It's my understanding, and I know this from a good source, that the brown rectangle in the middle of the picture is actually going to be a football pitch. There is grass growing right now. I shit you not!
HA! You say that, but I showed the picture to a Stoke fan I work with. Not the sharpest tool in the box and he thought the seagull was the walkway to get out of the stand.
It was the Barnet game. It was my first and last game watching from the south west terrace, which meant I'd watched a game from every part of the ground, before they knocked the old girl down.
Apologies if I stood in your place after you'd been watching in that spot for years!
I wish I shared your confidence. I mean, it's easy to overlook something like the football pitch when you're spending nearly £100 million on a stadium, purpose built, for playing/watching football.
