I'm not sure how much more characterful you can make a modern structure that's built for safety and accommodation as the top priorities.

The character should come from the culture of the club and fans as we do when we visit any ground around the country.

West Ham have suffered hugely from moving to a new stadium. Its sucked the atmosphere from the club. So both have to work together.

But if you look at something like the Wanda Metropolitano. Thats an example of being both a good stadium and set of fans to make the brilliant atmosphere.

So yeah, I think stadiums absolutely can be designed to be characterful, whislt being a lot safer for people.

The Millennium Stadium is acoustically poor, not sure if characterful looks can do anything about that.

It held the world record for loudest crowd when we played there in 2005.

Sorry, London Stadium. I thought they were one and the same!

Ah.

No, Cardiff is Millennium (built around the year 2,000).

[BobTheCharmer]

“same character and atmosphere.”

I would imagine even when Everton played at Anfield the atmosphere was the same as now?

That was over a 100 years ago. Lol.

[Kenneth]

And it's not an equivalent situation as its comparing the same stadium, not a team mocoving and keeping their atmosphere.

Re-built!

The original stadium was built in the 30's (I think) with various upgrades.

Well, yes.

Then they rebuilt it in the year end...

[Liverpool]

the roof being on when Riise scored his goal in the millennium is what broke the record, still a cracking stadium in the Liverpool end of it with the single tier, the other 3 sides not so much

looking at the Spurs pics, it has 3 tiers around 3 sides, 3 tiers don't tend to generate good atmospheres with almost a delay between them, that middle tier for corporates does a lot of damage as well with gaping hole between 'proper' fans. The stadium doesnt look very steep, always found steeper stadiums to be more intimidating and generate more noise.

The main problems teams have who move grounds, is not sitting fans together properly to generate noise, Arsenal were at the Emirates for 10 years before naming a stand the clock end, ten years of them people sat all over the shop.

Look at Crystal Palaces home form this season after the dispute their singing section being dispersed

I've always wondered how Palace manage to get the whole crowd singing in unison and presumed it was because the ground was small, makes a lot of sense that it's single tier stands that make the difference

[pezzzer]

I'm sure the NFL fans will love it
