Birmingham city

Not sure why all the negativity.

Would love this level of ambition and positivity.

If it all goes through this is game changing for Birmingham, they will be a top five club within 10 years.

Ambition is something we need, as are alternative sources of revenue.

Hopefully any new owner will see this and also realise Hillsborough is too small and poorly serviced to take us forward. I doubt we could do anything like on this scale but, nice to dream.

Unfortunately I doubt the council would support anything ambitious, they have shown too many times that Sheffield has no ambition and very little joined up thinking.

Hopefully our new owner will look at this as something to beat so they have bragging rights

How’s this being funded? You can be pretty certain that an Asset Management firm aren’t sinking £billions into this.

They’ll be able to built it with bin bags at this rate

Even Lincoln has a bigger digital profile than Sheffield. Half the reason the National Centre for popular music never took off.

People just don't come to Sheffield for a day out, sadly.

Yep,go to Birmingham. 

And get a dose of Leptospirosis  

Birmingham may be a bigger city and may have better transport links and better shops but Birmingham city are not a bigger club than Wednesday . Build it and they will come , ambition is what is required

What a shithole Birmingham is..looks like s2 pig area

Is Birmingham a tourist destination?  Just a lot of brutalist concrete and race war and no one picking up the bins, isn't it?

I think I've been there once, to go to St Andrews, in 2000-ish.

Pablo Bonvin scored a wonder goal.

like most cities there are good and bad bits. The area off Broad St around the canals and the area around the cathedral are pleasant enough.

What's this got to do with Sheffield Wednesday Matchday?
