Could be the 'new' BBC offices that get knocked down.

Do you think if we allowed them to use our stadium they would allow us to use a couple of their players if we had any injuries, if not we could always state that when they play against us they are not allowed to use any of their 25 man squad, it is our manor after all so we can make up the rules.

I get the feeling a deal was done with the BBC ages ago

I was under the impression that Bernie had an option on the BBC site.
And i think that was BE's reason for involvement
Probably passed on to TF now.
Chelsea will go a Thames site at Battersea i think.
Plenty of scope for tapas bars and dodgy hotels overlooking the river.

Would be an extortionate build process. You'd need to bring everything in by river, as they did when building the power station. There no road/rail infrastructure around it to support 60,000 fans. Limited size really too.

What happened with Earls court, thought they had that in the bag, railway stations with separate entrances at each end, massive site, close to where they are now etc, don't see what what the problem was there.
