Headingly_mariner, please explain why a new stadium must have connected and closed corners.



Because it’s amateur to aspire to anything else.
Open corners allowing the atmosphere to leak out of 4 separate stands is not much of a vision.

Any new football ground should be looking at maximising and enriching the experience of those who go through the gate.
It’s not about doing it as cheap as possible and just getting it built, what’s the point in that?

It’s going to be our home for hopefully a 100+ years, make it something to be proud of.

Have you been to Colchester's new ground?

Agreed. Both Colchester and Shrewsbury are perfect examples of what I wouldn't want from a new ground. Soulless and devoid of atmosphere.

Yes, but that's more to do with two of the stands always being closed. Ipswich, Millwall and QPR all work perfectly well without fillied in corners.

QPR? If I'm not mistaken it has filled in corners!

I’d say Oxford is a better example!

For now I’d trade off open corners for....

- An unobstructed view
- Decent toilets
- Access to a pre match pint in a kind if fan zone
- Being able to get refreshments without missing minutes 46 to 51
- A decent ticketing system
- A pitch with sprinklers and a heating system
- A club shop where we’d be able to swing a cat
- Controlled secure parking (wish list)
- Decent facilitates for players, officials & staff
- Tte opportunity for the club to generate income from the facility

If we have to we can add the corners later

We were already down to 4 independant stands as cheap as possible before the crisis , now we have no idea whether the club will actually survive the season let alone have money to burn on planning/ development and as far as i am aware the club still havn't had any meaningful discussions with the key landowners involved. ....

altogether now...
