Exciting stuff

Fans will hear more detailed plans and emerging concepts surrounding the stadium development and be given the opportunity to share ideas on what they would like to have included.

The inaugural ‘Built by Us’ event will be led by Blues' Head of Infrastructure, Nick Smith and Eliot Postma, Partner and Group Leader at Heatherwick Studio. They will present further insight into the ambitions for the new stadium. The session will provide supporters with a clearer understanding of the scale, purpose, and positive impact of The Powerhouse on the Club, supporters, and the surrounding community.

Sounds good. Have put my email down.

The big thing for me is the two ends. Two single tiers behind both goals. Everton and Spurs are the two modern stadiums with the 'Horseshoe' design. Multi tier wrapped around with one big single tier at one end.

Ours will be two big ends. If only one is the 'Home' end it will have the same issues all the other ones have.

Spurs and Evertons home ends have around 25 / 30 rows of Safe Standing. The other ends are then dead ends. Etihad is like that.

If we could have 25/30 rows of standing for home fans behind both goals would something different to everyone else. Shove the away fans in one corner.

I’m sure it was mentioned previously that the one end behind the goal would be one single huge wall ( Dortmund style)with total safe standing and the other a single walled total seating stand.To me, this is by far the better option

It says in the article that it's an open ballet to all season ticket holders.

I considered entering but truthfully I suspect others will have better input than me. So, I'll leave it to them and just watch the live stream.

These things are probably the same old faces because they're the ones who really want to go to them.

I doubt that will happen.

Neither Spurs or Everton have a full end of safe standing

Even the yellow wall isn’t all standing

It will be the bottom ‘tier’ if anything.

If a supporter is successful and confirms their attendance, and then does not attend, they will not be eligible for future events
.


Excellent, having a ticket then opting not to go because you cant be arsed denies someone else a chance and is outrageous.

Also they should make everyone who is successful in the ballot then have at least one suggestion rather than going with nothing to offer, just to be seen or say "I was there"
Turn left when you get on a plane.

Well if I am lucky enough to be invited I will ask the question.

Waggeh i should think the Bolshoi ballet will be shoe in.

😁 Took me a moment to figure out what you were on about then! My spelling really is shite!

That’s superb. I just expected to see more hospitality boxes but of course you can have loads of hospitality in the stadium without boxes with a view of the pitch like we have now. I actually think a lounge with premium seats is a far better option
Alive. Early starter. Enricher of lives
