. but really im happy as it is, whenever i go home the first thing is to drive past st james, its only 3 mins from the station
