BT Sport reporting that a decision as to whether we go back to Wembley for some games has been postponed until this Friday after the fixtures have been announced. Decision was due before the fixtures come out
It hasn't been definitively explained, but the best guess seems to be that strips of turf covering the rails will be removed whenever the pitch needs to be wheeled into the stadium.Been racking my brains over this for a really long time and I’m not sure if it’s actually been answered...
How are they going to hide the tray rails on the NFL pitch? Surely they can’t be exposed?

Really, really clever. Makes perfect sense.I think the 48 hour delay is interesting. It can’t be to do with stadium progress nothing will change in 48 hours. Maybe it is to tie in with a naming rights announcement. So they can on Friday tweet we are glad to confirm spurs 1 st home game at the xxxxxxxx stadium will be on ?

Expect DOH ratings. I asked the same the other day...Been racking my brains over this for a really long time and I’m not sure if it’s actually been answered...

Strips.

If the video actually answered the question, instead of simply animating the principle of the tray movement, perhaps people would've stopped asking it.Probably because people have been asking nearly every other day for weeks. It has been answered a lot and the same video posted numerous times.
Remember reading they can sort to be flush.So if there’s just a thin strip of removable turf over the rails with maybe an inch or two of padding underneath, won’t it feel different to walk/run/get tackled on those sections? It looks like the turf without rails underneath has rather deep padding below it, at least 6 inches or so.
I read every post on SSC and there is just as much uncertainty there. All I do know is that the method of covering the rails will be revealed soon and, I can predict with complete confidence, that the design will be fit for purpose just like everything else involved with this outstanding project.Remember reading they can sort to be flush.
Think they talked about it a bit on Skyscraper City.
I don't think it is clear at all.It’s not a guess you can see them laying the AstroTurf on live cam 6. There’s clearly removable strips over the rails.
Looks like they've just put the final roof cassette onto the south stand. It's amazing how quickly they're getting this roof up.
Does anybody know if another layer has to go over the cassette, or is that it, once they've filled in the gaps?
