Got this from the Melbourne Victory forum - Disaster if it's true

"Just heard that the stadium opening date is going to be pushed back by a significant amount of time. Supposedly the weight of the entire metallic bubble dome structure is causing cracks in the bottom tier of the dome which is attached to the foundations of the stadium. Similar to the problems that caused the Ferris Wheel to be closed and rebuilt. The electricians putting in the LED lights have been told they are no longer needed until this major problem is fixed by the company responsible for the bubble dome design/construction"

If there are such major problems why are they still adding roof panels on the Western side ??

I have been watching the Live webcam on the MOPT website and more panels have gone on since yesterday. Until there is Official news I would rather believe the evidence of my own eyes :) :)

Why do you think this is in the Dribble Bar?
