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 ![Smiley](//thetownend.com/Smileys/tefsmile/smiley.gif) 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. ![](http://g.api.no/obscura/API/image/r1/escenic/978x1200r/1414041244/archive/05714/4108695272_5714708a.jpg)

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.

Nope, I think he summed it up quite well.

What's the capacity

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
