Yeah its K Town.
Karori is like Wellington, only people that live here know how great it is.
I always thought K Town was Kawerau
I thought it was where K' Road is.
Doloras brings it up a lot.
yet you seem to be putting a lot of effort into this thread.
All I do is make the stuff I would've liked
Reference things I wanna watch, reference girls I wanna bite
Now I'm firefly like a burning kite
And yousa fake fuck like a fleshlight
I like this idea of pushing the pitch closer to the seats on one side, and cutting the corners of the pitch into the seating slightly, allowing for a temporary stand alongside the opposite touchline. Croud would be much closer all round, and would reduce capacity enough to get that full and loud feel. If it was done properly it could look quite good, and could be easily put up and taken down when necessary, perhaps even with replacement temp seating in the 'corner cuts' so it got back to 34.5k when put back. And can't be that expensive can it? Certainly nowhere near the prices of whole new stadiums?
Surely it has merit and could get backing with WCC since it doesn't negatively impact on the existing investment like petone etc would?
We were wanting a smaller more compact stadium which would be louder, and with the croud closer to the pitch, like at hutt rec which many seemed to enjoy, and the proposed Petone stadium.
A couple of people had mentioned this idea and I'd not thought about it, but it could achieve something very similar, and at the same time there would be far less red tape, and would be easier to get wcc onside as the chief reason for them not wanting another stadium is to protect the investment in the current one.
At the game last night I was imagining it and I thought it would be quite awesome. The removable stand would have to be really well done though- it's gotta be easily installed/uninstalled, but more importantly has to give the right look on tv and needs to be better in terms of sound somehow.
