Wouldn't that be where it'd be setting on an early season evening match?

Would have been lovely to hack the CAD servers of the company that made the replica so that we ended up with a badger up there.
At least the stadium is up and running somewhere....Another render from FIFA 19.
Looks a bit weirder in this. The south stand with a pretty big gap. This is a still image from the promo video from a few weeks back. Maybe the final version (in the game) will look more like the one posted earlier.

Ok? I'd like you to explain that. The sun certainly sets in north west where I live. Actually, during the summer it doesn't set at all here, but that's another matter. At 6pm the sun will be west. If it's still up after 6, it will be west-northwest. Unless London has suddenly moved south to the equator, the sun will be up past 6pm during summer.

So you believe the NWHL is moving to your neighbourhod ?
Oh - that's interesting. All the bold bit appeared after I typed my reply.
The proof for your assertion will be out there ... won't it ?

Garth Crooks
It won't be high enough up to light up the pitch like on the render, but where is the sun here?
Whiffler

South West'ish.
Find some proof - use the old stadium - lots of pics to find your obvious truth.

Wrong. West-northwest.

He's right Kandi. The sun basically shines from the south everywhere north of the tropic of cancer. The south stand atrium will be bathed in natural light.

They've never gotten it right! With the amount of attention to detail they have paid to other things, it's pretty weird, especially with a brand new stadium.

And the stadium is not exactly N-S (or S-N, for those who see things differently). Nonetheless, the sun does not rise or set in the NW.
The 'game' view is from an error in the Club/designer captioning many moons ago - perhaps even dating from pre-single tier south stand. As things stand (ouch ... a pun !), the sun may hit part of the southern end of the pitch when high, but it will more often hit most of the northern end.

Sorry to be a pedant but.........
"Each day the rising and setting points change slightly. At the summer solstice, the Sun rises as far to the northeast as it ever does, and sets as far to the northwest. Every day after that, the Sun rises a tiny bit further south."

"He's right Kandi. The sun basically shines from the south everywhere north of the tropic of cancer. The south stand atrium will be bathed in natural light."
Try telling that to scandanavians come mid summer.
OK I live in Leeds which is north of Tottenham but at this time of the year the sun definitely rises and sets north of the East/West axis.

During the longest day of the year the sun is as far north as it gets but relative to WHL it is still south. The sun is shining north, that is the direction of it's rays/photons are shining north, but relative to an observer in WHL the sun is positioned south.

Right.
Firstly I owe you an apology Whiffler as I didn't look at the gif in your original "Sun in the NW sky again !", assuming it to be the evening shot in the post immediately above.
Secondly, although during the summer months the Sun transits the sky mainly to the South it will rise and set North of the East/West axis, particularly the more northerly the latitude. Yes, the Sun never goes higher than the Tropic of Cancer but the tilt of the earth means it sets further North.
Thirdly, by the time we get in it won't fvckin matter anyway, cos the Sun will be pretty much gone, unless Sky schedule a sunny lunchtime kick-off

Surely the sun is shining from the South East in that picture? Hence the shadow being over the Southern end of the ground and only the North West portion of the inside of the stadium being in sunlight.
I'm not sure we would ever see a kick off early enough for the sun to be in that actual position however. With the sun coming from South West being more normal for most kick offs.

Actually it is from the south west. It is setting. That's my last comment on here about it.
