Why are some fans so obsessed with building a nice new big shiny stadium?

How much extra revenue do you think 7k a week would bring in? If we charge £1000 for 7000 extra ST's thats £7 million not that it would be close that figure more like £4 million a year tops. Thats not even enough to keep Diakite and Mbia on the books now!!!

We could make far more through the sale of players which we buy on the cheap.

You enjoy selling Les Ferdinand W12?

There are some f*ckin wind up merchants on here

[QPR Richard]

I apologise as it must have been somebody else that posted their excitement about seeing certain opposing players and not you. Glad to hear your viewpoint on that is the same as mine anyhow :-)

No need to V, I know you're harmless

[QPR Richard]

My match day experience is only pleasent if we win , but yes I'm a hypocrite because I sit in platinum and come the day when we move stadium I will sit in the same place as that's the view I prefer.

Still imagine you'll still be hanging around the players entrance with your autograph book in your Rangers track suit and matching cap

You have a vivid imagination if you think that's what I do. What an odd assumption.

Who don't enjoy their club selling their best players to survive or because the players concerned want to win trophies?! Selling players and stagnating means we are a 'proper' club don't you know.

since the likes of QPR Richard got a taste of the Premier League Razzamtazz!

You really are a weird bloke. It's razzmatazz for your information. You can't even spell the word. And yes, I want us back in the prem because I want my team playing at the highest level. Nothing wrong with that.

The seats in Platters are no different to the rest of the ground all they have is a cushion on the seat...big deal! I like to sit on the halfway line so I pay a premium for my matchday experience.

To say its not fit for purpose isa bit of an exaggeration after all it is a Premier League standard in terms of facilities and that is a fact....could it be better yes but deal with it and enjoy the football

Spot on. We go to watch football not eat pies

Oh i see .....i'm just a glory hunter then

I'd support a new stadium if it gave the team the resources to get back to the premier league and stay there. That way I could watch the team play on tv or a video stream, instead of having to listen to an audio stream with god awful Birmingham commentators.

Sit in Ellersie Rd and went down for a pee at half time. From leaving my seat on the whistle to getting back to it having fought through the crowds (there and back), queued for the toilet I got back as the as players were coming out. 15mins to take a slash!!!!!!!!!!

Granted the main part of the visit to the ground is the match but how people can suggest that facilities play no part in the matchday experience is beyond me.

Also on way back there was a dad in front of me also fighting his way through the crowd with two kids who said and I quote 'this is ridiculous were not coming back here' so potentially two supporters of the next generation may have been lost simply because of the facilities. We also lose out on money as I don't buy anything from the kiosk because of how long the queues are as we only have one outlet, often im thirsty but think just wait until after the game, reckon there are plenty more like me who would buy if the outlets had reasonable queues.

Love Loftus Road but its time for a move

In every single thread where this subject has come up .......I have yet to see anyone who is 'obsessed' with the idea of a new stadium......

I have seen posts where people accept what top level football has become in England and aren't afraid to embrace change.....and these same people probably harbour inhibitions about what the future holds for our club.

Obsessed? Get a grip son

It's easier to argue against this imaginary 'obsessed' mass of idiots, than the actual opinions held by real people.

Bog standard straw-man.

Looks like Dicky Boy has discovered a new role as well as the messageboard bore he has now thrown his hat in the ring for the role of the spelling police !!!

I'll be glad when you go to bed with your mug of cocoa and stop moaning Victor!

excellent post West, agree 100%, the ground is 30 years out of date

[vblockranger]

I suppose we could always spruce up the ground? spend a few million modernising although that wouldnt increase capacity (or get TF and his gang the venue they want in West London).
