The micro brewery can deliver 10,000 pints a minute. 61,000 in the crowd, does that mean that if everyone orders a pint at half time Ill still have to wait 6 minutes :(

When it said the stadium is set to open next year it really hit home how close it is. Im still thinking ths season is only half way through and we have all next season at Wembley.
Ready next year sounds so much nearer!

The only one that matters is that it's bigger than the one that those wankers Woolwich own.

spot on mate, i remember when the 1st plans detailed a max capacity of 55k.

Back to the drawing they went and came up with the correct no. as you say, more than that lot down the road.

The micro brewery is interesting. That means we won't be selling other brewers beers? More revenue generated. Same for the bakery.

It's not really a micro brewery doing 10k pints a minute is it.
It's more like an uber brewery. Or an epic brewery. :ROFLMAO:

I'm pleased this is now close to reality because for so long it was a pipe dream. That we're so impressed with it shows how the old ground has fallen behind.

It's not just bigger, it's totally superior in every way. Stadium design has moved on so much since they built that boring bowl, comparing their stadium to ours, is now like comparing the old brick mobiles to iPhones.

The most important thing for me is to keep the hardcore fans in the Kop stand. It is important that the new ground maintains the atmosphere of the old one. If not the new Lane will be just like the grounds at Man City, West Ham and Arsenal - soulless and full of EPL tourists.

You think they really give a shit about that? They have regular CL football, we haven't finished above them since 94/95 .
Last season especially they punked us bad. Going on about our slightly bigger ground... its a joke to them.

Amazing new stadium for us, just with the seating was more steep, looks like a gradual climb which is shit

I agree,this has nothing to do with them, this is all about us.
