Very difficult one. Closing a stand at a time will not only me a nightmare for fans wanting tickets but the loss in revenue wont help either. To do the whole ground will take at least 10 years imo.
Moving to a new stadium is a no brainer. Now we have more cash am sure a few brown envelopes here and there can boost our chances of building a stadium at the delapedated C.Palace park.

All this "spiritual home" stuff about CP park evades the issue of how fans lving South of the park will get there. Getting to Gipsy Hill or Crystal Palace station is a pain in the butt. Selhurst may have its faults but having three stations nearby is a big plus. This is especially important given that so many fans are ex-Croydon or South Norwood.
If we locate somewhere away from a mainline station then it has to be in an area that allows for dispersal of traffic, ie: major road links. That would suggest places such as A23 or A22. If that is the case then maybe we should be looking for locations at places like Godstone or some brownfield site on the southern M25?

This could be solved by filling in the corners one by one (say the two either side of the Holmesdale)thereby increasing the capacity without closing a stand and once done add a second tier to the Whitehorse and fill in those corners too and the capacity without effecting the fans greatly is increased by 10k or so.

Enjoying getting up later and not having someone who knows better than me (apart from the missus of course).

I suspect that one of the priorities in the redevelopment of Selhurst will be an increase in corporate facilities. More exec boxes make sense for a Premier league clb and are a huge money spinner.

I thought that the plans were being made for replacing a stand at a time, Main, Arthur and then building corporate boxes over Sainsburys. Finally filling in the corners.

It needs to be made multi use, for extra revenue, with multi story car parking.

I think it will start next close season. With modern building techniques each stand could be done quite quickly. The foundation work could start without disturbing the main stand during the season, then demolition and assembly of pre made parts.

Whoever is in charge I hope they consult a good acoustic engineer. Atmosphere needs to be designed in. It doesn't have to disturb the locals and can be made to focus the Holmesdale sound towards the Whitehorse end, for extra intimidation.

I'd like to see a Crystal Palace design for the exterior, (without the eagle)

The sports park would be horrible, no good pubs nearby and no transport.

Selhurst has been our home since the 20's I hope it is spick and span and has some silverware to display for the centennial.

Our spiritual home? Please. We've never played there since any one of us has been supporting Palace. Our home is Selhurst Park, and it's where I hope we remain.
