Tonights UEFA Cup final venue...

...What a fantastic example of how a 50k+ stadium should be designed, two tiered with steep stands leaving even the highest seating areas close to the action.

If we have to move to a new stadium, I hope it runs along these lines.

I wouldn't be to keen on moving to a stadium that could run along lines.

No - the latest ideas are that the PITCH runs along lines. You grow it outside the ground, then wheel it ALONG LINES back into the stadium. ;D

And the stadium of Vitesse Arnhem in the Netherlands (which was the first one with a moving pitch!)

shame it holds nearly 60000

Or Birmingham's pitch at St Andrew's...




Oh no I'm wrong, that didn't move, it just disappears half way through each season and is replaced by a ploughed field! ;D

If you count 50,500 as nearly 60k that's true!

I agree this looks a pretty good stadium..

Shut up about running along lines, we can run all the way to the away end with a stadium like this

 

[Annesley Red]

if we get a new stadium it will be built for mainly business purposes by the people who put up the money. Thye will want a big return by making conference centres, hotels etc.
Secondly the sports area will be used for as much as they could cram into the calender- expect show jumping, rugby, pop concerts and more

I say extend the Main stand and stay at the City ground not making Nottingham Forest play at the Doughty Umbro Stadium

Wouldn't you get very wet in the high seats with the rain driving through that gap!
