I'm assuming AI has us moving from The Lane?

Not really, the current site would easily fit all those designs.

The actual construction and temporary home would be the tricky part!

 

[FTPE]

Yeeeer.
I hate them all.

Can’t say I agree, a lot of those designs took up way more space than the BL plot would allow

I’ve not measured the area needed for those designs, but I’d be amazed if they wouldn’t fit. The Lane is a massive area if you include the car park and land behind the Kop.

at least this one isnt surrounded by the forest in number 1 love the turnstyle entrances


wasnt keen on the brick Ibrox look alike with retro floodlights

And how it'll read in ten years according to AI

So, the hotel has been bulldozed to the ground.

This looks awful. It looks like Derby and Reading's soulless and lifeless paint by numbers Meccano set stadiums.

Give me the likes of Bramall Lane, Goodison Park and Meadow Lane any day of the week. Keep the original shape and build up.

No need for a car park in 10 years, petrol will be £100 per gallon, EV car battery will be £70k . Access will be via underground tram ......

 

[relish]

Is this what the Star thinks passes for journalism?

 

[Flumps]

So like every other modern stadium. Soul-less oval. Yawn.

 

[YES Blade]

This one looks great, I like the stadiums that have the square corners rather than the round bowl corners. Plus the brick would look amazing.



Inside, something like FC Koln would be the type of design I’d love. A single tier Kop would look also fit great into this design

 

[Jon Bon II]

Load of click-bait shite.

I assume you’ve never been to Goodson Park? It’s a fucking shit hole!

 

[Jon Bon II]

It would have been much easier for The Star to show what the club already has planning permission for, and looks much better IMO. But no, that doesn't bring enough clicks to their website.

What in the dystopian, rollerball, Blade runner is this?

This suggestion (the red brick one) looks like Ibrox.

You mean the one the club has had planning permission for the last 15 odd years and we’ve all seen a million times?

If they did a story on that they’d be accused of just regurgitating old news! I suppose they can’t win.

Sorry mate, I misread your post a bit I think. Yes I agree that all of that all of actual structures would fit, but just that some of the surrounding elements definitely wouldn’t.

Six years. I think it was around 2018, when the plans were submitted for the south stand and kop combined. The kop only was about 15 years ago, but I'm just going off memory here, so I could be out.

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

All these would kill it for me. Takes us completely away from our history. Improve and modernise, great, but what are we left with if the ground is flattened?

 

[Jimmy Fleck]

Star using AI slop is a new low for them

A flat ground?

McCabe did the designs for the extensions as part of the 2018 World Cup bid so maybe around 2010-12 time?

 

[s20Blade]

Hahaha 10 years? Doubt the bogs get mopped that often.

 

[Panini]

I don't like any of those AI versions, apart from a couple of specific bits, but these older plans are absolutely awful and need to be seen as a bullet to dodge.
