I still thought the club were looking into the Battersea and EC possibilities. Last I heard there was a rumour Roman was looking into purchasing CapCo.

There are plenty of issues regarding the development of the Bridge. Long-term it doesn't look promising.

Personally I saw battersea as a no-no.i'd have earls court,w10 gasworks,and even white city all before battersea.whatever we do we must stay in west london!

I loved the idea of BPS. It could've been a truly iconic location for a new ground but unfortunately it's BPS - if anything ever gets built there I'll be surprised.

Earls Court is a nice back-up so long as we don't go the Arsenal route of building a boring, cookie-cutter route.

Battersea power station was a big blow. As it was a great site, extremely accessable and was in a great location. Especially for where i live. :) It would be great to keep it in the same place but we do need to increase capacity, unless we are bringing back standing then we can get a lot more people in.

So Harrow is now on the list of sites? Jesus Christ that's further away than Wembley, not too much further and you end up looking outside Greater London.

Old Oak Common would also be shite- proper QPR territory.

Kensal again is a bit too close to QPR for my liking

Unigate Site- Im having a look at the sites you have listed but then we come to this and surely moving here would just be taking the piss? It is literally 500m from Loftus Road!

Linford Christie Stadium- Basically Old Oak Common

I still think Earl's Court should be our priority if we don't get Battersea. It already has good transport links, would probably be easier to deal with because Hammersmith and Fulham Council are involved in the regeneration of the area. It would mean we wouldn't have to move too far and the area around Earls Court feels similar to that of Stamford Bridge

Problem is Utd are getting 75k crowds, we get 42k :(

They are making so much more on the 19 home fixtures - bastards :)

London is the problem, no space anywhere :(

I vote we build a stadium on legs in the sky :) then we really will need a bridge to get to it :)

I'm thinking something along the lines of cloud base from Captain Scarlet
