yuvala 2,167 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 See , I don't get this....When i go to a football match...I'm there to watch the FOOTBALL! not getting at you buddy , just seems in general some people just go to sing etc and must miss half the match!and The MH upper still has a decent atmosphere , but you will get a cracking view! West Upper is defo best view ..about half way up !Well I was at the east upper, and let me tell you.. it really ruins it when you and 2 maybe 3 more people are the only people cheering and yelling when we score.Would have been a much better experience if I sat at the MH or Shed atleast.

I don't see the point in forking out 50 quid to sit down in silence and watch the match when I can do that in the comfort of my own house on TV with better views etc. I'd rather be part of the action.

AndersonBLUE 819 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 If you go to MHL at the back rows you are restricted by the overhang, row JJ you can just about see the crossbar at the other end. But a lot of people like to stand up so you are ducking quite a bit of the game. However the singing is all game long. If you wanted a bit more of a view the rows further down MHL is better. Or go to Mathew Harding Upper, less noise but better view, you can see out the whole stadium which I like with a few good bouts of singing.

Each to their own I suppose.Agree which is why so glad that only paid £35ish for the last group game.Crap atmosphere literally the only think worth watching and got the crowd going was the linesmen kicking his legs about lol.Bit bizzare.I'd rather be part of the atmosphere but there aint any at the moment it seems.

laeth 527 Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 There doesn't appear to be a solution to our stadium problem, does there?How do we compete when we make almost £50 million a year less in match day revenue than Man Utd? Other clubs are going to continue to expand their grounds and increase their revenue, while we are unable too.Hmm... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndersonBLUE 819 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Battersea ruled out for good now most likely now that the Malaysians have begun work on the station. Probs won't hear anything on a new stadium until a new council is elected in May and negotiations re-start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelseanw10 8 Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 We need to find a site...and fast. Spurs, and west ham will have bigger stadiums then us before long, qpr will almost equal us, it could be embarrassing.Only site left I can think of is white city , either the unigate site or linford christie stadium/scrubs. With qpr fucking off to Kensal Green/ ooc, I'd be happy with white city ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Barrett 0 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 I'd be proud to stay where we are! I'd rather stay at the bridge! There's nothing wrong with moving. The club is not what it used to be and we need to evolve with the changing times(and stature). Do you really see us staying at the Bridge for another 20 years? Do you see that as what's best in terms of progress? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelseanw10 8 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Problem is our only options are looking like white city and north kensington(gasworks).White city I'd be happy enough with, but even happier with north ken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelseanw10 8 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Latest talk on twitter, is the Kensington gasworks/sainsburys site in north Kensington.I know the locals are still pushing for a crossrail station there, an idea that Boris also promotes.To be at the heart of a regeneration of a 67acre site in Kensington and CHELSEA, with a W postcode me, within spitting distance of portobello and in an area with a strong chelsea following...I'd take that.

Blue Armour 4,448 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Having a bigger stadium helps of course, but these days...how much do ticket sales really help with the club's revenue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ticket and TV revenues are by far the biggest source of money modern clubs have!Just look at RM, Barcelona. ManUtd, Arsenal, Bayern, etc...

zolayes 14,489 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 I loved going to the Bridge ,,especially in its present form .. BUT I would LOVE to see us i a 60 -70000 stadium not too far away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManUtd, Arsenal, Bayern, etc...That was my impression as well, but I have heard a few people say otherwise... Especially when it comes to clubs that have a large global appeal, and can make revenue through a lot more avenues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
