    I think it looks like somewhere where Kim Jong Un would keep his political prisoners.

    I guess it is beautiful, in a brutal, horribly gothic way.....

    Agreed, there is beauty in it Herzog & de Meuron are known and respected for their designs i.e. the Birds Nest in Beijing.

    Nope.

    It was painful and long enough for Sky Sports to have to
    invent a "top 6" to keep the Poool on the list, so they are
    not going to change it again so soon.

    I think you mean in a Tyrion Lannister plagiarised kind of way.

    I would say Big 3 (££££, Chavs and UTD) Multiple PL winners

    Then not quite as big but still big 2 (Arsenal, Leicester) both PL winners

    Then so so big 2 (We have never won the PL Liverpool and Spuds)

    The whole NDP is allegedly 1bn, with new WHL ~800m of that.
    The latter is a rise from the oft quoted 400m-odd around 2011 time.

    A Bodinki always pays his debts (with a like for every
    subsequent RDBD posting made on the PL board for
    a month) .

    Unlikely as £500 million is being funded by Chinese businessmen for a share in the stadium.

    Money laundering or betting syndicate then. You fookers will destroy football, once it's built your average supporter will not even be able to afford to go. Plus you are all relying on SKY and Abramovich, one day that massive bubble is going to burst. You only have to look at the recent antics of Sky and BT to realise the concern over the competition. No disrespect to Chelsea but for the Premier League as a whole i hope in my lifetime it does come crashing down, in the same way OnDigital crashed.

    They reckon the chinese super league is going bust, so you may not be far off the truth there.

    You may get a Morelata
