Name me a nearby stadium with more than 26,000 capacity minus 6,000 in the main stand? And then one where all us lazy feckers are going to fill it every week.

Maybe alternatives have been considered and rejected for a plethora of reasons or maybe a temporary move has never been on the agenda at all.

So no answer to your claim we'll have to move for a season.

With respect, I haven't been involved in any detailed discussions regarding the feasibility of remaining at 'Selhurst Park' whilst the work is carried out or moving temporarily so I certainly don't have an 'Expert' view on this matter.

All I was saying that from the outside it does seem difficult to see how, given that we need a significant upgrade, this can be achieved within a reasonable timescale and without significant disruption.

As I say I'm not an expert on these matters and maybe my thinking is extremely warped on this subject !

Liverpool needed to upgrade a single stand with an extra tier.We need to upgrade the whole darned stadium.With a stand-by-stand approach whilst still playing there this could take darned ages, not forgetting all the inconvenience of having a stand out of action.Just doesn't seem that practical from the outside but I haven't seen any detailed plans nor been party to any discussions.


The architects that Liverpool used, and which I understand we have also consulted, built a new stand behind and over the existing stand so that the stand REMAINED IN USE. Then, with the new stand in use, the old stand was demolished and rebuilt. I'm not aware that SP has promised anything other than a programme of rebuilding over an extended period of time.

Your anxiety has been addressed before with the proposed plans and really you should know so.

Rest assured, I don't suffer any "Anxiety" on this subject.

Just the scale of the re-development has led me to consider some issues from an outsiders point of view.

I think the decision will hinge on this season, as I can't see us maintaining sell-outs if we drop to the Championship, unfortunately.

On the other hand, we could absorb the hit on a stand being taken out of action for several months if we were only getting 12,000 crowds!

Redevelopment needs to take place whatever league we are in. The size of parachute payments now means that there is no excuse for it to be delayed any further. In fact you could argue given the probable drop in player salaries, it will free up a little more money.

In my opinion, which league we are in should only have an impact on quite how far any redevelopment goes.

That's a very valid point... maybe this was all part of Pardew's master plan. Maybe he's a time traveller? I guess we'll never know now

Yeah, I don't go for this "it won't happen if we go down" argument. We need to speculate to accumulate, no matter what division we find ourselves in next season and beyond.

Are you sure you dont just get a little palm sweaty when Stands are mentioned?
