I have to take this back as I heard the seat colours are to match the caddick construction brand of dark blue.

I just think they're a darker blue as it looks better

This is confirmed on the kick and clap 2018-19 season ticket information here https://www.yorkshirecarnegie.com/tickets/ticket-information-201819/ticket-information/ The new Caddick coloured seats were made in Oz, they are all padded and have plenty of leg-room on the aisles. (Not plastic as it is in the Carnegie) The middle section has not been completed as this has been allocated to the Press Box area and has yet to be fitted out. There is NO press area in the new North Stand. The new South Stand should be handed over by 30th Sept 2018 and the North Stand (Rugby side only) will be completed by 31st Aug 2019. I hope this helps

Interesting. As a tall chap who suffered at Elland Road this year in the most cramped seats I've ever been in it's good to know about the legroom.

Out of interest, how do you know all this (if you don't mind me asking)?

Re: Stadium Redevelopment : Sun Aug 12, 2018 4:49 pm  

I try to go in north east or north west corners at elland road. more legroom

Very interesting that the press will be based in the south stand at the centre of the field. Surprising also. Is that a permanent fixture for once north stand is completed? I wouldn’t think the press would like it on that side.

I’m also told that the club are looking at changing the side windows on the Carnegie Stand aswell as the seats.

It's permanent - the change needed a tweak to the stand's planning application.

To be fair the seats in the north stand will be quite pricey too so it comes at no surprise that the club will want to make money on them.
