Finally some good news.

yup.....hopefully it will go through with no objections in January.

Ongoing process with minor changes and finer details.

Hopefully start work with the stuff over the railtracks next summer and we move out season 2017.

We'll have one of the most unique stadiums in the world if all goes to plan

its a matter of taste, but I like the fact we are going for London brick and not a bowl made out of concrete, metal and glass

They have gone for a timeless look, and if you really think about it.. a modern bowl would look so out of place next to the brick work around that area as it is. Anyone who has actually been to the bridge will understand how even the current stadium looks a bit out of place.

This design makes it look like a football cathedral!

It looks the part I wonder if we will sell the name rights to the new stadium??

[Term-X 7,891]

Looks like it needs a splash of yellow on the seats inside though..

The Gazprom Cathedral at Stamford Bridge ;-)

Gazprom is a big company £100m a year would be a nice income a year

[Laylabelle 9,292]

Hmmmm does look a bit ugly haaha.Sure look nicer in real life.

What are the chances a council, the CPO or any other outside force thwarts the clubs plans?

Is it safe to celebrate yet or??

Don't want to be let down like I was at the Battersea Power Stadium plans

[Laylabelle 9,292]

Assume safer as it's in the same place and no bidding going on like battersea

We were never seriously in contention for Battersea.

I would Increase the pitch size at the expense of a few thousand seats.

[Rmpr 8,977]

I hate the round then rectangle "opening". I would have gone for the round opening instead of having the bricks falling and ending in a rectangular opening...If anyone understood what I meant that is!

Besides that I dont think it looks bad. Abd honestly, it doesn't really matter. As long as the stadium has a great capacity, comfortable facilities and boost up our revenue, thats what really matters.
