Great image capturing the historic moment of the Williams Stand demolition at Ashton Gate Stadium in Bristol on July 2,2015. The demolition marked a significant milestone in the ongoing redevelopment plan of the iconic sports venue. Ashton Gate, home to both Bristol City Football Club and Bristol Rugby Club, has undergone a major transformation in recent years. The stadium, which has been a part of the city's landscape since the late 1800s, was in desperate need of modernization to meet the demands of modern-day sports and entertainment. The Williams Stand, named after the late Bristol City chairman, was the oldest part of the stadium and had seen better days. Its demolition paved the way for the construction of a new, state-of-the-art stand that would provide fans with improved facilities and a better matchday experience. The image shows the demolition in full swing, with workers carefully dismantling the old roof structure. The contrast between the old and new stands is striking, with the modern, sleek design of the new stand visible in the background. The sky above is clear, adding to the sense of openness and renewal that comes with the demolition of the old and the construction of the new. The redevelopment of Ashton Gate Stadium is part of a larger trend of stadium modernization in the English Championship. The Sky Bet Championship, the second tier of English football, is known for its passionate fans and competitive matches. Ashton Gate Stadium, with its rich history and new facilities, is sure to continue drawing crowds and providing an unforgettable sports experience for years to come. Overall, this photo captures the excitement and anticipation of change and renewal at Ashton Gate Stadium. The demolition of the old Williams Stand marks the beginning of a new era for the historic sports venue. (Rogan Thomson/JMP - 07966 386802 - 02/07/2015)
