Seems nice. But still think we are a long way from any construction.
An absolute must.Just as long as the fans are still close to the pitch, I'm happy
So many hoops to jump through to even get this going. You'll also have this person and that person rejecting the proposals time and time again.Seems nice. But still think we are a long way from any construction.
You would hope the fact local authorities are involved in the process may move things along quicker.So many hoops to jump through to even get this going. You'll also have this person and that person rejecting the proposals time and time again.
They will have to get creative with the financing but yeah more debt likely. I still think it's worth it.Who is paying for this? Or are we going to take on even more debt?
One of my first thoughts too.Just as long as the fans are still close to the pitch, I'm happy
We need to innovateJust as long as the fans are still close to the pitch, I'm happy
Imagine if that was on ps2 instead of ps1
Put a floating stand above the pitch and have fans there too. It will really up the atmosphereWe need to innovate
Let's have fans under the pitch, transparent grass
Heh!Put a floating stand above the pitch and have fans there too. It will really up the atmosphere
Why not ?Hope it never happens.
You do realise that Old Trafford is the name of the area where the ground is located (and the cricket ground) and which the ground is named after. No such place as New Trafford.Has to be New Trafford or keep the Old Trafford name.
2028 would be the 150th anniversary of our founding but might come too soon. Maybe 2028/29 could be the final year at Old Trafford before moving in for 2029/30.I can't imagine we'll be playing anywhere new for what? 5-10years?
Construction alone would probably take 2-3 years... planning etc. will take a similar amount of time, if not more.
Not to mention the work done with architects previously might not all be thrown out. At the very least they know the constraints of the site already.A decade feels awfully long, I’d suspect at Sir Jim’s age, he wants to be around to see it open and have the team be successful in it.
With teamwork with local council I can see this being built in a much quicker fashion. Think the long time in development was due to the surrounding areas and working with the council to build on it.
Considering United own lots of land around OT & the land OT is built on, I can see the new stadium taking a considerable amount of less time.
Don’t you fancy our ticket prices doubling to pay for it mate?Hope it never happens.
You build the new one next door then knock down the old one.So the new stadium will be at the same location as Old Trafford, right? How long did it take to build the Spurs stadium and where would we play in the meantime?
Wonder if there’s scope to keep the old one as the Women’s stadium? Probably too expensive but would be amazing.You build the new one next door then knock down the old one.
Not after they were all-seater thoughOld Wembley, Old Hampden
101 in conclusion jumpingYou can tell there’s going to be a tonne of misinformation surrounding this. People are acting like we’re going to be getting a stadium fully funded by the taxpayer. I’d be shocked if it’s any more than the surrounding area that gets government money.
Wasn't there talk of using the exact same location for the pitch? And if it's as you say, is there enough available land "next door" for a huge new stadium?You build the new one next door then knock down the old one.
Due to SJR's involvement in motor sports we're getting an F1 track around the pitchPlease no running track.
We'll go on tour, a different stadium each week. United v Spurs in Qatar, United v Liverpool in Oslo, United v City in Tokyo etc.Where will we play while this is being built? LSV?
Good point. The new hospitality section being best of class would make it all worthwhile.Don’t you fancy our ticket prices doubling to pay for it mate?
I had a dream years ago it was a 200,000 seater stadium, kinda looked mad max style with 1000's of fans above the pitch in cages in a great dome in those roller coaster type harness things. With a normal huge Azteca sized stadium around the pitch.We need to innovate

Grangemouth? Sounds like a lovely town.https://news.stv.tv/east-central/in...erely-burned-by-caustic-liquid?utm_source=app
Just hope no one gets hurt

Government may have something to say and force hand especially with "levelling up". At the moment some national games are played away from Wembley, so could end up having split between OT and Wembley for more games. Maybe League Cup being at OT and FA cup at Wembley. Could go back to the old way of having semi finals played at OT and somewhere else. NFL and MLB play games in the UK and do very well (with NFL looking at other UK locations) Then you have Rugby League, can easily have England home games at OT as it's closer to the typical northern rugby league support.Will the FA agree to the whole "national stadium of the north" or will we have to force the matter?
Or are you northerners planning to secede from GREAT Britain? You better not get any ideas...
Trafford Arena/Stadium. Got to retain some link I thinkWonder what the new stadium be called? Follow Tottenhams lead and just call it “The Manchester United Stadium”
This is a major concern. It's a serious atmosphere killer when the crowd are too far from the pitch.Just as long as the fans are still close to the pitch, I'm happy
Instead of ‘spider cam’ have ‘spider fan’ - dangle fans face down from wires on a computerised trolley that is programmed to follow the ball.Put a floating stand above the pitch and have fans there too. It will really up the atmosphere
