realmadrid Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 On 17/09/2016 at 10:39, Rab B Nesbit said: Personally I think there could be some truth in the first part. I know the club have really had to push their hospitality packages in the new stand and especially midweek it could be tricky. With a season ticket waiting list of 25000 closed 5 years ago I don't go for the second part. So they now don't appear to need to expand the ARE, due to ticket prices being too low. http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/soccer/2016/09/28/liverpool-reassesses-further-anfield-expansion-after-protest/91244930/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm kind of glad he's brought this up because it's a very valid point. I still expect it to be built though and with a potential pedestrian area behind the Kop further redevelopment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that London's council taxpayers pay for the maintenance and running costs. West Ham even benefit from much lower rental charges if the club is relegated from the Premier League. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sloop John B Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 FC Krasnodor of Russia have built this absolute peach of a stadium based on the Colosseum, with a crazy 360 degree screen thing. Only holds 36000 as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, they chose Sochi instead. think the capacity is a little low, plus they probably didn't bribe enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lubo_blaha Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 This video is worth a look. I think Birmingham City might struggle a bit to fill a 55,000 seater stadium. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers and Celtic can fill 50,000 seater stadia in Glasgow. Liverpool and Everton are planning bigger stadia with capacities of over 50k in Liverpool. Birmingham and Aston Villa should be to attract large attendances in a much bigger city. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RawB93 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 FC Krasnodor of Russia have built this absolute peach of a stadium based on the Colosseum, with a crazy 360 degree screen thing. Only holds 36000 as well. Not sure what to think of the big screen. Love the gradient in the colours of the seats though, looks lush. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tongue_tied_danny Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 MTK Budapest's new ground is a strange looking affair. I suppose the enclosed ends make it look more complete than the likes of Hamilton or Falkirk but there isn't any scope for expansion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
