Jakemoore Posted 12 August 2021 Share Posted 12 August 2021 Where are you seeing this? I thought LCFC were going to release detailed plans today but that’s just some leaked images, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the end game photo in 15/20 years time, they’re just accounting for the rising sea levels. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingkisnorbo Posted 12 August 2021 Share Posted 12 August 2021 Beyond all the glitz of having the expansion, I fear this will effectively decimate any kind of atmosphere that we have in the ground. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah they’ve thought about it. It’s not my area of studies, but look at the way the new roof slopes down towards the pitch, that’s to focus all sound generated from that stand downwards, back into the stadium, instead of out. I think it actually might enhance the noise. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand all his other post but post regarding the stadium goes into a Sir Humphrey type monologue. Ejits 😉. I mean when you are standing to get in through the ticket barrier in the North/South stands, that the area you are standing on will now be inside and covered by the East Stand wraparound to the West Stand...

stripeyfox Posted 12 August 2021 Share Posted 12 August 2021 It looks great. Considering we are working from an identikit stadium, and it would have been a lot easier and cheaper to bolt on a tier a la Cardiff then I think the design is absolutely wonderful. Atmosphere is a subjective term anyway. Our present stadium has both had a fabulous and absolutey shite atmosphere, generally collerating to on field performances.

STUHILL Posted 12 August 2021 Share Posted 12 August 2021 All people want to hear, is that the plan is to add more seats at a later date. Anyone in Top's Avengers whatsapp group? I got booted out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norwichfox Posted 12 August 2021 Share Posted 12 August 2021 Looks an impressive development, will any of the income from the non football businesses find their way back into LCFC coffers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not, certainly not directly. But it will find its way into the owners’ coffers and make them a) less likely to have to sell the club because their duty free business has been crippled by the pandemic; b) more likely to be able to continue to invest in the club.

I'm not sure. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think the club own the stadium. I think King Power own them both separately. It depends on ownership and how it's all structured.

That's really doesn't make sense the owner what to make the club self-sufficient and sustainable, the only way that happens is by increasing it revenue streams. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the owners owning the stadium rather then LCFC was a FFP balancing act. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
