I know our present location does have some drawbacks to the opportunities the WFCG offers, but with the right facilities in place (New stand along with a possible extension to the rear of the BC stand, I see no reason why the club cannot offer corporate hospitality for use during none match days. Add in the possibility of staging live events at the stadium also and the place can start earning its corn. But does losing out on having a Greggs open 7 days a week outweigh our history, location, iconic status (the ground not the club) etc?
Whilst having a stadium closer to the city centre does have some massive advantages, it also has disadvantages too. Trying to navigate through an already congested City Centre to get to the ground is bad enough with the stadium being down at Trent Bridge, but being a part of the City Centre will be an absolute nightmare. Don't forget that not all supporters actually live in Nottingham!
I have said it often, as have others, but for me, there is no sporting stadium that is more picturesque than the old girl.
My one change would be to kick the away fans out of the Bridgford End altogether, so we can generate louder singing and support to the side, as the Bridgford End does offer really good acoustics compared to other areas of the ground. Controversial? Just my opinion
