Leicester/ Leics catchment area is bigger than people think and being a one club city I was a little surprised we didn’t go for a higher capacity, but have to say it looks very impressive
Including coaching staff and match day squadFixed.
I personally think those bowl stadiums lack soul and character. OT may need upgrading, but I certainly hope when that happens, same as when Chelsea eventually renovate the Bridge, that they keep the 4 stands the way it is now.if you look at staadiums like City/Spurs/Arsena/PSG they look so modern. If you look at the players entrance at old trafford it seems like they are coming out of a factoy workshop. Really feeling bad that a club like UTD falling behind so much.

City and PSG were both given their stadiums. Spurs now have the biggest debt in the PL and well look at Arsenal since they went to The Emirates.if you look at staadiums like City/Spurs/Arsena/PSG they look so modern.

Not Essien's calculator?Ah, that would be the old PSG Fair Play Calculator at work there i think.
I think the capacity is fine for the time being as there is still room for further expansion if needed. Better to build in stages as demand justifies.Leicester/ Leics catchment area is bigger than people think and being a one club city I was a little surprised we didn’t go for a higher capacity, but have to say it looks very impressive
Will be the best stadium in the championship!
Looks good though.
Isn't it a question of how building the whole thing in one is too much of a drain on a club's resources?Funny how clubs in this country prefer to develop individual stands, often in clashing styles, as opposed to looking at the entire stadium.

Leicester City stadium expansion plans approved
Councillors have approved plans for Leicester City to expand the King Power Stadium by 8,000 seats.
They have a good and loyal fanbase. They haven't exactly been rolling in trophies have they? They'll have no problem filling it.Mental to think they are willing to go ahead with expanding the stadium but not providing transfer funds to keep the team safe in the league. No point having a 40+k stadium if they can't fill it in while being in the Championship, bit of a backward future planning.
True, but then they’ve already costed to build surrounding infrastructure including a ‘fanzone’?Isn't it a question of how building the whole thing in one is too much of a drain on a club's resources?
Ironically this development has already cost Leicester a transfer window, with more financial burden to come following this.Isn't it a question of how building the whole thing in one is too much of a drain on a club's resources?
The design is nice and crisp.https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-leicestershire-62908016

not true Rodgers has cost himself that, and has now fallen out with 1 of the 3 players he signed that he actually played because he spoke the truth post match about us not playing well.Ironically this development has already cost Leicester a transfer window, with more financial burden to come following this.
This also is not true!not true Rodgers has cost himself that, and has now fallen out with 1 of the 3 players he signed that he actually played because he spoke the truth post match about us not playing well.
Also apparently they had a blazing row over set piece defensive set up, Rodgers didn't want to change it because you know we're so great at it ...
yes we have losses but that's not why we didn't spend it was to avoid future FFP restrictions, caused because Rodgers has wasted so much money on players he never plays.This also is not true!
Leicester have been struggling for a while financially, the training ground took funds from elsewhere leading to a hefty loss on the club's books, the redevelopment cost overall will be even worse.
This is the reason why the transfer windows will be quiet for Leicester for the foreseeable. Nowt to do with Rodgers.
Probably should’ve bought some players instead of spending all the money on the training ground and stadium. biteyes we have losses but that's not why we didn't spend it was to avoid future FFP restrictions, caused because Rodgers has wasted so much money on players he never plays.
I wish fans of other clubs would stop trying to tell us why we didn't spend

Infrastructure spending doesn't count towards FFP.Probably should’ve bought some players instead of spending all the money on the training ground and stadium. bite
I know. I white texted it.Infrastructure spending doesn't count towards FFP.
It’s not my fault that you spent all your money on a shiny new fan zone instead of desperately needed players. whoooosh.you really are a sad little man aren't you
You spent £100m on a new training ground, where do you think that money came from?yes we have losses but that's not why we didn't spend it was to avoid future FFP restrictions, caused because Rodgers has wasted so much money on players he never plays.

Yes you know more than our owner who publicly said we needed to sell first due to FFP regulations especially around the wage bill.You spent £100m on a new training ground, where do you think that money came from?
You're planning on building new infastructure, which requires money.
That's the reason you didn't spend, nothing to do with Rodgers.
Although I do agree that some of the signings were a bit strange.
