Yet again the FA believe that the World ends at teh M25.
No place for Leicester or Hull.

16 December 2009 at 8:52 pm #15416Fairly disappointing, though not surprising, that probably the most hated football club in the country are down for a World Cup match. Still, when were the FA ever in touch with ground roots opinion?

4 stadiums in the north west are proposed – 4 stadiums in the yorkshire/north east region so why not 4 in the south west ? it is the most densley populated area of the country
and the fact that the the MK stadium is a blank canvas with a constructed area for 45000 seats is something to do with it

I’m sure you meant South East and I agree with your post.
I have to confess that I’m biased, as I live in Milton Keynes. It is a good stadium and, as you say, it’s a blank canvas with an as yet undeveloped upper tier. A big advantage is it’s right by the A5 dual carriageway, is only 10 minutes from the M1 (even on match days) and has a mainline rail station.
When I can’t get to Wigan for a game, I’ll go and watch other teams and I’ve been to Stadium MK a few times. Couple of weeks ago I went and on the back of four straight defeats they got 9,000 on against Yeovil. Now I live about 4 miles from the ground and I left home at 2.30, drove there, parked up, got in and had a pint before kick off.
That’s a big part of why they’ve been chosen.

sorry i did mean south east
17 December 2009 at 1:08 am #15434No need to say sorry. Wasn’t trying to correct you.
The one I can’t quite understand is Plymouth. It’s miles from anywhere, but I guess they need something in the far South West, rather than just Bristol. -
