Knock that down and apparently there’s enough room for a spurs style mega stadium.. make Gallowgate/ Barrack Road into a tramway to get punters from the boozers to the ground & back double quick 👍 I assume they mean Hunters Moor behind the studios. You wouldn't fit Croft Park into the BBCs land 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 42173 Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 I’d be surprised if they are considering a move away from SJP. Otherwise why go to the bother to acquire the land behind the Gallowgate End? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure of the economics but maybe expand the Gallowgate "cheaply" to give 60k over say 1-2 years while building a 75/80k complex elsewhere which might take 5 years or more. Extra 8k over 5 years might be worth it before a move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJS 5305 Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 I think allowing for the whole process, spurs took that long - maybe not 5 years but getting there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 63322 Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 No googling. Sean Dyche is in danger of becoming the 10th manager to be relegated from the Premier League with two or more teams. Can you name the 9 absolute Champs who've already achieved this feat? Guess and I'll tell you as you get the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
