Chelsea? 892 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 What I've been told is we will definitely be moving and that Battersea is the most likely destination.oh ok, so what's the time frame for all this? also, could Chelsea possible build bigger than 60,000 stadium? If bathersea is not in the "rich" part of london, hopefully that means our games will be louder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ulsterchelsea 3,221 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 The cpo said that the figures are incorrect?i think that now they are convinced. no, the CPO basically said that whilst they, like most of us, wanted to remain at the bridge it seemed that the facts and figures Chels had provided had put an end to that but that they would still like to speak to the council for themselves to 'double check' so to speak.

Liquidator 5,176 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Stamford Bridge isn't actually in Chelsea ... is Battersea?Its to the south/south east of Chelsea on the other side of the river but unlike Stamford Bridge it is within the Royal borough of Chelsea and Kensington (well where the stadium would be built is).

Kezza 1,965 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Lol, Battersea. "We will dip our opponents in a Sea of Batter and deep fry them".

The Rising Sun 711 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 hey everyone, i might be wrong, and please correct me if i am....expanding stamford bridge means a 10-20000 seat expansion , and since the seating will not be horizontal enough, expanding would mean going more vertical upwards which will not make viewing as good, therefore the ticket prices for the upper seats will not be able to be priced high.... that means the money spent on building will take forever to be recovered as revenue from that extra seating will not be enough....with FFP coming in, that expense will probably mean we have much less or nothing{?} to spend....i am in the real estate business in india, and i cant specifically recall, but i discussed with a colleague who is a epl fan, that in london/england, there are laws regulating how a building renovation/ new building/stadium construction affects properties around it, such as sunlight blocking, traffic volumes, road capacities around the stadiums etc....even though it is possible for chelsea to build on stamford bridge, if city councils allow it, firstly the surrounding vicinity owners have to give a no objection certificate and will have to be paid,legally, hefty amounts to them for such a move.on the other hand, if we build a new stadium, it will cost a whole lot, and even though arsenal have not spent much since the emirates, the FFP were not applicable then. Their loss of quality due to less money does show. they create stars and then they leave.If we build a new stadium, that means we have a long time to recover costs, and FFP wont allow roman ro bankroll as it has been.So is it not a loss-loss both ways?however if we do move, since the CPO presently dont want to sell, the club should calculate stadium costs, and based on that if a Pitch owner has 10 shares now, not to reduce their investment, but since only chelsea/roman will be investing, take that into account and instead of 10 shares, that person will have maybe 3-4 shares, since that person has made no further investment in the new stadium and new pitch.
