I think that is great news, mind you I would prefer to stay at Saint Andrews, but it is obvious the club are commited to a new stadium and as such will not will not now rebuild the main stand. |

thing is, with it being an all sports village does it mean that there will be a track round the pitch |

This is such great news! We go up this season, get the new stadium under way and in 10 years time we could be seeing Inter, Barca or PSV playing us in the champions league. . . . Sorry? what? oh ok, sorry chaps I have to go and take my medication! |

The Rumour going round the mill ATM is that the stadium will have something to do with Umbro, maybe called the Umbro stadium and that they will help the councill to fund it as they want to get a firm hold in England. Make of that what you like...........i cant see it happening? |

the seats are retractable, as is the roof. it'd be our own version of the Millennium Stadium, but sexier :banner: it's not gonna be like Juve's Stadio Delle Alpi as some seem to assume |

Yeah, if its like the millenium stadium then yes, cause that is an absolutely brilliant stadium, but if its athletics track round the pitch then "no" |

if it helps us to compete with Europe's biggest teams...yes please :D btw some of the pictures posted are just a model of what the stadium might look like. i doubt the distance from pitch to seats, tier sizes and tier steepness is truly represented in those models. they wouldnt make us come to the stadium needing binoculars :LOL: |

the rundown... 55,000 all seater stadium, with retractable seats for atheltics (likely to be used as part of a bid for the 2014 Commonwealth Games for Birmingham) and cricket (but that's unlikely as Warwickshire Bears have decided to redevelop Edgbaston. click HERE to see the new Edgbaston redevelopment, it's mighty impressive, looks a bit like the City of Birmingham stadium too) it'll also come with a retratacble roof and sliding pitch (=a vast improvement of pitch quality :ph43r: ) the sports village will include - a soccer dome - indoor arena - basketball - swimming pool - health and fitness centre - tennis courts - community football facilities - hotels - retail - casino complex (perhaps) |

It seems no more than a pipedream at the moment, but a new stadium would really help us on a push towards better things. All for it, but not getting my hopes up **thumbup |
