My biggest worry with building a new stadium is that they will do it on the cheap and we will end up with the same issue as the RoF. 10-15 years down the track it will be rather dated, 48 million doesn't buy you much in terms of facilities.
Ok but a $200mn stadium isn't viable so what's better - the current arrangement which really is compromised by the distance from the pitch and is effectively meaning the club is not financially viable or a rectangular stadium of the correct size which secures the club's future? I'm really excited about this. Think about All Whites vs Island games also - perfect venue. Or other friendly games - far better to sell it out
