Is the new stadium too big?
« on: April 29, 2014, 06:01:27 PM »
I just. I've been looking at the artist's impression on the Council website, and while I'm all for the move, I can't help but feel it's a bit ambitious?

Don't worry, it won't look anything like the cgi, they never do.

Is that Plymouth?
So many people have come and gone, their faces fade as the years go by.
Yet I still recall as I wander on, as clear as the sun in the summer sky.

I create YouTube videos (BUFC/FM/CM 01-02), and stream Football Manager on Twitch as BostonUnitedFM.

Quite happy with the size but don't particularly like the way the shadows are falling on the pitch. I hope the planners / designers take this into account. Also needs to be pigeon proof, following an unfortunate incident in the stadium a few weeks ago when a supporter was literally 'shi* on' !!

It *hit on three. Electrified mesh suspended from the roof like dodgem car rides have, that will resolve that issue, and provide a tasty snack.
