Take that back...I spent almost 2 years on that job!! Nothing wrong with it from a functional point of view...in fact, whilst it isn't the Emirates it is a highly environmentally and economically sustainable facility...perfect for their needs.
I wasn't talking about quality and function and I'm not questioning how well suited it is to their needs. In terms of quality, function and sustainability, it's spot on. Just seems a very unambitious project from them and I think it was probably not the greatest move moneywise in terms of their underwhelming fan base. Swansea built a new stadium and ended up challenging for Europe in the Premiership. Colchester built a new stadium and are fighting relegation to the bottom tier of English football. Forgive me if I'm wrong, as I don't know how much Layer Road cost to run etc. but although that ground was a cow shed, was it really necessary to have forked out the money they did for a fan base they didn't have and have failed to attract?
