New stadium update...

[AFII]

Won't it be a little difficult to see the players in that hole. The crowd won't exactly be close to the ground so it will be a **** atmosphere.

You got it.

I thought that the *owners* were'nt going to make a decision until mid-jan?

[AFII]

You got it.

At least it will be red

Further to that potty post in the early hours of the morning (I wasn't pissed, just needed one) my mate the architect came round yesterday and tried describing the AFL design to me. He did a few basic drawings and it looked like a giant potty!!

He said he's going to bring me some elevations (I nodded knowledgeably as if I understood what that meant) when he's back at work.

As was already been said, let's hope it's not a piss-poor design with a **** atmosphere...

If your saying that his pic looked like a potty then I imagine it is a bowl with the 2 wembley style arches you mentioned.

The high end of the "potty" would be the Kop right ?

Does this mean that it will be completely dis-proportionate to the other 3 sides of the stadium ?

He drew the stadium like a bowl with one end (the Kop) curving much higher than the rest of the ground, hence my nickname "The Giant Potty". However, he did say there were some nice design features on it so it doesn't look like a bigger version of the City of Manchester stadium or the Reebok like the original AFL plans.

He then drew two Wembley-style arches across the stadium which made it look like a big sandal!!

I'm hoping he's in work again this week (he contracts and has no fixed hours so it depends on how pissed he gets or not) and can get the elevation plans.

Good work RS4. Thanks for sharing.

The council did say we'd have to stay within the approved footprint!

Potty my arse.




Ta RS4.

[CharlieMansonsSquint]

Cheers RS4.

No doubt the anti-owner element will find something to complain about re this.

Nice one Iain, that should be very interesting.
I havn't read the rest of the posts after this one yet, but you have most likely already been informed what elevations are (what it looks like from a certain side or angle).
You can pm them to me if you want

I am angered that Moores sold to H&G & not to 'ONE OF THE RICHEST MEN IN THE WORLD' we had the chance to get him hooked on Liverpool if we had sold to him, ok maybe i'm dreaming, but i beleive in the power of LFC to captivate. We would have been made for the future. No doubt about funds, spent or not.
