Presumably they'll be building houses or shops as the current ground's capacity is far greater than they'll need where they'll be after the end of next season.

Looking at those photos, I was amazed how quickly they managed to make improvements to the aesthetics and safety of the ground!

Swansea are in the process of building a new ground at the moment. You can see progress on the BBC Wales website. Thsink it's gonna be 20,000 plus. Expect the Swansea Shrimpers can confirm this.

Yes, this is true.  The White Rock stadium is being built just outside the city centre, will be around 20,000 capacity, and, when completed for the 2005-2006 season should be the most modern ground in the conference

Mind you, I go past it most days, and it's looking pretty impressive.
 
So whats the story with away fans next season? Will the work be done by then? Lets hope so i hated that away terrace , this season was like a morgue!!! A nice away stand like the one at cambridge would be nice.

All next year, while the works take place, away fans will be allocated about 500 seats in the current main stand. So, looks like you will need to be a season ticket holder to have any chance of an Orient ticket next season.

That's gonna to cause no end of problems, as 500 won't be making the trip.

But you would probably put the bulldozer in your own net!

Next season is going to be a nightmare at Brisbane Road.

You will probably get that corner of the main enclosure by the South Stand.

Maybe I am a bit cynical, but the two sided ground may make more of us long suffering Os fans buy season tickets, so Matt The Shrimp, you will not even be able to get in to the home end.

Football today Eh?
