Title: Future Stadium Developments Post by: mattboyslim on Thursday, February 1, 2007, 12:10:57 The new Liverool one is nice, agree on Luton, but then again they perhaps are destined to have a weird stadium, as anyone who's been to Kenilworth Rd will testify. The oldham one look Ok too. I'm a fan of clubs who try something a bit different, the Sarfend one has tried it, whether they've suceeded is another point?
Title: Future Stadium Developments Post by: McLovin on Thursday, February 1, 2007, 12:14:34 The Sarfend one looks a bit special. I like their vision.
I hope Brighton's never goes ahead. Title: Future Stadium Developments Post by: OOH!

Title: Future Stadium Developments Post by: Sippo on Thursday, February 1, 2007, 12:47:22 The weirdest ground I've been to has to be Braga's. Built into the cliff and you have to go up stairs to the stands then down to your seat...

Very interesting place as well with bullet proof glass surrounding the away end :shock: as well as tunnel out of the away end up into a private train station so home fans cant get at them. Believe this was all put up because of mental clashes between Feyenoord and Ajax fans after games. Fond memories as well as day of our tour round the stadium Swindon Tartan Army walked into a lamp post, classic walking through Amsterdam with blood coming from his head and people asking how he did it :D Title: Future Stadium Developments Post by: SwindonTartanArmy on Thursday, February 1, 2007, 15:42:39 Quote from: "stfctownenda" Best stadium I have ever been to was the Amsterdam arena Ajax's ground fantastic stuff.

Title: Future Stadium Developments Post by: Give us an S on Thursday, February 1, 2007, 18:06:15 Going back to the original point of the post, alot of these grounds look nice, but many will be so empty. Look at Darlington. Great ground, but whats the point when you get 4000!!! Its like Queens Park who play at Hampden!
Title: Future Stadium Developments Post by: Whits on Thursday, February 1, 2007, 20:35:46 give me a shit ground with some terracing anyday of the week...bit of character at least 8)
Title: Future Stadium Developments Post by: Supercake2 on Friday, February 2, 2007, 08:57:09 The Cardiff stadium up top looks suspiciously like the reebok.
Title: Future Stadium Developments Post by: Sippo on Friday, February 2, 2007, 09:48:58 I think I'd prefer a 'squared' off stadium not an oval one. I liked Boavista's stadium. Right on the pitch had also have safe standing.
http://www.eurotopfoot.com/img/bessa.jpg Lets break the mould. I want opposing teamjs to feel the pressure when they visit us!! Title: Future Stadium Developments Post by: Give us an S on Friday, February 2, 2007, 16:57:42 Yes i dont like these stadiums which are no where near the pitch. That stadium looks like it would generate an awesome atmosphere and very intimidating for visiting teams.
Title: Future Stadium Developments Post by: janaage on Friday, February 2, 2007, 17:00:28 An updated Loftus Road would be a nice model to base it on.
My 2nd favourite English ground that. Title: Future Stadium Developments Post by: Spud on Friday, February 2, 2007, 17:03:32 That picture of what the new Liverpool stadium will look like, is identical to the Emirates.
Title: Future Stadium Developments Post by: mattboyslim on Friday, February 2, 2007, 17:15:12 I like loftus rd too, very clautrophobic- a full house is loud and intimidating. Square stands do see a bit more 'English' I'm not the biggest fans of the bowl, it's all a bit plastic for me. Some jumbotron screens could fill the corners nicely, or executive boxes would be cool.
Title: Future Stadium Developments Post by: STFC_Gazza on Friday, February 2, 2007, 17:16:40 I hate bowl stadiums, I detest them, no atmosphere and completely lacking originality.

St Etienne are having a decent season this year, which is good. Zaboub's old club you know.

Only non-British stadium I've been to to watch a football match (New England Revolution 1-0 Chicago Fire) was at the Gillette Stadium in Foxboro. Yes, okay it's an American Football stadium but it's still a great stadium to visit. http://www.bostonbridalshows.com/baystatebridalexpos/gillettestadium.jpg P.S. This wasn't the game I went to - I wish the weather was that decent and that many people showed!

Take Carlisle's ground - a new stand that is built yards out of kilter with the pitch..why not change the pitch!! Yet they have still got the three gabled end stand which I reckon is fantastic. Wolves have a great ground but what happened to that brilliant stand that started with small V roofs and just got bigger. Ther was a time when it was brilliant going to different grounds, pretty soon everyone will have the same concrete bowl - and don't even get me onto floodlights... you never had to work out where the football ground was when you drove to a new town, you could see from miles away..now you haven't got a clue. At least the County Ground is still loud and proud Title: Future Stadium Developments Post by: le god cuervo on Wednesday, February 7, 2007, 12:17:16 Quote from: "OOH!
