I like the outside of the stadium but inside is just another identikit stadium

Looks like a souless box to me.

Fair enough, I think it’s quite unique, especially the south stand. For me stadiums like Arsenal and West Ham are soulless as they have no character

It’s very reminiscent of German stadiums

'Multi-million-pound sum' and Leeds United 53,000-seat Elland Road redevelopment

Angus Kinnear has provided the latest update on Leeds United's planned redevelopment of Elland Road with a 53,000-seat capacity expected

“The good news about the stadium is, for the first time in the six-and-a-half years or seven years I've been involved in the club, we've got some real traction behind the stadium,” he said. “The 49ers committed a multi-million-pound sum on putting together a project team which has environmentalists, transport planners, a design team, structural engineers and mechanical engineers.

“That team now is meeting two or three times a week with a view to submitting the planning application. There's going to be an announcement very shortly about that and within that, you'll get a degree of granularity in the plans around the stadium capacity.

“At the moment it’s looking like it's going to be 53,000, that's the most economic number. Within that, you'll also get a sense of the broad split between, which hasn't been decided yet, GA (general admission) and hospitality seats, but there'll be a significant GA increase as well as an increase in premium seats on that side as well, because the West Stand doesn't really have any workable hospitality as it stands.”

Those hospitality seats, which cost more to buy and come with food or bar access at various levels, will be critical in paying for the redevelopment over the long term at United. Kinnear does, though, insist general admission berths will also form a sizeable proportion of the new seats being installed.

“There's no hiding from the fact increasing the number of premium seats will be part of the plan and that's why all of the planning applications currently underway are for the West Stand and the North Stand,” he said. “The vision, at the moment, is the North Stand wouldn't have any hospitality at all and the West Stand would have an increase in hospitality to fund.

If it ends up looking like that, it will be the nicest thing in Luton.
