Lets hope so Stanley, and I think we should go ahead with a new stadium, but it has to be at least 70k in sizem, otherwise I don't think it's sensible. But I am worried we'll be paying a lot more than 300m. In fact haven't we already paid millions just for all of these studies and architect designs etc? Plus I've never known a stadium in england to come in on budget.
i think you are all mad to move to far away from the City. We are one of the most famous clubs in the world and you think moving to Burtonwood would provide a platform to improve? madness. The whole spect fro many fans is the social aspect fo going to the match. Meeting friends in pubs in the city etc. This is what makes the clu special.
Recent history of clubs that moved shows what soulless places they are, the Reebok in Horwich, Boro and remember Galatasaray abandoned the Attaturk stadium becuase it was in the middle of nowwhere. All thought the 'cheap' green field site would benefit the club, all have struggles since. You need the city for identity and for the sicial elements. People visiting Liverpool are not going to leave the Liverpool One to nip to Burtonwood, are they?
A new stadium required, about 60-65k is realistic, the corporate element is where we are weak so this would be the main benefit as equal if not more important than the extra 15k seats. BUT we must retain our indentity, leaving the city not an option.
