[Football] Development at Craven cottage.

[*Gullsworth*]

Fulhams new stand.

Looks fantastic, restaurants and rooms, even swimming pool overlooking the Thames, which they bought a chunk of to overhang the river. Can someone please post pictures worth a look.

My heart is jumping with joy on behalf of all the Chinese tourists that will get to experience this.

Probably be a real moneyspinner out of football hours though. Good location for rooms and restaurants over looking the Thames. What's not to like, will improve the capacity of the ground and will probably, if run correctly, make money for the club out of a building that would be redundant for 80% of the week.

Hope it falls in the Thames

I'm no Norman Foster, but the roof looks the wrong shape to me... upside down, maybe?

It’s not a good a drawing as Palaces....

Well it didn't work spending money on the team so they may as well spend it on the ground

The rooms would benefit from privacy features, like - you know - curtains.

Nah they will be that type of glass that goes black at the touch of a button.

Seems a bit tinpot to cram nine flats in there- I mean, they’ll sell for a lot of money but it’s a one-off return rather than something that generates ongoing income, and it looks a bit desperate having to have people living in your stand to make the numbers add up. Strange.

Out of interest, why?

 

[RandyWanger]

They've got a really good location for development. Those 9 flats, river or pitch side view?

That's rather harsh, why? I've always enjoyed my many trips to Craven Cottage over the years, last season excepting.

Hmmm. I've always liked Craven cottage but this appears to turn it from being a traditional old football stadium into a footy ground/conference centre/shopping mall hybrid. Not like at all.

Yes, I agree with you Rob, but I suppose they've got to make use of every asset they've got.

Me too, what is so annoying about Fulham?
