Can’t wait to see half of them covered in holes, the other half smelling like Vader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nike haven't backed out have they? Last I saw was them confirming that they wouldn't.  Anyway, I came here to post that Kai Havertz' deadpan serious suggestions that his justification for elbowing Dan Burn in the head is because Burn is "7...8 foot tall" (and therefore he had to jump extra high which involves using your arms) is Hogan level brilliance.

Paid Members PunkStep Posted March 13, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted March 13, 2022 How on earth did Real Madrid agree to sell Odegaard for £30m. Almost as bad as us when it comes to offloading players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 My sources tell me they’re considering a more green approach by rebuilding it in Surrey so fans have less distance to travel for home games.  Isnt the South Stand the problem. They can’t expand it due to the houses. You don’t want it looking like Lansdowne Road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Houchen Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I hope they don’t relocate. There is something heartwarming about the biggest club in the country having their ground surrounded by terraced housing. Hopefully it won’t be another soulless identikit stadium on the edge of the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don’t want it looking like Lansdowne Road. The biggest issue is the railway line which runs parallel with the current boundary of the South Stand. It would cost a fortune to put foundations around the track and work would only be able to be carried out when the line isn't active so it would take years to complete.

Paid Members waters44 Posted March 15, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted March 15, 2022 (edited) I used to follow Reading away occasionally and the one ground that sticks out for me was QPR which is literally in the middle of a housing estate, and the walkway to the away stand is between two houses  It seemed odd to me as I was used to the Madejski, which isn’t close to anything, but I guess most city clubs have a similar set up to QPR Edited March 15, 2022 by waters44 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenryck Pilchards Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 That's nothing, at Kenilworth Road you have to go through a terraced house! Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Factotum Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 The weirdest ground is Leyton Orient where you can see into someones front room while watching a corner being taken as there's actual flats basically in the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Carbomb Posted March 15, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted March 15, 2022 I remember as a kid going to Loftus Road, and being struck the oddness of a football stadium's entrance being nestled amongst houses. Fairly sure Highbury had something similar, though not quite as tucked away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
