Not quite sure i'd feel that comfortable surrounded by a bunch of male football supporters with bloody hard on's !

Pretty sure we were for much of the league winning season, and definitely on the Champions League nights

Padded seats to stand in front of. Like at Brighton, Arsenal & MK.

 

 

[Bunyip]

 1  .Toilets that are simple to get in and out of without having to navigate wastebins and paper towel dispensers that make it impossible for more than one person to get in or out at the same time 2  .  A bigger concourse with more outlets that actually know what they are doing and can serve decent food and quickly and, 3. Stop giving free beer away because it only makes number 1. even worse.

A blow up dinosaur storage area

An enlarged lost and found

 

[Mark - Reading]

A new stadium built behind the east stand two teir with boxes restaurant around the centre with an atmospheric dome roof to keep the sound in with some character so when you see a picture you think “it’s leicester” not ah it’s any other bowl with blue seats ideally the original bede island design 

 

A railway station with trains running Loughborough to Burton 

 

Safe standing bars 

 

bridge over the canal 

 

Multi Story Car parks for 5000 cars 

 

45,000 seats 

 

TV Screens in all 4 corners or both ends spurs style built into the roof 

 

Regular champions league football ?

 

i can dream

Multiples of three:

1. 10-15K more seats
2. Rail seating "ready" area for when the government gets its bloody act together
3. A second tier added on all around the stadium, with hospitality all around the top and the design kept consistent.
4. Expand the surface area; make the concourse twice as big with "flat" entry to the vomitoriums, or an open concourse to the tiers
5. Redesign on the East Stand facia, making it look as good as the West stand. 
6. Improved approach on Raw Dykes Road. Knock down the electricity place and Staples shops opposite.
7. Pedestrianise RDR & Filbert Way. Make the whole of the normal road accessible during the week but a proper closed off & pleasant public area on matchdays
8. "Access road" for staff, parking fans & team buses etc.
9. Extra food/drink/shop facilities everywhere.
10. Turn the Old Filbert Street site into a fan village, with a scaled down replica of the old stadium that people can watch holograms of classic matches at. This will be part of the fan village.
11. Statue of Wes & Claudio with the PL trophy, or SOME recognition that it actually happened.
12. Clear the banks of the River Soar and make it accessible to the public as a beauty spot with food & drink facilities.
13. Make it easier for us to intimidate the away team bus ala Liverpool.
14. Monorail to town.
15. Open Ivanhoe line and make tickets free for match ticket holders

Not surprised with this. Have you got a link to the article?

No I couldn't find it. I'll have a look again, it was around the time of the Seville game away last year.

More chance there is a statue of the owners lifting the trophy with the dead thai king

Wolves have nothing like the catchment we have.

I beg to differ on this. 

 

Having lived in the area I've seen how far it stretches. Even into the Welsh border counties.

The first statue to be put up will be of the owners, that I'm sure of. 

[stripeyfox]

 

Have posted this before, but this would ideal....

 

 

[sixthswan]

1. Indoor Arena

2. Railway station. Trains can reverse to overcome the south only alignment.

3. Statue outside new museum

The area may now whats in it.

Villa

Blues

West Brom

Walsall

Port Vale

Stoke

Shrewsbury

Coventry

 

Four of those clubs within 20 miles and all within 34 miles. Then in the north of the catchment area and not much further for some to travel we have the two minuscule manc clubs. Oh and if you don't mind your wheel trims being stolen liverpool.

[sylofox]

A huge 5k capacity fans bar home ticket only access. With Concourse access and microphones playing the atmosphere into the ground.

 

Would double up for functions and corporate use at other times.

Instead of a dedicated LCFC train station, which I think is a great idea, how about a tram system in Leicester?

I know it may sound absurd and quite the investment, but I love trams.

[Leicester69]

The first post in this thread was spot on...remember the "wrap" around the top of the stadium when it was first opened, scenes from every era...loved it, much better than the bland KP crap we have now!

 

Safe standing is a no brainer to all but those in charge of the game at the FA...fair play to WBA for attempting to introduce a trial at the Hawthorns, shame on those who rejected it, there is a disconnect between Fans/authorities and it is getting wider by the day.

 

A museum (albeit relatively small) to celebrate the clubs heritage, tradition and achievements would be fantastic...but with the current owners it would become a shrine to them, a previous poster was spot on, we are becoming King Power FC, and losing the identity of LCFC.

 

And there must be some sort of statue...preferably of Wes/Ranieri...not the owners!

Nice idea in principle ...   but if it means digging the fookin roads up for the next 5 years, you can stick that idea where the sun don't shine ...   

[Countryfox]

A combined Burger King and real ale bar with nice comfy seating and a few plasmas on the wall showing Sky and BT sports ...       

 

Just in case there is anyone that might like that sort of thing ...    

[Countryfox]

With a nice barmaid ...  (or barman ...   black, white yellow, brown, green, transgender, LGBW, RPG ... ) ...   whatever ...   as long as 'its' got nice t*ts ...
