Not that muchThere's plenty of leg room if you're standing

Plenty? Are you a hobbit?
I imagine footspace is more of a concern if he is.
True that. I have nothing against Hobbits having said that. Or Inuits.

The old SC Freiburg stadium used to have Topless Girls playing volley ball
The girls were in the Freibad, public open air pool and play area, which was overlooked by the stadium.
Fans cheered every time a player played a ball, everybody laughed and as soon as the sun came out so were the girls.
The rebuilt stadium blocked this view. oh well.
St. Pauli is a very special club.
If you don't love them, you're a wanker.
I disagree. This is a club that only exists because of the "kult" status it has. It was nearly bankrupt and relied on it's fans and sympathisers to bail it out. And all they got in return was a t-shirt. This is not the "Against Modern Football" flagship club people make it out to be.
They have some nice principles, but I think a lot of the publicity is an act to show how "different" they are to other clubs. They play Blur's "Song 2" after they've scored ffs. They play music after they have scored a goal? Surely their fans should be vocal enough to not need this? They sing "You'll Never Walk Alone"? Oh how original.
This is actually a good idea. People will 100% spend money on this and even though it won't raise that much in the grand scheme of things, every little helps.
Something they did at Norwich when they built their new stand is let people engrave their name or a message into the brickwork for a fee. Simple methods of creating income and giving a personal feel to the ground, a sense of belonging if it must be.
I donated €€€€s to help save St Pauli and I have the tee shirt.

Other way 'round, sonny, other way 'round
This is a club that has a kult status because of the way it exists, by the skin of its teeth.

Um, yes it is, totaly. Pauli is one of the only clubs to have an A1 police rating for traveling fans
When HSV played in the Volkspark, a Pauli chant was
"Lieber eine Verlierer sein, als ein übele Volksparkschwein"
"Better be a loser than be an evil Volkspark pig"
"You'll Never Walk Alone"? Lots of clubs sing it. Red Scum don't own it.
Shalke 04 used to be a kult club but that's vanished over the last decade or so.
All about the big bucks now but they do have a beer pipeline from the Veltins Brewery to the Ground.
Trouble is, it hardly ever works.
Sorry for the sensible answer but here it goes:
I want the new stadium to have a large enough capacity that it puts us on a level playing field with the elite.
Simple. Obvious, but key.
I seen plans that don't even bring us level with some stadiums in the Orem which seems totally pointless to me.
A design that allows for future expansion is also important cause it's no point coming in line with the "bigger boys" only for them to all expand a few years down the line and us being left needing another full rebuild.

Dyson hand driers.
A cellar for cheese & wine would be nice, maybe some cooked meats , I'm not sure about the meats as yet. I'm just throwing ideas out there .
I fucking love them - the airblade ones especially.
They make a lot of noise though, may well drown out the atmosphere.
God I remember that. Didn't they get in bother because it had no black faces on, and they had to black-up some of them? Ironic seeing their reliance on ian Wright those days...and That Mural was more atmospheric than Highbury!!
