Guest HTT II Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 My boy has just had his team’s presentation there and the difference from 4 years ago is massive, a proper bar, hot food, new carpets, new tables, a lick of paint, proper TV screens, more staff, decent entertainment, a big welcome and just an all round classy morning/afternoon. The last time we had one the carpets were stained, the tables were falling apart, half the very small TVs didn’t work or were hanging off the wall, no food, bottled water come out of a pack, no card machines, just a shit show. Massive thumbs up to the new owners! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How's that work then? Maybe it would depend on what Leazes Terrace is used for, if it was no longer residential maybe the restrictions on light changes?

Massive thumbs up to the new owners! My graft had our Christmas party there and I thought the same. Was very nice inside where the corporate areas are. Mind you, I think the renovation happened under Fat Mike. Irrelevant really but I hope we renovate the tunnel area, think it looks tacky when the players are coming out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wandy Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 (edited) I know it now seems unlikely, but if we do relocate down to the Arena site then the renovated Bernabeu would be the template for the kind of design we should be looking to have. Dear Lord, what a stadium that is going to be when finished. It will make Spurs’ stadium look like the Stadium of Shite.

Looks unbelievable, I’ve heard they are getting some ridiculous sponsorship package as well to some huge American company as well to rent it out ? £400 million a year or something for 20 years ? https://amp.marca.com/en/football/real-madrid/2022/01/27/61f2f135e2704e87888b45cc.html Edited May 29, 2022 by JonBez comesock Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not gonna lie, if they announced that they wanted to build a Bernabeu replica somewhere on the edge of town I would be all over it. SJP sentimentality would go straight out of the window.

Ben Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 That looks amazing and if our owners have plans to mix in the same circles as the likes of Madrid then we really need to move, some of the new stadiums in the US look futuristic and superb as well.

NEEJ Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 The pitch being hidden below deck seems like a disaster waiting to happen, like. Looking forward to hearing about the inevitable postponement when the mechanism fails and they're stuck with half 3G and half turf on separate levels.

Kanj Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 That technology to maintain and save the pitch whilst having the stadium essentially become an expo/event space, tennis, volleyball, basketball, NFL, concerts - truly sensational bit of engineering tbh. I’m absolutely shook by that video @Wandy thanks for sharing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dear Lord, what a stadium that is going to be when finished. It will make Spurs’ stadium look like the Stadium of Shite. That's very impressive. I'm assuming they've worked it out but how do the strips of turf join together in a way that creates a consistent surface? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 (edited) Most of it is synthetic and weaved, so it won't make much difference anyway once the tractor has been over it. I'm more interested in how they maintain the pitch when it's underground, I guess they have similar lamps to what most grounds have now anyway.

Miggys First Goal Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Honestly, if we were going to get a stadium like that, I’d be happy to move away from SJP. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Spaceman Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Nah, I'd be devastated if we moved away from SJP any time soon. The location is far too iconic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
