Just think of all the trees chopped down for that, I thought we were fighting to save forests

Well it looks nice, but I'm not sure how practical it is. I'm surprised it got planning permission.

What absolute rubbish that stadium is. Totally un-environmentally friendly too.

There’ll be no car parking, as you can see. You have to park and ride 3 miles away, then get an electric monorail to the edge of this field and the rest of the way on foot.

They’re having a new range of pies - bamboo and onion, cabbage and garlic & elderflower, quorn and chicory.

I've heard by a 3rd party the directors of FGR have already met Greta n she's agreed to do the grand opening on match day


But its early negotiations so don't quote me

I shouldn’t need to answer that Paris. It’s obvious. I wonder if Greta will use another first class train ticket getting there?

The comments on this thread are eye-opening regards how ignorant the general public is about the environment. Either that or its another manifestation of people's rather odd phobia of vegetarians. Either way, bizarre.

The local paper are reporting FGR will be advising fans to park at Gloucester, get the train to Stonehouse and then a bus to the ground.

Best thing for those ridiculous travel ideas by fgr is that no away fans go.

It’s very environmentally friendly.
Knock down the trees and build a stadium with it.
Plant trees around stadium instead of concrete.
I can see sting bono and every other rich pop star playing there, even cold play.

What would all you environmental people do without internet. Send smoke signals.
I wonder what you’d burn ??
