    Lots of teams have built them and then faded away, Middlesbrough, Derby, Arsenal, Spurs etc etc.

    Do they do anything to raise a club or even it's profile, do players want to go and play at a club because of it's shiny new building or for other reasons?

    Everton are the latest to get planning permission for one, will it be a nice place to work but a millstone on the the club that will pull them further down?

    Don't worry about it, Diego. You'll never go to one.

    I’m looking forward to seeing Everton’s ground when completed and really hope that the end result is not too far away from the architects designs. It looks a cracking stadium.

    The contractor who’s building it took the original architects plans and reworked them after we’d appointed them. Which meant we had to resubmit the planning application, which is one reason why it’s dragged on longer than hoped, but should ensure that the end product is close to the images that they themselves have created.

    Tickets are expensive but I go regularly... never paid more than £60 and that was for a CL semi final...mostly paid around £45-£50....way too expensive but not what you said...I could never afford to take my girls to games at those prices

    I like Twickenham because it’s an old school stadium modernised.
    Wembley reminds me of a shopping centre inside, I haven’t been inside spur’s one.
