Hope it gets refused. Cunts.

 

Never seen that for a long while, spite!! Good old fashioned spite, the day before Christmas as well, glorious.

Must've bought, or be going to buy, a lot of the property around the stadium. Provided the steepness doesn't change, and I can't see that it will, making it a proper 4 sided ground won't be too bad.

Sound like a load of old fashioned losers tbh, don't they know football fans are supposed to sit as quietly as possible while moaning and groaning before a loud boo crescendo at the end? Bet they pay to go in as well, idiots

Weird they wouldn’t use Moshiri’s company as a placeholder in the first instance.

 

Yeah, weird. I thought it was essential to give away massive commercial real estate for nothing in order to prove how lucrative global exposure can be?

Remaining where we are is essential, I’m sure or hopeful new owners will realise the enormous ramifications of doing so for club, fans and the city, and hopefully the local council and planning department too...

 

A new stadium await from the City Centre would cost the same away from SJP as redeveloping the current site, whether that means knocking it all down and starting again even.

 

Extra capacity can be achieved with the current site and would cost less than a whole new stadium and end up more profitable long-term remaining gang smack in the city centre. I wouldn’t want to compromise the stadium history, location and landmark iconography which is global and over a few sports not even for an extra 20k seats or so we have some super stadium, if that can be done with the current site, at any cost, then so be it. I guarantee it can though and all we really need max is 70k.

Yup. I have said it before. Stavely and the brothers plus even Rafa would have been saying that the stadium location itself is a major reason to purchase the club, invest in the city and also keep the stadium there. They would be clever enough to realise that moving the staduum away from the current location would be a major loss of revenue for the city.

 

All they needed was the Saudi backing and expertise and now they have it, I'm confident we will see the stadium redeveloped and become something that we might not have imagined before.

Coventry City have announced a deal that will see the University of Warwick provide land to the football club with a vision of building the club a new stadium.

 

The Sky Blues spent the 2019-20 season in Birmingham, playing their home matches at St Andrew's after failing to strike a deal with Ricoh Arena owners Wasps Group.

 

 

The club are currently in negotiations to return to the stadium for next season, but do have an option to remain in Birmingham should they wish.

 

But they have today confirmed an agreement with the University of Warwick that will see them acquire land, south of the city, and say that they will soon provide supporters with detailed plans for an environmentally-friendly stadium.

 

The development will allow the Sky Blues to finally own their own stadium and, in doing so, pocket full matchday revenue from games.

 

It is thought that the plan, that could take five years, will see a stadium with a capacity of around 20,000 built, potentially rising to 35,000 if required.
