Jesus, how hard is it to integrate at least half of these things? Especially things like gates. Although it'd be great if they ended up at someone's house who was chuffed to own them, there's a big chance this stuff'll all just go to the tip. You can just tell this redevelopment will end up looking like any stock, local leisure centre but in club colours. Teams and councils really need to embrace how rare and unique – and lucky – they are to have these stadiums.
But maybe there's hope – why would they tear down the old socia-I mean-pokies entry, and erect a new one, if it was all going to be torn down?
Maybe the shell of the current grandstand will still exist and be the skeleton of the membership centre and front desk? You'd hope so. They have a ludicrous amount of space to put in gyms and pools in the pockets and behind the goals. I don't even think the Olympic precinct would have that much space.
