Second pic works for me.

Millenium stadium is probably my favourite stadium, certainly in the UK. It even has a slight Kop feel as the Glanmor's Gap section breaks up the symmetry. The other is Dortmund's ground, Signal Iduna Park, formerly the Westfalen Stadium. Capacity of 25000 standing in their 'kop' stand. 
Well, I don't know what it is, but there's definitely something going on upstairs

Indeed it is and one of the highlights of the 2001 jaunt was seeing these wonderful stadiums, those two were my favourites, the Nou Camp and Porto were nice but Cardiff and Dortmund retained the atmosphere better than any ground apart from Anfield I thought.

The sad thing about the Borrusia stadium is you wonder if we could've had something similar if Anfield had more room around it and obviously more investment over time.

It's a wonderful stadium and some of the videos I've seen are spine-tingling for anybody interested in football.

It's a good point Armin, reminds me of what the mancs have done with there ground.

I can't even begin to imagine the atmosphere we'd have on a Euro night on the Kop if it were that size with that many people on it.

Our Kop end is great, of course, but can you imagine how much better it would be if it had the corners filled in like Dortmunds?  :o

fantastic ground , very intimate too , that Glanmoor Gap thing is infact a remaining section from the old Arms Park , great venue but not better than HKS design, no way

The design in the opening post is awful.

Looks like the Emirates with a roller coaster over it.


The HKS design is superb.

It's just a shame it will probably never be built.

Looks like they have seaters from a roller coaster at Dortmund with those metal bars that come down lol. Not sure that would help the atmosphere when a goal comes in although it would sort out all those glory hunters leaving the ground early :)

Never realised just how steep the rakes were in the Dortmund stands ( pic 4 ) must be close to the legal limit, and probably wouldn't be allowed in the new stadiums.

It's too small and can't be suitably expanded, we're losing millions in revenue every season we stay there.

The Westfalenstadion would be the way to go in keeping with our traditions. it even make the original HKS design look shite, with no gaps either side of the kop the Westfalenstadion is sooo intimidating.  i for one would be so proud if we had a staduim like that.

Im sure the cost of the original design will have tumbled now with the price of raw materials dropping like a stone.  These 2 fuckwits might have actually saved us money in the long-term with their clueless approach!

its shite with its big gappy corners.  the Westfalenstadion is much much more intimidating than that effort. and has a far bigger kop.
