1) is that really your stadium?




2) why the hell are they putting totteringham on TV more than Arsenal, especially considering how well liked the gunners are in America.

It just looks like it's two halves of completely different stadiums put together.

Or they were going to make it awesome and covered but ran out of money half way through.

They want to finish it one day but I'm told there's a lot of resistance because they would have to knock down a bunch of historical buildings right next door. It holds 52k so for now it's not a big deal but one day they may have to build a whole new stadium to bump up to 70k or so unless they get the issue resolved. Sad.

Doesn't look like a drawing to me.

It's pretty obvious that they expanded on the sides that they could but were restricted on 2 of the sides due to roads and close buildings. That explains the enormous grandstands on the west and north sides. LINK

I mean I understand the reasoning behind it, doesn't make the thing look any less odd.

I know all about weird stadium expansions. Here is an aerial view of Bobby Dodd Stadium:
