Chelsea have made a bid to buy Battersea Power Station and plan to redevelop it into a 60,000 capacity stadium. The landmark's four chimneys would be kept as part of a design that includes a 15,000 seat single-tier south stand. Chelsea said in March expanding their current home, Stamford Bridge, made no economic sense, while a new stadium on the site faced planning problems. The club added they are not the only party interested in acquiring the site. Source:http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/17958598
Seems like everyone is going to have a better ground than us soon. If we're not moving, would like to hear something about redevelopment. The whole stadium drama has been going on too long and cost too much money.
Haha Chelsea moving to a different part of London. No sense of identity in that club - plastic. But I agree - at least they are moving on with a new stadium. Hopefully we can get our fingers out. I read somewhere that Old Trafford makes an extra £70m a year than Anfield which really puts things into perspective.
Involved in this sector/and have been with this station. It will NEVER happen in a million years for quite a number of reasons.
I go past Battersie on the train to London. They need to do some thing with it. This could be a great idea for the site.
Most times people would laugh at this and see the funny side. Then we would realise who was posting it and think, ****, hes actually being serious. The conspiracy continues!
Get a map out! Chelsea and battersea are a stones throw away from each other. It's not like they're moving across the city.
Even as we speak he's on that big leather chair, stroking that white cat and hatching his cunning plan to take over Sarf Lahndon
