topcat(The most tip top) Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 "Where the stadium literally sits in the city can make or break a ground"A more direct link to the same article:https://mundialmag.com/blogs/gazzetta/london-stadium-wembley-tottenham-hotspur-new-stadium-west-ham-united-champions-league-2019As well as the importance of location it makes some interesting points about the challenge of creating a sense of continuity and tradition in a new stadium (Spoiler Arsenal did it well, West Ham didn’t) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be fun when we get the 100+ buses and an extra 6000 cars. Should be fun getting home. Move then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t seen anyone “rejoicing”, as you put it (you obviously don’t think he should be around the club next season), but a lot of fans see it as a sensible re-signing as a squad player, as a minimum. If you don’t rate him as a player, fair enough, everyone is entitled to their opinion. However, in my opinion, he has done as good a job for us this season as anyone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzza81 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Considine has been one of the best centre backs in the league this season. Not sure what point yon lad is trying to make? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe me, I am not in the slightest bit jealous. I feel for city-based Aberdeen fans who are having their club moved from their spiritual home of 100+ years. I don't feel for the country bumpkin Tories who are cheering this all the way so their "commute" to the ground can be 15 minutes quicker. Can't wait to revisit this thread 5 years into Kingsford. It will be a fucking disaster. I'm not a tory ye p***k 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an oblongabout, the line of sight coming off the AWPR and looking east to see if you can exit is more than enough, just shite driving is the issue. Folk fae Westhill, fit div ye expect, they don;t even know what the inside lane is for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good stuff, can you clarify why this is in the stadium thread? There will be total and utter gridlock once the Wiggy Dome is complete, people won't even be able to get to the cinema, so the "dangerous roundabout" will be moot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
