Olympic Stadium picture thread

[HammerMan2004]

I wasn't sure whether to just stick these in the current thread, but figured they might get lost amongst the posts today...

So how about a thread dedicated some pictures of the future home of our club...

Can someone help me?, im trying to find the Olympic Stadium on google maps, street view, with no luck. Apparently the address is:

103-113 Marshgate Ln, Stratford.

[Kent Bubble Blower]

Google Maps is probably well out of date do I doubt it appears yet.

Is the correct answer.

[saludo de carlitos]

Ah Ok, cheers anyway lads.

[m-h]

Not just the stadium, but the whole park will be brilliant, for the Olympics. After that...........remains to be seen.

Don't forget, our Meccano bolt together stadium will have a nice cloth wrapper around the outside to keep in all the snuggly goodness.

I'd like that wrapper to be like miami-hammer's avatar (up two posts).

Stade De France - Honestly how much thought would this have taken.

Cram & Ovett would have known this!!!!!

Webcam, I think it looks amazing and will only get more spectacular.

The Icelandics mentioned having retractable seating when they first suggested taking over the Olympic Stadium just after they bought the club. The stadium was still in its planning phase and nothing had been decided back then. However, the OPLC said at the time that they weren't even entertaining thoughts of a football club taking over, hence why we have the stadium design we do now.

Also, really highlghts just how far away the pitch will be from the seats.

[HammerMan2004]

Agreed Saludo. Whack a bigger roof on there and without changing the seats you've got a pretty special ground.

One thing I have wondered is the dugouts...I'm assuming they are where that blue thing is on the ground, but how do the people sitting behind them see the football? See-through dugouts? Or do we actually dig a hole for the subs and coaching team to sit in?
