I'll admit that I'm not a huge fan of that weird executive box bit myself.  But is this that much worse than what's already there?



compared with



I think it looks slightly less shit, personally.

Kinda reminds me of pictures of Norwich's old ground, The Nest.

I think there's other images, not renders, that make it look much better.

Yeah, I'm not really sure what the fuss is. It won't be for the likes of me, anyway.

They are doing these 'enhancements' to get over 50k for the Euros?
Maybe once that's out the way, they will go for a new stadium.

It'll bring back flashbacks to Sexual and his errant younger days and debauched ways.

Genuinely, that looks like the sort of cheap shite Ellis would have put up. It's properly awful.

What in the blue hell is that?!  It looks like the tiny stand at Vicarage Road.
I actually think thats an act of architectural vandalism on our beloved Villa Park. We need to let the club know we dont want this crap tacked onto the side of another piece of crap that Doug Ellis installed.

Trinity.
I wasn't saying the whole Trinity was a piece of crap. I meant that little block of maisonettes with balconies tacked onto the side of it. I sit in the Trinity and its a good stand although the exterior does remind me of the back end of a shopping mall.

The Trinity, from the pitch, is a fine looking stand, it is big and imposing.

Tacking that sort of shite on for, what, a few hundred seats, is horrible. it just looks cheap and shit, like the sort of thing you'd see at some fucking dump like Molineux or Selhurst Park, it says "fuck what it looks like, we need the dough, so tack it on".

And yes, the current situation there looks shit, too, this just looks even shitter.
