overhanging tiers

[QPR71]

modern stadium designers want to keep the inside seating of a stadium smooth like a bowl.
this moves supporters away from the pitch. like the emirates.

i think tiers(levels) with the correct overhang will help keep atmosphere even if they
dont look so pretty on paper

can someone tell tony

have a tight stadium-someone posted a portugal team?? two tier for the away fans-one big f uk off home end-like the old loft.

If we will be using it for other events we have to consider the best layout for gigs ect also.

we help to figure out what "staying close to the pitch" means given our/my crude knowledge of engineering.
TF and co figure out everything else:=):

All I hope is that the stands are close as much to the pitch as possible to keep the atmosphere.

That is exactly what I reckon the inside should look like. Nice and enclosed. Fans close to the pitch.

if you check out the wikipedia entry for the Red Bull arena in Salzburg,look at the pic there and you see how close the stands are to the pitch

its a combination of how close first row is too the pitch.
angle of stands and how the tiers are set. got to get this right
it can be done by the look of those pics
