KISS Keep it simple stupid The stadium will be unique, small, but hopefully on top of each other to create a good atmosphere. It's a shame we'll no longer be the stadium with a pub on each corner, hopefully those pubs will still be used by away fans as much as they will the home fans.

Thanks for clearing that up that you were talking about Highbury the old arsenal stadium.

Hahaha Theres a genuine reason for the clarification in that post and it's to do with being a local living and brought up in the Highbury area. It's an automatism that comes out naturally when in reference to the Old Highbury Stadium because The Emirates is still regarded as Highbury for the locals and the plus in all of this is because Highbury is an area within a borough which the stadium got its name from. Remodelling Highbury when talking locally could mean anything but I forgot that here we have genuine understanding on London's geography coupled with local football history in the London Borough of Islington! @Gunnersauraus is someone I shouldn't have underestimated in the slightest... He's one quick kipper! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smiley Culture 1,651 Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 The building of any ground, especially those in London where land and space is at a premium, is highly impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny 2,206 Posted December 27, 2019 Author Share Posted December 27, 2019 The stadium is really starting to take shape now and I’m looking forward to seeing it packed out. A lot of our fans have been upset by the multicoloured seats but I think they give it some character that a big colour block could lack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness it has been a long time coming, stadiums these days once the building is ready there’s not a lot of waiting unless it’s a mammoth task like Wembley or the new Spurs stadium where the owners underestimate how long it’ll take to complete for political reasons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny 2,206 Posted January 6, 2020 Author Share Posted January 6, 2020 Not exactly the new stadium but fits in with the theme of the topic.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlr 167 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Lovely ground is Griffin Park, the epitome of a proper old English league ground that has aged perfectly. Will be a shame to see it go, but I can imagine it is well at odds with what the future needs, especially if they end up getting promoted. The new place looks decent too, has a bit of character already I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
