Probably unlikely, the Bristol council are all over it like a rash and planning permission was granted a month ago and they've already done a deal to sell Ashton Gate to Sainsbury's. Pretty certain they've approved a decent looking fan plaza for the World Cup as well, with big screens and all that shit.

Now Wankyman has to build it to 44k like he wanted... Nevermind, the location is a good one, so i can see why they chose that souless hole. God, can you imagine flying over from some nice city to watch your country and being holed up in MK? Sheeeeesh, ceratinly removes the romance from the WC.

Even though it's Franchise, I think Stadium MK is brilliant ground.

It's very good in some ways. But I have no idea how they would expect 40,000 people to access the ground, park their cars and amuse themselves before and after the game, given that there is ONE pub nearby, and its crap. |

By giving this to Franchise, the FA are legitimising Wankleman's plan. He's got Asda to build them a new stadium, and now he'll be entitled to lottery money, to extend their plastic soulless ground for the WC.
I bet Derby and Leicester fans cannot believe they've lost out to them.

Totally agree with this. Although having recently had dealings with the FA regarding their thought processes around awarding funding I'm not at all surprised ! |

If you want the world cup to be the party, why choose a ground where the facilities are an Ikea and an Asda. It really is a fucking joke how the FA are up the arses of Franchise.
Having a venue at Plymouth will make a white elephant stadium down there. They'll be shooting down the leagues soon.

The FA legitimised the decision the day they let him move the club. |

All they care about is how shiny the ground is. Not interested in the slightest about football heritage in this country.
StadiumMK has absolutely nothing to offer the football world apart from shiny seats. Imagine being a visiting fan from another country, and your team got drawn to play 2 group games at Stadium MK, when you were dreaming of Old Trafford, Anfield and Wembley? Its a disgrace.
Leicester isnt that far from MK and would have been a better choice. The investment there would actually be useful as well, instead of somewhere like MK or Plymouth, where it will be absolutely useless in a few years.
