[Football] Luton Town FCs new ground application

[Sussex Nomad]

Nice looking but bizarre stanchion for the floodlights. At least it isn't a bowl. This has taken quite a while for application, two years, they get the nod - or not - in January.

I've got 18 pence that says it'll be built before palaces 1 stand.

A river running through it should save on the cost of sprinklers.

Will you still be able to see that lady in her kitchen when you are having a jimmy?

Great location in the town centre, 5 mins walk from Luton station and with the Luton-Dunstable Guided Busway services stopping at a new halt next to the Stadium. 17,500 looks a sensible capacity.

Good luck to them, they are on the up.

 

[Tom Bombadil]

They seem like one of those clubs who are forever talking about a new ground. Good luck to them

A comment from the link from one of their fans. I tend to agree.

"It is a fantastic location for a stadium, but the design lacks imagination and reminds me of the New Den, which is probably the most miserable stadium in the whole of Europe. Much much better is required".

I like the floodlights, kind of a modern twist on the classic floodlight. It’s always such a buzz when your walking towards a town centre stadium and you can see the lights hanging high in the sky above the houses.

I like the new Den, very intimidating place to attend when their fans turn up and can be bothered to generate an atmosphere. The new Luton ground looks quite odd with the high floodlights but if the roof is as low as it appears it should be possible to generate a fantastic atmosphere.

Opening in August 2020 seems mildly optimistic doesn't it.

Horrible club with wankers as fans don’t miss going there on bit

 

[MattBackHome]

I like it A LOT.

 

[Gregory2Smith1]

that is horrendous

I'm not even sure if it's better than Kenilworth Road

Too right...the worst experience I have ever had at a football ground...twice in fact.

Build it on the ****ing moon for all I care

 

[Paul Reids Sock]

I really like that. Looking at the other mock ups of it looks great and I LOVE the floodlights

Really! Never found New den intimidating its nothing on the old Den now that was intimidating especially after the play offs

I think it looks quite nice tbh.

Bizarre ! iv'e always thought to myself you could see people in their kitchens at Luton's ground as you walked in to the away end but put it down to a few too many shandies , it seems i didn't beer dream it after all .

I noticed these plans the other week and it makes sense why Jones chose to manage a club with a plan and ambition. Two consecutive promotions will be a great achievement for them and I am sure they will do well in the Championship under his management..

Hats off to them I say.
