Sure I've seen photos of them mind! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken Dancer Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 It is a shame there isn't a realistic option to play at for a few years if there were to completely rebuild on the current site. Pop-up stadiums etc are pipe dreams, unless they could somehow expand the International Stadium to house at least 30k as a short (ish) term measure.

I’d say the closest alternative that isn’t Sunderland is probably Darlington Mowden Park? Maybe Boro would let us too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you can easily get the train to Darlo but would need some form of system in place like the derby back in Jan or obviously more trains. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEEJ Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Hated Wembley both times I've been in there. Compared to something like the San Mamés, it's awful. Way too flat in the stands in both senses of the word. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

timeEd32 Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 106 miles was always ridiculous and scaling back a $1.5T project is much different than a few hundred million to £1B project, but it is another example of some possible PIF issues as @TheBrownBottle has mentioned before.
