+xSo a thread about stadium design ends up morphing into a discussion/argument about ancient Greeks and Romans, Greeks in WW2, and whether the game should be called football or soccer ................ Monolithic wog does what monolithic wog does best.

You know. This is exactly where the stadium should be for a Coolangatta/Byron bay team. Get the southern region involved. No idea how you fit a whole stadium there, there is some park land on the other side.

Segra Field Segra Field is a soccer-specific stadium in Leesburg, Virginia and the home of Loudoun United FC of the USL Championship and Old Glory DC of Major League Rugby. 5k seats 15mil cost for the whole complex Using an imagined Tasmanian example both footall and rugby can push Hobart council and state gov to assist with funding along with interested investors. Could also be an option for second Adelaide, Brisbane team or even the WU shit showcould provide a neat little atmosphere similar to Dolphin stadium. growth potential to 7k which would be a good boutique size with corporate behind one goal and increased seating behind the other. Matildas, youth internationals, visiting A-League or home A-League team ,local club finals and or visiting Rugby teams plus concerts could make it worthy to Gov   https://vimeo.com/350746520 good vid of the stadium https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xl1n4raA4g game day

+x+xI was talking with a mate in Thailand recently about Chang Arena, the home of Buriram United, and was astonished to find that it only cost US$12-17m to build, whilst the construction time was only 254 days! Such a good stadium, a dream away trip. I've been to some awesome stadiums in Thailand, and I've been to some... not so good ones :laugh: The atmosphere is always so enjoyable, and that's the key thing. There's plenty more around the country that I want to tick off, whilst I'd also like to see a few of the other stadiums in the region that look quite good too. Got a few friends that are playing in Cambodia atm, so I'd like to get over and watch them play when restrictions allow me to.

Unfortunately construction is just so damn expensive in this country, and that's what will [probably] hold back teams from deciding to build their own stadiums. I'm really impressed with some of the designs that I've seen in this thread, and the FK Krasnodar stadium is magnificent imo. Most A-League teams really only need a 20k [maximum] capacity for a lot of their games, and if they have a game with significant demand: there's plenty of stadiums within each state where the game could be moved to. I was talking with a mate in Thailand recently about Chang Arena, the home of Buriram United, and was astonished to find that it only cost US$12-17m to build, whilst the construction time was only 254 days! I commented that a stadium like that would take 3-5 years to build in Australia, and cost upwards of $200m to build. It's a truly magnificent stadium, but I won't be able to get back there for a while yet unfortunately.

Nice to see a bear in the wild! Cost $8.8m CAD in 2018, which is virtually the same as AUD.

I remember reading about Empire Field. Always thought it was a good way to go.
My only worry would be how they hold p long term. But as a start. I think they are perfect!

Here's an example from the article above of a club getting their decisions about their stadium really, really right: Sacramento Republic FC's Papa Murphy's Park: 11.5k seats, only $3m USD in 2014!    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmEeT4pZqeU&ab_channel=SacramentoRepublicFCAfter playing USL (second division) games on an artificial college gridiron field inside an athletics track, they moved to their own 11.5k seat no-frills modular football-specific venue, but despite the lack of gold-plated facilities the fans came to watch the actual football (who'd have thought?) and they sold out virtually all their games for several seasons creating their own atmosphere and culture, eventually earning themselves a spot in the MLS, and (much like Victory being rewarded by the state government for our early crowds with AAMI Park) they've attracted investment and local government concessions to build this 20k beauty for when they commence play in the top tier. Proof you don't need geodesic domes, craft breweries, or whatever else developers can think up to pad the bill: football fans just want a place to watch the football.

+x+xSo a thread about stadium design ends up morphing into a discussion/argument about ancient Greeks and Romans, Greeks in WW2, and whether the game should be called football or soccer ................ Yep better make sure every single thread on here ends up being a discussion about muh heritage. Cant lay this one one me cobber, Mr Pickles went down the historical rabbit hole.. We can include everyones heritage if you want, I guess most of our fore fathers came here on a boat of some description.(eccept of course our most recent migrants) Some peddled over on canoes 10 thousand years ago, some sat on the deck clutching their few possesions waiting to start a new life whilst others were chained down below deck and fed bread and water.

Unfortunately true. Just need to look at who the instigator was. I'm still holding my hopes on a Roar announcement soon on a new / refurbished stadium, but not holding my breath.

+x+xLowy wanted to promote a mainstream feel about our code. A greater acceptance meant the likelihood of increasing public interest, increased corporate and advertiser’s commitments, including that of the media, all come on board. It worked Mission Accomplished eh? The mission is to keep growing the code, popularize it and allow it to prosper on it's own accord. It's been much healthier in the last 15 years than ever before in it's history. But no, still a way to go to reach its full potential.

Nothing wrong with calling it soccer. My kids call it football. I grew up with soccer and interchange between the 2 depending on who I talk to.
I disagree. the word "soccer" has a stigma attached to it in this country. its associated with the negative side of the game. Its also the choice word of the bogans who have no understanding of the game. Soccer negative?? It has always been called soccer in this country mate, only after Lowy's little refresh in 2005 did it change because, in the FFA's way of thinking they wanted to distance themselves from "old soccer"... I don't think anyone I know calls it Soccer in a negative way, its just what we have all grown up knowing the game as. I think the "new football" crowd are a little precious about this to be honest when there is no need to be.

+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+xThat’s all you need we need to look at Scotland for size of stadiums with a few exceptions victory and wsw and say Syd fc all the rest around 10k stadiums as that is all we are going to ever fill, the glory days are over in terms of people going to the stadiums Is that Tarneit?? No mate THE "Western Wembley" is going to be amazing when it is built, exactly as promised and to schedule. Revolutionary AND groundbreaking, it is going to change the face of soccer in this country... Ooop sorry, forgot its not even called soccer anymore its football now becuase the millenials like it as they can pretend they are in England and on the set of "Green Street" Oi oi.... It is “ Football “ all around the world, bar maybe a couple of rogue nations. Their is also a hint in “ FIFA “. Imagine having a crack at people calling the game "football" on a football forum. So pathetic. Yeah well this is the Dickhead known as "Monoethnic Social Club", South Melbourne Hellas invented football remember. I don't know of anywhere in England where they call it soccer, Mono again sprouting his FACTS on us. He is about as credible as a Greek War Hero. Wow, the hate is really strong with this little pickle... Touch racist there little fella but I guess the truth comes out in the end eh? No hate, just feel sorry for you. No racism there either, do you know what racist means? You have posted many racist replies on this forum yourself. Yeah I know exactly what racist means little pickle... Im about as credible as a Greek War Hero Remember? Hence why I don't believe you. That's not racist it's true, I think the word cowards was used a lot in relation to WW2. Little pickle??? is that an insult? you are a knob. No, your name is pickles and I was being playful rather than insulting. Not sure you are up to speed with your history to be honest but if that's what you believe about Greek people then maybe you should hit the books a bit? You don't know me at all to presume to being playful so I take it as you being insulting. I have looked at History, that is not my belief of Greek people I know plenty and have had a lot to with Floreat Athena (A Greek Club, not being racist) in Perth, but there is popular opinion that they didn't make paint themselves in Glory when it came to WW2. OK, I will call you Mr Pickles then? Is that better? What a fascinating turn this conversation is taking. Can you please elaborate on the general feeling of Greek cowardice in WW2? That fat windbag Churchill himself claimed that "Heroes fought like Greeks" and even Stalin thanked the Greek people for delaying the Nazis enough in the summer of 41 to delay operation Barbarossa and ultimately give the Soviets enough time to prepare for war... what are you referring too? Lol. Did laugh at bringing WW2 into it. What next? Hmmm I think the next gambit might by "prevalence of homosexuality in Ancient Greece" hahahahahahha Not sure though, its certainly entertaining :) An old Greek man and an old Italian man are arguing. The Greek man says "Look, all I'm saying is that the Greeks invented everything the Romans get credit for!" The Italian says "Yes, may be, but the Romans improved it and made it useful!" The Greek man says "We invented the Democracy!" The Italian says "We realized the challenge of direct elections and the benefit of the legislature, and thus created the Republic!" The Greek man says "Yes, but we created beautiful architecture like the Parthenon!" The Italian says "And we improved your building techniques, and used them to create aqueducts and structures that stood for centuries longer!" The Greek man, frustrated, finally says "Ah, of course. But the Greeks, we INVENTED sex!" The Italian man says "That may be true, but we introduced it to women." Hahahah those know everyrhing Italians.... I think Nero introduced it to his horse as well.

Lol. Did laugh at bringing WW2 into it. What next?
