Sadly, Bernard Matthews the turkey chap has just passed away.
What has he and our stadium in common? Bootiful!
The framework which held the safety netting on the East Stand roof has been removed, and the first section of "bull nose" edging is in place.
North east corner almost covered in so that's one viewing angle gone.
What used to be known as the cinder track around the outside of the pitch is being constructed.
A large part of the walk way from the new foot bridge at Falmer Station is now in place.
SEEDA road works nearly completed.
The fly-over and associated works outside Stanmer Park will be operational from 13th December.
Looking forwards to witnessing our passage in to the 3rd round of the cup against FCUM tomorrow.

It was announced this week that Prince William will be marrying Kate Middleton in June. It only seems like yesterday that I got married. I wish it was tomorrow. I'd cancel it.
Where should this momentous event (zzzzzzzzz) take place? Somewhere of historic importance. Somewhere beautiful. Somewhere where the world will be in awe of the architectural importance.
It's obvious really.
See photos coming up!
Mystery structure is a lift shaft.
Hand rails being fitted to footbridge over rail way line.
SEEDA works nearly there. They were planting daffodil bulbs at the base of the fly-over.

With students riotting this week over tuition fees, they should come and watch the Albion.
Be educated in the art of how to play football. Money well spent I'd say.
Very, very difficult now to get good positions to take photos.
North Stand exterior block work virtually complete and South Stand moving along nicely.
It looks like there's a mystery structure going up behind the South Stand (third photo). Any ideas anyone?
Concourse work taking most of the action this week.
Main area behind North Stand has had most of the base layer of tarmac put down.

With a Rolls Royce engine falling off of a huge plane earlier this week, it's reassuring to see the Rolls Royce of stadia being skillfully put together with no chance of a structural failure.
Waited for the light to improve, but alas it just got worse.
I couldn't keep my public waiting any longer, so went off in to the murk with my trusty camera and did my best.
Took a few shots on Wednesday too when the weather was better.
Get your bottoms on those Withdean seats for the magic of the cup against Woking tomorrow. 7 - 0 anybody?
