Brentfords New Stadium 11:29 - Feb 3 with 3166 views | enfieldargh | Was chatting to a fellow fan yesterday and he was telling me that Brentford have a few issues with their new build. The Stadium original capacity has had to be reduced to 17k as the original 20K+ plan the site was not big enough to fit. He was also saying that the current site allows for a pitch that is smaller than regulations and that the capacity may be reduced to c.12k. The original architect apparently made a total balls up even after all approved? Anyone know any more on this? | |

Brentfords New Stadium on 12:09 - Feb 3 with 3027 views | Northernr | Saw some video footage of it from a drone the other day and TBH it looks really good - tight and steep. But it was hard to see where they were going to fit the fourth stand and I had heard the rumour that the capacity was going to have to be reduced again a couple of weeks ago. Somebody suggested that had something to do with why Devlin had left as well. | | | |

When the mad Darlington owner built a huge ground they barely ever filled 20% of, the max attendance permitted was way less than the number of seats due to the lack of roads to and from the place. | | | |

They hate us in a similar vein to the way we view Chelsea - hence with them in our league and stuff I can see it. I note it's only going to end up 5K above what Griffin Park currently is. Financially I don't think this helps them overly going forward clearly no room for movement forward from this especially with the access issues The architechts could be in huge trouble - wonder why Devlin left with this in mind - QPR please take note not to use these people if we ever get a new ground. | | | |

That brought in down from around 20k to 17k. This sounds like a co(k-up that could lower it further to almost Griffin Parl levels. Sure, it’ll probably be a better place overall but would curtail any chance of getting higher than they are now. | | | |

Possibly something from the Briatore era? Has his QPR crest, not our new one. | | | |
