Obviously we've got em, but which other clubs still have them? I like the fact that we still have our floodlights, it's traditional. I like the fact that you can see them from miles away, like a beacon. You can pass some grounds by, assuming the stadium is a warehouse or business on a trading estate. You don't have to travel too far up the motorway to experience that  If our ground is ever developed I would hope we could incorporate pylon floodlights and keep some traditional features. |

Lillestrøm have floodlights that fold down to lie parallel to the tops of the stands which are pretty funky. The ground is also right next to the train tracks.  |

Cricket grounds are good examples of how pylons are still used. There's not a level stand around the entire perimeter so pylons are the only solution. If you look at the redeveloped ones at Edgbaston, they look great (in an 'e' shape).

I would love it if we had diadora as a kit/sponsor. |

Most new grounds now have them built into the stands I think

just over 12,000. I've been to a few games there and the atmosphere has always been brilliant, especially for their local derby. I think they're looking at moving to a new stadium sadly |
