Reading the facilities etc page the stadium seems a bit of an after thought along side everything else.

[Mr Brooks]

Have the plans for the ground been revised - or does Uncle Barrie have inside info that Southampton will get promoted. Let me know and I'll get some money on!

I don`t think we should be comparing our ground and our resources to a premiership ground that hosts a league 1 football team. I think we`re in a far superior position off the field than the sad saints, our grounds gonna be a luxurious palace compared to most of the grounds we`ll be visiting next season, we`ll probably be the snobs of league 1 lol.

Not a patch on the B2net in my opinion.

You said best stadium in league 1!!

In no particular order, off the top of my head:

MK Dons
Southampton
Huddersfield
Leeds
Charlton
Norwich
Colchester

and possibly by then:

Reading
Barsnley (3/4 ground)
Ipswich
Notts County

The artist's impression on the Morecambe front page is interesting, in that the scale suggests that the stand will be about eight stories high. Either that, or the stand is reserved exclusively for the use of Ken Dodd's Diddymen. Given that the capacity is only 6,000 (and imagine the furore if we'd have done that!) I think rather more artistic licence has been used in the production of their "What it could be like" models than ours. Theirs is going to be that same capacity as Chester's, so is unlikely to be no more imposing than the Deva.

Does any1 know if there was a video fly through of what our ground will supposedly look like? and if so where i can view it?

[Blueprint]

is the car park bigger at their stadium or something, just can't work out why that's far superior to ours Doesn't look better than ours, but then theirs is nearly half the size of ours so they can possibly spend more money on things that make it look nicer. The floodlights are nothing special though.

I think the OP thinks that a social club = better facilities, conviniently forgetting everything else thats going into the build. If you compare the 2 grounds I think it shows where the clubs have come from and where they are likely to end up.

Better facilities?

Well a training pitch and social club, but only facilities in one stand.

We will have the community stuff,including a GP in the other stand, have 4000 more capacity, and concourses serving drinks etc while they have solid terrace.

Thier ground will be like chesters Deva ours will be more like shrewsbury with 2 stands having extra stuff.
