Stamford Bridge Thread

[termninja 5,290]

This is how stadium would look... Official website is the source:

I like it, though it would look even better if the space between the stands (around the corners) wasn't so big. It would look something like Dortmund's stadium all in blue with awesome chimneys on top but perhaps it's impossible to do due to limitations by the power station itself.

I'm still hoping we can hijack the deal and finally sort out our stadium future. BPW is the best bet we have since it's not far away and it would actually look rather unique and iconic.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Technically speaking, it hasn't sailed just yet. The preferred bidders (Malaysian property investors) had a period of around 4 weeks to finalise their plans/submit them from the date they were announced as winners of the site. There is a chance that even though they are the preferred investors for the site, their plans may not actually be financially viable. This is unlikely, as they have been investigating the site for a substantial period of time as far as I know, but not impossible.

There was also talk of Chelsea and the Malaysians entering a partnership for the site a week or so ago.

Hope that happens. Battersea would be perfect. The Stadium looks fantastic in those new pictures.

I think it looks incredible

reminds me of Ibrox a bit. We could form a partnership with the Malaysians and they could have an underground shopping centre on the site

Wouldn't be very big!! Trying to avoid sewage pipes and the new underground would be a nightmare. Also it's incredibly close to the Thames so can't have it too close to there really.

we don't tell them that though. We let them build it, get flooded and keep the stadium having paid only half what it would have to build it

If they are posting sketches of the sire on the official website, there must be something going on behind the scenes...optimism 101

It's also to show to the people owning the BPS that the club has really great plans for it.

I mean, richass European Champions want to buy your land to build one of the most iconic stadiums in the world. You don't throw their offer through the window just like that and accept some Malaysian investors...

Grandiose, Mind blowing images, this will be one of the most iconic stadiums in world football.

Precisely, if there was no hope for the bid the images would have never been released.

Bigger images:

In the 2nd picture, there looks like there's neon on the roof. It would be awesome if we had blue neon at night. It would be even more awesome if the Battersea towers lit up blue at night.

[Slam Dunk 1,442]

The renders are amazing. The single tier stand looks like it would be incredible as well. Fingers crossed for positive news.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

That does look awesome, but let's not get ahead of ourselves, the odds of this happening are still next to impossible at this stage.

[We Hate Scouse 10,286]

The pitch looks like it would be far from the stand, unlike now.

Absolutely hate that in stadiums. Although I guess it needs to be done to avoid capacity being dropped during UCL matches.

If the odds were 'impossible', why would they release the images on the official site, thus.. getting the fans exited & hopeful, PR disaster.

Okay, "Next to impossible" is an exaggeration, but we have been out-bidden, can't see our chances being good at all tbh.

Those images look good.

In this one theyve a tribute to Fat Frank
