...plus we can give the West Ham fans a good soaking before we let them sit in our new stadium.

Memories I got thrown out of there for fighting back in the 70's v Chelsea. :whistle:

you wasn't the one that threw the kung fu star was you? as an 11 year old we went to stand in the paxton, but my sister being a short arse decided to treat us to the enclosure, 20 minutes later it turned out to be a very wise choice;)

Nah not me mate, it was in the good old days when you could by a ticket at the turnstile, got there late with my mate and ended up at the back of the Paxton next to the Chelsea fans. Some bright spark thought it would be a good idea to have a race with police dogs, one Chelsea, one Spurs. The Spurs dog won and all hell broke loose, because I was at the back and easy to get hold of some burly copper grabbed me while I was defending myself {honest your Honour ] and threw me out.

Got back in though :LOL:

was that the game that sent Chelsea down, and helped keep us up?

as a young 11 yr old I didn't get involved in any of the naughty stuff, though after a season and a bit, my sister found out i would use words that wasn't quite appropriate for such a young lad (in those days anyway) her face when i started shouting F off you F'ing Wanker:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

god stop knocking it down please, and put all the standing up back please

Kind of think it will be a shame that we won't just see a brand new stadium and all will be a little piecemeal. It kind of spoils the surprise. I know I'm also being picky but I don't expect to see any cladding or even fascia at all. It will look more like a giant multi story car park - just concrete frames imo.
If you don't want to know the result, look away now...

Not quite right. The North-east corner is being demolished as they want to start building there so the whole basement gets done together. Surely they'll continue building NWHL in that corner too
The guy who created it said:

Not sure what the plan is for the NE corner (as we haven't had much info on how much work will be done in that area) up to the last home game so, I have shown it boarded off and tarmacked over for now, until the old lady is finally laid to rest! :-(

I sure cant wait to start getting the main structure up just because only then we will see its vastness. The groundworks and lower levers are boooring haha. Seriously though you can see from the live feed that its really starting to take shape now.
I wonder how long before we see the steels going in roughly?

So damn exciting to see and im sure we are the envy if many many other clubs and fan bases around the world.

I wonder how our build fairs against others currently going on in europe? I wish i could see them all side by side!
