Looking at what is possible with the big two in Spain you'd want to follow suit & utilise the footprint if possible.
Wouldn't want it to look identikit but there's clear scope for something class leading at this point when we're likely to still take a few years to get it done. 100k - a Red Wall in the Stretty, could be magnificent if they just had an ounce of consideration for the game rather than the "match going experience". |

Can't be too hard in today's world to build around it and add onto it, can it? Or is the railway track going to halt anything like that?
If its possible, then add on to Old Trafford, state of the art, 100k seats/standing. If its not possible then we have to move with the times (but not end up like West Ham) and build something as close as possible with a stadium worthy of the history. Not looking like a UFO either. |

Would a redeveloped stadium on the same spot have to look the same? Just fix the roof and build the south stand higher to match the rest?
The stadium changed dramatically when the ends were expanded and the feeling of the original stadium changed. What's iconic to us is less so for people in their 60s. The large glass fronts and the roof supports are the prominent design features from the current incarnation. I can't say I'm that arsed about losing either. As long as the stadium is built on the same site I don't mind if they build again. There's little about the current one that is worth keeping. A new stadium would pay for itself and eventually provide a return on the investment. It would raise capacity and allow the area to host more events. Not really sure why it's a problem. It would be good for supporters, the club as a business and the team. |

C/O the Telegraph.
Apparently 'insiders have raised concerns about the prospect of getting into a situation where the club are throwing “good money after bad” if they attempt to expand the south stand and redevelop the other sides. “Ultimately you’ve still got a 1910 building,”. |
