Other Club Stadium Developments

What does he gain from not having tenants?

Surely it's not a good thing, if he isn't receiving an income?

He'll invent Coventry united. Move some money around, start at the base of the football league and have a club going with a support, home, sponsors etc, be a going concern and receiving league money. Then he'll sell again. He's pretty much just another fat knobhead like ken bates.

Yeah especially since WASPS folded, it'd be empty quite often.

Didn't realise Wasps had folded until reading your post. Was a daft decision of them to relocate there from London

Málaga have confirmed they will move out of La Rosaleda for the 2026/27, ahead of redevelopment for the 2030 World Cup.

But devastated, current ground has lotd and lots of memories for me.

Ground will go from 30,500 to 45,000.

Wow, it may be the camera angle but those upper end stands at La Rosaleda look extremely steep. The impression given of the rake must be 45 degrees plus

Not so bad, definitely the camera angle.

Then again, I do not think for a second that anything will be as steeps as South Stand at the new ground, or The Mestalla.

How come Coventry want a new ground? Their current stadium must be only 20 or so years old

It's not theirs.
Is the simple answer

Bournemouth have a new training centre.
Looks nice.
Still got a temporary stand tho.

Surprised Brian Cox is a Dundee fan; I thought all the Catholic Dundonians supported United.

That was stopped when the Arabs started wearing orange.

Arguably Dundee is more Dee.

Dundee His bought off?

 

[Jacko93]

Honestly mate no idea, it's Mike Ashley.

He probably wants to negotiate the deal to get more rent - Coventry signed the last agreement a year before he bought it or something and it's likely on favourable terms as they have been long-term tenants.

He also evicted everyone else using it I think. Maybe he's not doing it for a profit, maybe he's just literal scum.

I mean, hes not the first landlord to do this is he??? Maybe he thinks he can start his own football team there..

Looks a nice ground. It would be great if some of the other Scottish clubs could become more competitive.

Aston Villa announce plans to increase Villa Park capacity to over 50,000

Back on again, but risky given the time frame. They should be able to get it ready in time for Euro 28, but if they get a situation like Fulham/RS then it could still be a building site.

See Leeds are looking to expand to 56,500

Expansion of Leeds United's Elland Road stadium backed by councillors

The plan would make Leeds United's home England's seventh-biggest football stadium, the city council says.

www.bbc.co.uk

The club's return to the Premier League was secured on Easter Monday, with the side hoping to increase the ground's capacity from 37,645 to about 56,500.

They were initially talking about increasing to 53,000 but think in a phased way, so it wasn't going to be 50K+ straight away.

Unlike Villa, I think Leeds are taking a bit of a risk looking to expand to such a large number before ensuring PL stability. They have shown in the past that their fanbase falls away when they go through a prolonged period of tougher times. Also think Leeds as a club charge their fans high prices so that will also have an impact if they are down in the Championship for a few seasons back to back.
