Loving that we have a load of structural engineers on the board now.

Pretty sure there was an article fairly recently about why the corners could not be filled in, something to do about the stanchions being essential to the structural integrity of the SKD and Kop stands.

I thought we couldn't extend Anfield anymore? That said, I was at the Springsteen concert last month and thought - could we not move the Kop back in an arc at the back (Possibly over the corner of Walton Breck Rd) and join up the corners between the SKD, the Kop, and the Main Stand? And what about those corners at the Anny Rd end? Finally - another tier on the SKD? Would that involve pillars? Would filling the corners in do the same thing?

All-in-all, possibly 20k? Realistically, 5k -10k shouldn't be out of the question.

Btw you could do a lot of things that would be minimal if the council was willing to reorient the road. The pub, largely derelict shops and the church would be options to be bought over and relocated or whatever.

Would love to see a big kop bit of work but it'd end up looking kind of like the spurs bowl which is actually two times. Part of the thing about the kop is you can't see the back of it it killed of runs up and is dark and its the people that make the noise and it special.

I don't think many more rows are possible.

Anyway the issue with corners is design. Fsg cheap assed it ;) the design has big **** off steel pillars holding up the roof trusses so doing what dortmund did would be very tough and corners don't really add thst much.

A lot of the new seats are not even in line with the pitch. You are sat off looking. Down on the other stands and have to look to the side to see the pitch <laugh>

The kop end was before my time but there are a few shots of it being built as games were going on. You'd have to take the whole roof off more or less.

That's why I said itd be very expensive.
 
Adingra (Brighton) gone to Sunderland £21m+
Kudus (Wham) gone to Spurs £55m
Gibbs-White most likely to Spurs £60m

Thought I'd get us back to actual transfer talk.

Adingra is an odd one, thought he looked one of Brighton's better players last season, maybe lost form in the 2nd half of the season. But 21m seems low for a young talent.
Also shows the importance of Spurs winning the EL and getting CL. Money to spend and players willing to move there, despite how ****e they were last season.

Think Brighton just have a lot of wide players ahead of him

Mitoma
Gruda
Minteh
March

Plus Enciso and Bounanotte coming back from loan.

Do kudus and gibbs white really improve spurs?

They need a goal keeper and imo cms to control the ball and they are top 6 again.

As long as they get shut of son they will be OK.

They need centre backs also right? Looks like walking red-card Romero could be off and his partner is a midfielder by trade filling in.

I think they certainly improve their attack depending on the shape they play but, as you say, it's not attack they struggle with. Their defence is alright of they they can stay fit but that's a big if too
 
Hendo joins Brentford on a trip year deal. What odds can we get on the contract being terminated in January to allow him to switch clubs again? <whistle>
