Indeed, they even gave some bullshit about the Ricoh being the same design because of the panelling on the outside!
The fantasy stadium.
What we will end up with.
Where we should be.
Was utter madness, but then so was building a team of the likes of Hadji and Keane at that time, let alone the likes of Nedved, Van Nistlerooy, Jarni, etc who we were supposedly involved with.
Richardson was mental.
The irony is, the original design probably made more sense moving than what we ended up with, as the whole point was it allowed the stadium itself to be used for many other things, wasn't just the football... if the club had moved out of *that* there'd have been a lot less anguish from a stadium management company!
But in the end we got something just a little bit better, and we didn't even own the bugger.
Genuinely think Richardson less mental than most we had recently, as at least he had a vision. Sure, it failed, but if instead of ousting him we'd gone into admin, we'd have still owned a stadium site, and had an option to buy back the stadium we were playing in...
Built in gold as well true Richardson style
Yeah Shortsighted council cutting the budget back.
Would have matched Kens Tan.
Sources within CBRE are stating the Club have primed the press with materials for tomorrow, that will disclose generic Stadium Designs, although as yet they have no land to sit the stadium on. They will also make any land purchase conditional on attaining planning, which will prove a tall order, so for those awaking early to listen to Shane, do not hold your breath.
I seem to recall an "artists impression" of the Ricoh unveiled by Richardson with a retractable roof and sliding pitch. It did not end up that way though. With this lot we will end up with jumpers as goalposts!

great post, have a good day pal. I have a feeling you may be drowning your sorrows though. Like you say, all in the life of being a ccfc fan.Good morning all. Excuse me for my incoherent posts later. On an all day bender on works do today
Whatever comes out today could be good news even if we don't think so at the time. Whatever it is could force the other sides hand. Had enough of the guessing, silly arguing, point scoring, being in Northampton, secrecy........in fact just about everything the last few seasons.
Looking forward to 6am. Will either be celebrating or drowning my sorrows, but as usual being a CCFC fan will take it on the chin. We are used to that. Peace to all X
