The travelling Yanks are going to come in for a bit of a shock heading through Tottenham to the ground though
They should feel right at home with pizza, fried chicken and burgers every 50 yards.

How does this work without having masses of space between the pitch and the seats? Or are the seats retractable too? Or the pitch comes in half?
It couldn't work the way shown in the picture but a synthetic pitch could slide from under the seats I suppose.
there is one in japan (i think) where the end of the stadium opens up and the pitch slides out on a cushion of air. Must be a better way than that.
I assume one pitch would have to be synthetic as it wouldn't get any sun under the other one

I've seen one. I think it was used in the World Cup or the Euros. It was a single grass pitch that was moved outside of the stadium on sunny days.
This is not the one I was thinking of, but they say it can be moved in 90 minutes.

More common than we think.

I just liked the idea that he thought about how much we could get for him and came to the conclusion £6mill was about right. If I got a haircut like his I'd sue my barber for more than £6mill.
Three others I found with retractable pitches:
Veltins Arena, home of Schalke 04
Sapporo Dome (Japan). England have played there during the 2002 World Cup. Maybe that's where I saw it.
GelreDome, home of Vitesse (Netherlands). Used during Euro 2000.
They all shout "MONEY" and "EXTRA INCOME". Levy must have explored it.

Apparently this is a new contender for goal of the season

No, it isn't - anyone with a grain of talent can score a goal like that when nobody is even bothering to mark them.
The Sapporo Dome, which cost £200m - which is 1/3 of what Wembley cost!

You miserable sod, it was a fantastic goal - and she was being marked. If I scored a goal like that I would shoe horn it into every conversation I had - especially with youtube evidence.

No space at WHL for a retractable pitch.
Allegedly the OS plan contemplated this together with whatever redesign of the
new WHL stadium retained the football atmo but improved the acoustics for
music events (AEG were partnering ENIC in the bid) .
But yes, if you assume a synthetic pitch for American football, then I guess some
weird scheme may be possible. Again it would help if we could find the stadium the
article has a piccie of.

Even with the dire standards employed within the UK sports journalism industry, this twat should be booted out for that. Such a poor attempt at a story.
I can't believe that he actually got paid to write it.
Compare it to the one Ginola scored against Ferencvaros

Notice there were players trying to close him down and several players in the box. Not one defender who ran the wrong way leaving a free shot at goal.
Come on, it is a very good goal. Normally in women's football there tends to be some dodgy 'keeping involved but that was just great control and an unstoppable finish.
That top comment though! So cruel
