Could you imagine the lift it would give us playing a CL Quarter final at the new lane vs Atletico/Bayern/Roma/Ajax/Paris oh my God! Goosebumps just thinking about it

With hindsight, I possibly didn't think my post through properly before typing!!You have seen the bleedin' massive super-sophisticated slidey-out pitch though, right?
Spring is almost here...
What’s it saying?
What’s it saying?
Thought we were only going to have 3 or 4 NFL games at the new stadium? Seems a little extravagant to build NFL changing rooms for that few games.
When do we think we can expect an announcement re the two test events? I think the March date is slipping away.
Getting a CL QF in there would be ecstasy
Probably good for us if Palace get through. Us being ready for its original date seems unlikely, best hope is if we can push it back a bit.Still 2 months until the Champions League quarter finals to be fair. 9th/10th April for the first leg. and the second leg is 16th/17th.
I imagine we'll hear some news within the next 2 weeks, I think our first game is dependent on how Brighton and Palace do in the FA Cup so maybe just waiting for those games. Unfortunately, it's likely both Brighton and Palace get through.
£50? It's that what NFL tickets go for over there? Pretty sure the average ticket price this year was over $100 USD.2 a season for 10 years isnt it ? Meaning at least twenty games , 20 games with 60,0000 tickets per match equals 1.2 million tickets that can probably be flogged at £50 per ticket if appetite for NFL games at Wembley are anything to go by grossing £60 mil in tickets alone before you even they into catering and merch and that's a couple of matches a year , then when you factor in the brand exposure in America through NFL tie ups leading to more merchandise sold in America and greater brand value leading to much more Lucrative sponsorship deals , the cost of a couple of changing rooms will become a pittance after a couple of years this is huge business and that's without reaching the ultimate aim of a full-time NHL franchise based in London occupying the stadium.
