Chelseanw10 8 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 We're really lagging behindhttp://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/28275495Yep.When Qpr get their new ground we'll barely have the biggest stadium in west London.If their is a way of expanding the Bridge then let's do it, although personally I believe their is zero chance of that happening.

laeth 527 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 The club must see how imperative it is we expand, so I'm sure they will be working on something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDN Blue 7,903 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 The club must see how imperative it is we expand, so I'm sure they will be working on something.of course they do, that was shown by the effort to buy back SB from the CPO. it's a shame we fell through with Battersea, considering that's being converted into a shit hole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liquidator 5,176 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Becoming the first club in the league to use LED floodlights. Whole new floodlight system installed for this season including some ugly looking ones hanging from the Shed and Matthew Harding ends.

The Chels 2,502 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 One thing that really annoys me about the Stamford Bridge pitch is how the managers' technical areas are not equidistant from the halfway line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liquidator 5,176 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 New pitch coming along okay?Yep looks very good. Just needs markings put on I thinkEDIT: There has apparently been lots of high-vis jackets and suits around Stamford Bridge recently paying a lot of attention to the East Stand, the railway behind it and the other side of the railway embankment where Brompton Cemetery is. Potentially looking at a bridge into the cemetery to ease congestion which would allow expansion? Madmax and The only place to be 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post! middleoftheshed 388 Posted August 6, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted August 6, 2014 One thing that really annoys me about the Stamford Bridge pitch is how the managers' technical areas are not equidistant from the halfway line.If you watch old footage of when the ground was a bowl with just the east stand you can see the tunnel was right on the halfway line, the pitch was moved over a bit when the old shed and north stands were knocked down. I like these little quirks, reminds you of how things got where they are today.

zolayes 14,489 Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 pull down the stands and bring back the terraces .. that would get capacity up ... just keep the hospitality boxes but treble their cost /charge away fans double home fans .. Charge Manure and Gooners 5 times more .. Dont allow ANY scousers in // Ljpaddock and nachikethas 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
