THE FAST CHANGING APPEARENCE OF LECKWITH

Popped along to Parc Nin today to buy tickets for next week's friendly to FC Twente and was pleasantly surprised to see changes underway and developments taking place in the car park all around the athletics stadium.
A few pictures follow showing times are a changing fast at Ninian Park with digging having commenced all around the athletics stadium near the car park entrance and the far side of the astroturf pitch. There are also a huge bank of portakabin offices now installed on Leckwith Road next to the car park entrance.

Almost two thirds of the car park appears to have digging, plant and portakabins in place or is fenced off so the only area of the car park that can now be used in the tarmaced section between Sloper Road entrance to car park and the athletics stadium.

Car parking on matchdays is going to be real fun this season. Maybe the club needs to make a deal with local transport as happens at Brighton and Southampton amongst others allowing free bus travel to the ground to keep traffic away?

Life at CCFC will never be the same when this goes

Much of the car park is fenced off and covered with machinery and earth


Executive Boxes for the new stadium?

No, it's the site offices now instealled ready for the stadium project

names and numbers printed on them

In no other area of life, would that face model anything!
