Stamford Bridge Thread

[Laylabelle 9,459]

The whole standing only creates atmosphere really should be bollocks.People should be capable off creating a atmosphere even if sat down.Not everyone likes to stand and their choice but still should be able to create something

Be surprised if prices come down a lot.if 60,000 odd willing to pay 50 odd quid then why change it.

Put the loudest supporters into the shed end lower, move the away fans to a corner of the Matthew Harding Stand and either west or east stand. Put family tickets into the rest of the Matthew Harding Stand. Tourists in the East Stand and the corporate and rich in the West Stand.

Yokohama Arena!?

[Unionjack 7,531]

I spent last night having a beer with a couple of the old Shed End Boys and I know its probably very un PC for me to say this but god I wish I was around to follow us in the 60s/70s/80s. My uncle was an old Head from the early 70s and travelled on the old coachs/trains and he spent years telling me of all their old exploits. It may sound very basic to some but spending a night in a bar with Babs,Hicky,Mickey G and the rest of them might not be everyones idea of a good night out but theyre all (or the ones who are still with us) good lads and part of the clubs history. Like it or not. And you get to hear the bits that dont make the books.

Hi. I have updated my render and I think this is about finished. I have fixed the scales of the players on the pitch. adjusted the lighting and re-textured the people in the stands. I have also re-worked the model for the middle tier. I changed the corporate hospitality boxes so that it is not a separate tier, like at arsenal, but is incorporated directly into the middle tier. I think this is more likely.

Fantastic render mate.

Good god can you imagine being an opposition player walking out onto that pitch on a Champion's League game night? So so intimidating.

Also, I know they're louder than our support but the roof reminds me of the Millenium Stadium on Welsh Rugby matches i've been to and holy shit is it loud. Would really get a good echo for the noise going and make it even louder when the crowd gets behind the players during big games.

I havent seen any ideas what we will do for screens so Im guessing they will be suspended from the inner roof circle like this

Frankfurt

Warsaw

I like the idea of a 360 one

I for one hate that concept. If I was a football player I would always play with the fear that those big TV's would fall on me

It's a bit of a piss take but fuck it, I just think of how far we have come since the Bobby Campbell days and all is forgiven lol.

It's easy to forget when we are playing shit and I go back into 89 - 90s teenage mode and life is over because we have lost, a regular occurrence hahahahahahah .

Standing in the shed freezing hands on the fences watching the ball slip between Daves legs lol.

So let them have their bit of fortune we are so lucky to be in west London.

Just wish when we lose everyone not to have a melt down and just take a breath step back and think what if we didn't sign Gullit what if Roman ( can't say it lol. west London baby) although being surrounded by Manu when young could see we was going places without Roman just not as quick.

So fuck them let's worry about

ut ourselves.

Probably best to ignore this half way though a bottle of Woodford reserve KTBFFH.

And I'm with you all the way. I just find it more difficult to take it tho.

Im a soft git tho cause I dont mind freezing me yarbles off on a cold monday night in Stoke (sneaking in a flask and a mobile vaporizor soon warms you up), getting a shower of beer at half time, taking the piss out of the local residents wherever we go. And like you I couldnt be more grateful for Uncle Roman tho Id love to have been there in our basic days.

But to think the govt can bale out the Irons when we cant even get land to build on with no help pisses me right off.

I have not read it so I hope I'm not getting hold of the wrong end of the stick here, but...

I think any Chelsea fan who signs a petition against West Ham's stadium costs, on footballing grounds, would be a disgrace. Yes they're getting a ridiculously good deal so, yes, they've been lucky but who'd swap them a cheap stadium for Roman? We've had our own huge slice of luck and the only dignified response from us would be to congratulate the Hammers on their good fortune.

Now, if people are unhappy because no business with the kind of turnover enjoyed by Premier League clubs should be getting hand outs from taxpayers that's a different story but, if people are complaining because this move gives West Ham and unfair advantage then, Chelsea fans at least should have absolutely nothing to say about it.

Chelsea close to Wembley deal for 3 years of home matches during Stamford Bridge revamp

Get ready for a shit atmosphere. I doubt the capacity will be sold out and half empty stadiums don't sounds that great.

Acoustics at Wembley are shocking when it's full, never mind when the top tiers closed.
