In terms of what location we should be playing our footy at:
59% said we need to move to another ground close to Loftus Road, preferably Wood Lane.
41% said we should stay at Loftus Road but try and improve it.
Absolutely nobody said they would like a ground share agreement with Chelsea or Fulham and nobody thought that Loftus Road as it is at the moment was satisfactory for Prem football.
I like both of the ideas: improving Loftus Road and moving to the BBC. However, i feel that a totally new stadium is the only way to really achieve the Champions League football that Flavio and Co. say they want.
Whilst i love Loftus Road an in a way would love to stay there i realise it would be unrealistic to anticipate Champion's league, or even Prem, football at Loftus Road.
Put simply, there are way to many improvements needed. The club shop is inadequate, the stands take way too long to empty, specifically Ellerslie which takes hours to clear after a game. Also, the leg room in Loftus Road is totally crap for a decent sized bloke and this would have to be improved upon at a new stadium. Finally, we need more than 19,000 seats and quite a bit more at that. How are we going to get these extra seats ... two tiered Ellerslie etc. I am not certain Loftus Road, as a building, has the potential to hold as many people as necessary.
Therefore, i agree with the majority of voters. We need a new stadium. BBC seems like a good plan as it is close to Loftus Road and won't alienate any of our fans.
Cheers to everyone that voted!
