Stamford Bridge Thread

[Justin_3d 1,140]

I never said that. What I meant was:

Fuck modernization. We are Chelsea Football Club and we would not exist as an entity without Stamford Bridge. And we won't in the future. The CPO will invariably vote 'no' and we'll end up being the Battersea Football Club.

The same can be said about other clubs as well.

Giants and Jets moving to a new stadium.

Mets new Shitty Field.

Nets moving to Brooklyn, Holla!!

Again delusional fools like you think that Chelsea is a wonder club, that is better then any club and should not move because of "HISTORY"

we were founded as a club to fill Stamford Bridge, not the other way round.

Personal abuse? Brilliant.

This isn't about being better than anyone. It's about sticking up for what we are and not letting plebs like Gourlay wreak havoc. It's about our very identity. We won't be Chelsea F.C. anymore.

Would rep. But I'm over the limit. Anyway, Chapeau, sir :tophat:

So the hell what?

Chelsea needs to grow. Other clubs done that as well.

If Chelsea don't do that, then some of the fans are as worse as Liverpool fans who think they are all that, and better then any club for their "History"

It is somewhat ironic that sections of fans are against modernization, yet we are amongst the most modern clubs in world football.

Having said that, this 'initial' stage will be followed by acceptance, the move is inevitable.. embrace it.

[capriccioso 2,545]

It's not about being better, it's about retaining the vestiges of our pre-Romanic past.

What are we going to do with Peter Osgood's ashes? Exhume him? Or build an apartment block on him? Either option is a violation of him.

I agree, in time people will accept it, if we want to move forward as a club, we will need a new stadium.

Also, i wanted to bring up our earlier discussion, as i said the two sets of Chimneys wont be either side of the pitch, and i think TIWATZ confirmed this, it's only going to be a backdrop, so maybe behind one side.

“Working with architects and planning experts, we have developed a plan to preserve all the significant aspects of Battersea Power Station. The four iconic chimneys and wash towers along with the Grade Two listed west turbine hall and control room will be restored and retained in their original locations and provide a unique architectural backdrop to a world-class stadium.”

Im not against it I just think that justin is being very disrespectful because he is in essence saying that we should just tear Stamford Bridge up as soon as possible and show no respect for our past

Yankees will be a bigger club then Chelsea will ever dream to be. And you think you are better then such a club?

If big clubs move so shall a club trying to grow!

Baseball...zzzzz.

have to admit, the sketches of stadium inside the station look much better. If it were a backdrop, then one side of the stadium would look empty, while the other looks intimidating. I like the idea of using the chimneys as corner flags

If we do get it, then how about a name with "station" in it? Chelsea Station, Station Bridge or smth..

Baseball...zzzzz.

Soccer...zzzzz.
