More than 1, 000 pre-cast concrete piles were sunk into Pride Park to start the work on the new stadium. This was followed by 6, 500 tonnes of concrete and more than 2, 100 tonnes of steelwork. The final cost for the stadium, which includes later additions, now stands at around £28m. Instead of the original 30, 000 seats, it now has 33, 597. “Although there are no immediate plans for further development, the shape and format of the stadium means that it can be extended to take up to 40, 000 people, ” said spokesman Damon Parkin. The pitch at Pride Park is five yards longer and four yards wider than that at the old Baseball Ground and has a three-metre grass margin. At 105 metres long and 68 metres wide it meets with standards for international venues. It has hosted three under-21 internationals and an international friendly. Mowing the pitch one way is a seven-and-a-half mile route. Cutting it both ways and marking it out for a match is a 19-mile trip. There are 26 miles of undersoil heating.
