Knowing my luck I would end up fitting out the bog cubicles nowhere near the east stand in a far flung building

So ‘See that block of flats, I did some of the toilet doors in there, I did’ wouldn’t have quite the same ring to it then?

[Jakemoore]

Wow. This is just amazing. Unfortunately for me it brings out a few emotions like everything LCFC related these days. I am overwhelmed with happiness and excitement that my club are growing in to a European super power and in the proper, ethical way too. But I wish my dad was here to see it all. He passed away last December and so missed the FA cup win, the opening of the training ground and now this. It is down to him that I support this wonderful club and I literally thank him every day because it would have been so easy to have followed Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool etc. 
 

Exciting times ahead once again 😍💙

I understand the need to promote green transport and encourage people to walk or bike etc but for some of us that have to travel from Skegness after work for an evening game we barely make it on time so wouldn't be able to park and walk. I just don't think 525 car parking spaces is enough for 40k fans and don't forget 220 rooms they will all want a space and it says some of the multi storey will be for hotel. Remove the residential and put another multi storey car park in and it would be a lot better.

[Crazy Kop Corner]

I think it'll stop the majority of us anchoring after Filbert Street once and for all 

 

These guys have serious vision. Incredible. 

[Leicester_Loyal]

These owners are actually ****ing unbelievable, we owe them so much. 

[Spudulike]

It's all very well but what's going to happen to my brick?

I'll be travelling from Newquay, so don't feel too hard done by

I like it but I just don't get why the bubble has to be blue TBH. Red would have made more of a statement.

 

Geeez the state of some of you nitpickers! Enjoyyyyyyy

I doubt there was ever any intention to increase the number of parking spots for fans with this build. Maybe in the future they might build additional car parking across the road and on the old Filbert St car park.

 

"The hotel and business centre will be served by dedicated parking and the multi-storey car park."

I will always love and miss Filbert St, and a little bit of me will always wish everything that’s happened over the last twenty years could have happened there, even as I know perfectly well that all the good stuff has only happened because of the new ground (King Power would never have bought the club without it). But Filbert St will always be home to me, and it not being there any more will always make me a bit sad.

OH HECK this looks seriously cool the owners done it again ! Seriously proud right now more than ever.

[WinslowFox]

 Wow. This looks incredible. I still can’t quite believe this is all actually happening. I feel like I’ve been in a dream since my Daughter was born and we won the Prem in the same year. Thank you to our magnificent magical owners. Exciting times once again.

[VLC86]

The white font on the shirt has left such a bitter taste I’m not sure I’ll enjoy this.

[Silver surfer 1]

So happy for the expansion, we deserve it.  But feel like the stadium looks flimsy and recycling bag like, I might warm to it . 

[Fox92]

Looks superb.

 

Hopefully the first row of second tier all have flags draped down.

****ing hell this looks class.

 

Yeah, but why have they sacked Brendan?!? 🤷

[Wrighty22]

Can't find any faults with the design, looks amazing, will massively improve he match day experience as well as boosting the local economy. I would like to see more details plans, such as the designs and colours of the new buildings. 

The EON building looks so out of place there. Do we assume we still haven't purchased this and that we'll add something there if we do buy it. I'd have thought the car park would have been better there and not having traffic going around the site.

The car park will not be for the football. It will be all for the hotel etc. 

[BridgfordFox]

I wonder what will happen to existing season ticket holders in the East Stand - I've got a great seat towards the back of J1 that I'd be really disappointed to lose! (Or be charged 3x the price for!)

[kingfox]

Felt slightly emotional watching that vid.

 

We have come a long way since having to watch Ryan McGivern get torn apart by Ivan Sproule on a Tuesday night.

 

What these owners have done in the past 10 years is nothing short of incredible, stadium expansion and a multi purpose events arena is exactly what Leicester needs.
