That Valencia stadium looks ****, inside will probably be fantastic thoughThomas Hicks SeniorComment

I think the Valencia stadium looks great, a lot better than the scaled-up version of the Reebok Stadium that is the design for the new LFC stadium. Its very cutting edge and quite an architectural statement. The model does look a bit like a toliet seat though!Originally posted by Morphorino View PostComment

There's only one Shakey and his real name's not Maktoum.

Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.

I rather tall building, I've heard a rumour that from the penthouse suite you can actually see into Anfield!! 
The Burj Dubai (Arabic: برج دبي for "Dubai Tower") is a skyscraper currently under construction, since April 15, 2005, in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, at 25°11′58.34″N, 55°16′20.66″E. The lead architect is Adrian Smith of the Chicago office of Skidmore, Owings and Merrill. Its final height is officially being kept a secret due to competition; however, figures released by a contractor on the project have suggested a height of around 808 metres (2651 feet)[1]. Based on this height, the total number of habitable floors is expected to be around 162. However, on the project's official website, a interior graphic of an elevator panel shows floor numbers up to 195. A more recent article by building subcontractor Persian Gulf Extrusions and dated September 20, 2006, states a final height "over 940 metres" or at least 3084 feet, [2] but this has not yet been confirmed by Emaar. This new figure is 24 metres higher than the final height rumoured on another posting on the burjdubaiskyscraper web site. As of December 4, 2006, the Burj Dubai was at 91 stories (about 330.5 m) tall, is now the third tallest building in Dubai, and the ninteenth tallest building in the world. However, evidently, little in the way of curtain wall glass has been installed yet on the structure Source Wiki
940m tall! Bloody hell - that would make it the 4th highest mountain in England (if it was a mountain!!!)Last edited by Rich; 07-12-06, 11:35 AM.James Philip Milner Fanclub #1
