Re: IBC & Portman Road Redevelopment
Perhaps it's just a 'generic modern football stand' model, and it will look better when it's not 'blueprint blue', but I think I'd like to see something a bit more angular and in fitting with the rest of the stadium, and it's vintage/history. Maybe it's forward thinking to be more in fitting with other potential ground developments over the coming decades, but I think it looks like a bit of a suppository. I'm sure it's probably just a placeholder, as they have said they are in the very early stages of planning such a thing, who knows.

Agreed, definitely something more angular in East Angular, Ricco.

Re: IBC & Portman Road Redevelopment
Maybe the new shape is something for the future, could we eventually remodel the whole stadium on this concept further down the lines depending on how things progress?
I personally think its looks pretty cool.

Been a bit busy so not been on for a bit - great to come on and see this, the stand looks great I think!
How exciting (even if not happening a time soon). Although I do hate multi-storey car parks
