You're late to the party, but you are VERY welcome :lolol:

:lolol: Good spot. Just to be clear - were they going to use the stadium on the left, or on the right ?

Exactly. Anyone with even the slightest MODICUM of intelligence would know to avoid the town centre at all cost, or submit yourself to being chucked in the worst pub in Brighton, then frogmarched out and herded around at the whim of Sussex Police. As it happens, it sounds like the police royally...

Which the study proved, there weren't any. Not even when they got out their BAT detector.

You know nothing about playing hardball till you've locked horns with Lewes District Council, Falmer Parish Council and various tweed-clad bearded conservationist groups for 12 years.

Indeed. Plus putting in place the entire infrastructure, water mains, utilities etc.

Ahh...willy waving on capacities. How predictable. Who cares ? Your ground will still look like a disjointed dogs dinner, and a least one side of it will still not be anywhere near fit for purpose. And that after blowing £100m on it !!. The very notion that it would ever even be CONSIDERED as an...

After Tuesday, LOADS of your mingmongs have described it as being "not fit for purpose, shouldn't have a safety certificate, completely inaccessible" blah blah. On Saturday it took me 35 minutes to leave home 8 miles away and get the 2 trains to the stadium (got there about 1.45 and enjoyed a...

You're right, the prices shot up around 2008 but then collapsed just as quickly and has since been fairly stable. Maybe its just a "London premium" for building and labour costs in the area. I suppose he's built some wiggle room into the costing, being as its actually forcasted as being...

True, but then Huddersfields stadium opened in 1994 and Readings in 1998. Building costs will have risen significantly since then. And without being snobby about it, I reckon the Amex has been built to a far higher spec than those two stadiums. £100m still seems a lot for essentially 1 stand to...

Brighton & Hove City Council were in favour of the Amex, and it still took 12 years to get permission. And Spurs applied for a CPO for that private family owned business which they needed to have out of the way before they could commence building their new stadium - the owners dug their heels in...

And Sainsburys And the people who live in the homes that need demolishing (although I expect one of your famous arsonist gangs will take care of that)

I wouldn't be getting too excited if I were them. They haven't even submitted a planning application yet, there's no agreement with Sainsburys (in fact it sounds like this is the first they've heard of it), and CPO's are notoriously difficult to push through (just ask Spurs). This is a CGI...

You can't polish a turd. But you can roll it in glitter.

Good god, that is an absolute dogs dinner. No wonder the promo video conspicuously focuses just on the outside of the new main stand, then swiftly revolves around inside of the rest of it. Its a hotchpotch, a total mess. And KSS are putting their name to it ? I suppose they'll promote it as a...

Will they still have the exclamation mark on "EAGLES !" ? I've always loved that.

From what I can see, they're painting the roof white (or cladding it, its hard to tell). Not much detail in that promo video. I'd have been interested to see some aerial views, but maybe that's all in the pipeline. Or pipedream, who knows. After all, we've seen them come out with gubbins like...

Looked impressive from the outside, but then you go inside and its just an identikit 4 stands round the pitch jobbie. Gaps in the corners, it doesn't look joined up. Nothing groundbreaking. Its basically the Britannia. Still, at least you probably won't have to get a tetanus jab before...
