Possibly. Not an engineer by any stretch but people I know that have more experience have said they think there's issues for foundations etc with the metro underneath. As I say though, they've not seen plans, been on site in that capacity or anything like that.
£100's of millions? Most spectacular and innovative in the world? Can't be right - our majority owners have lost interest. Focussed on their own league now, to our detriment. CC assured me that this was so.
Indeed. And we'll never be as big as Aston Villa. We (the NUFC fans) just need to deal with the facts.
Don’t quite understand. What does an expansion of 8000 look like and how would that be worth the millions it would cost? Doesn’t sound like they’re going to “complete” the stadium, seems to me they’d only upgrade the end, but I guess we’ll see.
100s of million won't do anything close to best in the world although if it's the higher end of the 100s it would be pretty decent.
Technically, it probably wouldn't be the best in England (though it already is...), seeing as Tottenham's and Wembley both cost over £1billion.
This is great news. Progress right. That’s what we wanted. Not many want us to move site so this seems the most logical decision. Can’t wait to see the plans.
Exactly... 100s of millions really wouldn't get anything close to that. It would cost over a billion to start getting close and it would take longer than building it new. I will await the actual plans and numbers because hundreds of millions isn't very telling, but I'm guessing it'll be 500 million at least.
Can't believe the council would deny an extension of the lease then allow them planning for Leazes Park and Castle Leazes
