We're 6th. https://www.fourfourtwo.com/features/ranked-the-100-best-football-stadiums-grounds-britain-uk-england-scotland-wales

I'm sure if we moved to a nondescript bowl with great parking we'd soon jump up to No. 1.
It's a shame Levy's pride and joy is ranked below VP.
Personally I like Wham stadium and Seel park.

I like the picture on that article of our neighbours ground. The one that looks like a KKK convention.

I like the fact that Claggan Park home of "the worst football team in Britain" is ranked ahead of the Sty.

I really enjoyed reading that list.Theres a couple of curve balls in there. Craven Cottage fourth? I went there in the Championship and was not impressed at all. The "cottage" in the corner is a beautiful pice of architecture but that's about it. Unless you enjoy traipsing through a park after having your can of beer took off you. For me VP just needs a North stand upgrade and not just glass and concrete do something a bit special. I loved that they described us as aristocratic.

We're almost four years into the NSWE era and I still can't really pick a fault with them.

This window has been excellent. Very grateful that they came in and saved us and are now backing us.

Cheers Wes and Nassef.

What to do with the stadium is the next big challenge they have.  The squad we have should have zero risk of relegation and we don't break in to the Champions League with a 40,000 capacity stadium.  So redevelopment is needed and I hope they do it properly, not the way HDE vandalised the Trinity.

I'd imagine those who were questioning their commitment are having second thoughts now. A fit-for-purpose DM and this will have been a fantastic window.

I am delighted to be proved wrong.

Purslow said they were hoping to have something to announce soon a couple of months ago on plans for the stadium

Didn't he say that "plans" should be ready to submit by early Feb or early new year?

Let's face it, was it ever in doubt?

Yes, by a number of people on here and elsewhere.
I have always found this a bit baffling considering the way they have conducted themselves in pretty much every aspect of governance.
Maybe The Lerner and Payless experience has left some deep scars. But crikey you would have to go a long way to find better owners and custodians of a Football Club.

I wasn't suggesting that it wasn't questioned on here merely that it was a more than a bit daft to do so (as you allude to).
