I work in Trafford Park about 10 minutes walk from The Swamp and between the stadium and where I am there is - somewhat worryingly - a fair bit of unused land. There's also a huge chunk of land owned by them right opposite our works that is currently used for match-day parking. I think they could conceivably slap a new stadium on there and while that's being built they could keep playing at The Swamp. I suppose it all depends on how much they're prepared to spend but that would seem to be the most realistic and least disruptive option.
It's that loss of parking that I struggle to see them dealing with, if they use the same site to build a new stadium whilst remaining at the scaffold. They are already lazy buggers who park everywhere around the stadium (peel Moat,is it?) causing chaos, before heading towards the M60/M56/M6 to get back to London.
They'd have to instigate some sort of park n ride to deal with the chaos, a specific club bus service from the suburbs... I wonder where that idea comes from...
But I can't see the concept of sharing personal space on a bus would go down well with the prawn sandwich brigade.
The logistics of safely marshalling 74000 supporters through a further reduced set of narrowed approaches, with a large adjoining section out of bounds as it's a massive building/storage site? We appear to be doing quite well with the work around our stadium, I suppose, but its a far more open area in general?
Unless the additional space (less stadium building+works), is capable of being a massive car park with walking access to the scaffold, it's difficult to see how the already cramped stadium can further deal with being squeezed?
