Blue Colored Sky 1,807 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Haven't seen any news on our proposed expansion for ages... anybody know anything new since Feb?I think only after the season we will get some information.I'm very interesting what data they collected so far. Still think that the move to Earls Court/Lille Bridge will be on the cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thekid9 418 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 If we can expand Stamford bridge, that is the only option for me.It is an absolute fortress! I get absolutely no excitement from any Bowl stadium I have been at! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iggy Doonican 4,186 Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Chelsea away from Stamford Bridge is a no- no for me. First off the new ground would be called something awful like the Vodafone stadium with stands called the Harrods end. Secondly the prices will be eye watering and the only people who will be able to afford them will be middle class tosspots who will just sit and applaud politely if we score. Football used to be like going to a gig all mates singing there heads off and generally fucking about. The atmosphere at some games isn't great and it will be even worse if we get a new stadium it will be like going to the theatre. Chelsea Football Club S.W.6. for 110 years lets keep it that way. nachikethas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CurlyHairLikeLuiz 1,625 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 There's been a lot of meetings over the season. They're definitely willing.I'm assuming that all the stands are going to be completely rebuilt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thekid9 418 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Can't see the West being rebuilt as it's already higher than it's meant to be I think!Think it was the Matt Harding and shed being extended, the hotels and frankies/marcos being demolishedI'm assuming that all the stands are going to be completely rebuilt.

OhForAGreavsie 6,077 Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Well then you must be right about the RFU being interested. Have to say I'm shocked; they know there will be a huge backlash from many Rugby fans and local residents. Still this many meetings suggests not only that the two parties are interested, but that they believe there is a way to make this happen despite the expected objections.

CurlyHairLikeLuiz 1,625 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Making Twickenham move permanent is an option ?No way would the borough or the RFU fans allow that.They probably view a football club playing at Twickers sacrilege as it is.

Liuxas 125 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 When Expansion plans will start? I mean every rival teams are building or expansion their stadiums. Liverpool, Man City, West Ham, even Spurs building a new stadium. Next Seria A teams thinking about it AS Roma new stadium, AC Milan,Inter. So we are really a Big club or just pretending?. For me is so hard to get tickets because basically every time is full. I heard and saw problems. Yeah, I know the stadium is surrounded with a lot of building and there is no space for expansion. Someone has any news? By the way I head Roman hired architects with good reputation I if I'm not wrong, they have built Beijing NT Stadium and Munchen Bayern stadium "Allianz Arena". Sometimes i jealous when i see our rivals playing in World Class stadiums like Old Trafford or Emirates Stadium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
