Forest's new ground plans

[allardyces tash]

At yesterday's game it sounded like a lot of Notts fans was green in envy with the purposed plans for the redevelopment of the City Ground.

I was surprised to see that a discussion hadn't been created on PON too.

What is the general census of "the neighbours" plans to further expand their stadium?

I am glad to see the plans have retained the traditional style of ground, it would have been very easy to bump the capacity up by including corner areas throughout each stand. In comparison to other stadium re-builds, I can't help but feel impressed even though this is Forest. The ground looks English, it looks better than most Premier League re-builds. The increase may be a small amount but surely it will be good for the city of Nottingham???

It won't be long until those realistic fans start to want Notts to re-build Meadow Lane despite the attendance figures not warranting it. Only comment I heard that seemed valid was if Notts lost the ground and was forced to relocate/re-build a new stadium.

As for Forest, it's nice in appearance but not much different.

It does look good to be fair. They haven't relocated to a soulless bowl on the edge of town, which is good. I feel that football grounds should be at the heart of their communities rather than on a motorway junction.

Still hope it'll all fall into a giant sink hole mind.

Technically they are not in the city . 

Good for them.

it looks better and very modern, stylish even but other those good words. i dont care.

Credit where it's due, it does look good. The question I have is will it actually happen? They've talked about this sort of stuff for years.

If only Meadow Lane could get a bit more of a revamp, we can only dream but the City Ground does look stylish by the artwork design.

I'm not sure the extra 10,000 is a sizeable upgrade considering the cost but it does look nice.

It looks okay, actually, and I didn't take offence to the jokes about a Meadow Lane becoming an ASDA superstore. Besides, there's no chance of that happening with the West Bridgefords store being 5 minutes up the road.

They can do what they like really aslong as they stay put on the wrong side of the river, it makes us still the ONLY club in the city

[magpiejue]

it does look good. But will the residents of "Bread and Lard" Island object when the planning thing goes up!?

[cheeky~k8]

It looks better than it does now, abit more matching.

It looks good ground just if it was black and white with a notts badge

[Dash_16k]

It look verry good especially the lights around it just if it had more white and black on it.

I do like how they have retained the traditional shape, I wished Notts could afford to do something better with the Sirrel and Family Stand. I know it's needed but those two parts really let Meadow Lane down.

Jimmy Sirrel deserves the Pavis Stand stature.

I’ve seen the new plans for the city ground not going to lie it looks good very smart indeed. I’m told from forest fans that it will cost a fair bit but the owner appears to want to invest. I look forward to seeing it finished.

Credit where it's due, the ground does look very smart and its nice to see a club avoiding building something beyond their means. It's a modest revamp and I respect that.
