King Power Stadium to become 'unique' nine-hole golf course this summer

[Wymsey]

Hope that any proceeds go to a local charity, but doubt it.

Sheffield United's Hillsborough?

 

 

I didn't realise the London Stadium belonged to West Ham either? 

 

Though it wouldn't surprise me if they even benefited from this scheme. They don't appear to have to pay much for the use of the stadium!

 

But back to the golf package. Despite how shite it appears to be, no doubt there will be corporate interest spending their accounts on a day of "entertainment". Though one does wonder how long anyone would find pitching in to the penalty area from the Kop the slightest bit entertaining, before retiring to the bar?!

What a load of corporate pandering bollocks. 

That has no effect on anyone else, and will bring in much needed funds, if people want to pay silly amounts of money to do this who cares.

More divots on the pitch.

Why do you doubt it goes to charity, the owners have and are exceptionally generous at giving, personally I'd be happy if they gave the proceeds to the staff who work there as a bonus, or put it towards some of the overheads or even in the transfer kitty.

So when someones yelling "four" it won't be because we've scored four goals!.  We need to get out of the relegation bunker first! We are playing sub Par at the moment. Why not make it crazy golf after the crazy season weve had!.

The open faced club, the sand wedge

Why are people so up in arms about this

 

Bit more money into the club while the stadium isn't used for football. 

 

I'm sure the club isn't setting the prices. Am I right in thinking King Power aren't even organising it? The organisers are literally just using the stadium?

9 holes..

 

It was only a few summers back it was all about 1.

 

Some may argue this was the catalyst to us wining the title. Who knows what the 9 holes will do for us this time? 🤷‍♂️

[The Year Of The Fox]

I don’t even understand the concept

 

Are you teeing off from the stand, trying to hit a green?

 

Or is it a 9 hole Par 3 course all around the pitch area?

 

I’m not paying £75 to find out, I know

[coolhandfox]

Club is just hiring out the Stadium as a venue hardly earth shattering.

[Jack1993]

I think it looks pretty cool. My one caveat is that I hope I’ll be playing in a premier league stadium rather than a championship one

It's all a bit unclear, but I think it's basically a glorified driving range. With "9 holes" you could potentially chip onto. Maybe a similar concept to Topgolf in Watford. Whatever it is - £75 for 18 balls is basically just over £4 a shot. Which is basically daylight robbery. 

[blue blood]

This has to be a JT initiative, hey Top why don’t we give people a chance to nail 9 holes for £250. 😂😂😂

[Shane]

Can you bring your own golf balls? Can’t wait to tee off this c*nt into row z
