It would probably require a road re-route to counter encroachment onto the current road, but it’s been done before somewhat… You want another tier above Level 7? Really? You already almost need binoculars at the top of L7. Anything higher than that and you'll need the James Webb Telescope. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be class if we could at least have a matching gallowgate end like, but maybe a full height single tier! Sounds class in my head Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedro111 Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 Yeah sounds good. Level 8 and 9. Tickets for a quid. I'd take the whole family. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedro111 Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 Flatten the East stand, build a new bigger, steeper East stand in same footprint. Bolt five gigantic heat lamps to the back to solve Leazes Terrace sunlight problems, job done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

L7 extended to Gallowgate and a lined-up glass wall on top of whatever East Stand we end up with, so that all sound is kept enclosed within the stadium. and we have a winner!!!!!!

elbee909 Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 Perhaps do a concave mirror system instead of the glass to focus beams of concentrated sunlight into the opponents' eyes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 TBF it is possible to move a building, it's just to expensive, Beamish Museum do it all the time but on a much smaller scale with donated buildings ready for demolition Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montey Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 Just keep in mind that any prospective new stadium (if they had decided they had to go that route to increase capacity, at a different location) could cost around £500+ million (London Stadium cost £486 million, in 2011 money - or £689 million, in 2022 money - according to Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Stadium). If a new stadium would cost ~£500 million, then a sizable budget would likely be available to move some historic buildings to enable the ground to be expanded without the expense of a whole new stadium. For example, £50 million to move the buildings and £200 million to expand and renovate St. James' Park saves then 50% of the cost of a new stadium.
