I think we have 4 quality players (Rooney, Klassen, Sigurdsson and Davies) who will play behind the strikers (one of DCL, Sandro or potentially a new striker) in a 4-2-3-1 system. I think that this will be our standard set up, and if we need a bit more width, we can bring in Mirralas and...

It seems to me like the stadium design will need to be compromised due to the need for a commonwealth games track. In an ideal world we wouldn't need to facilitate an athletics track, and instead have a stadium purpose built for the needs of our club. Hovever, given that this is not going to be...

It looks to me like the first tier is arced, starting shallow and ending pretty steep. Would be an interesting solution to the problem of fitting an athletic track in. Very difficult to tell though

Yeah there is no way people would be happy with a smaller version of Wembley would they? Doesn't really fit the brief. If Dan Meis does manage to make a truly intimate multipurpose stadium it is going to have to be something completely unique, which would be amazing to be fair

I put this on the other thread, but i think it is relevant here: Basically, an athletic track will eat into each end of a hypothetical football stadium by a minimum of 34.57m. That means if we want straight stands (as apposed to a bowl) with the seating at the maximum permitted steepness (35...

We know quite a bit though. We know that it will be a multi-purpose stadium. People have a right to be sceptical because there is no precedent for decent, intimate multi-purpose stadia as far as I am aware. I just don't see how the two are compatible.

Are there any examples of a decent intimate football stadium which can be converted to an athletics stadium? The etched doesn't count as it was an athletics stadium first.

Right, I've done some sums. Basically, an athletic track will eat into each end of a hypothetical football stadium by a minimum of 34.57m. That means if we want straight stands (as appears to a bowl) with the seating at the maximum permitted steepness (35 degrees), the track would need to be...

I think he will stay. He would've said if he was going to reject the contract (like Rom). Just holding on for more money. I really don't understand those slating him, and those saying they are not bothered if he leaves. Its like he has a couple of ineffectual games and he is suddenly brandished...

Does dcl know his left from right yet?

Hi, have you Still got tickets?

Why do you think this would be a bad move?

That we can attract world class players. Ok he had a bit of a bad season last year, but that was in a team that is fundamentally broken. Not even Pogba, the most expensive player ever, looks good in that team. Prior to last season, Schweinsteiger was one of the best midfielders in the world...

Bastian Schweinsteiger? Brilliant footballer, still only 32, available and would make a big statement of intent. Attitude and fitness would be a concern but I would absolutely love him at the club. Plus, Ana Ivanovic
