Let's hope our team performs next year and we attract some nice players, so that stadium get's filled up.

There used to be a lovely little cafe/restaurant nearby: locals, simple food, house wine, toilets a hole in the floor.
Hope it's still there.
I dearly hope they do not try and copy the modern template and include crap like Nandos. There is no point trying to replicate the "English" model in it's full glory....Torino is Torino not Manchester, therefore the place should be rife with small little resaurants and places that sell gelati and not hot dogs.

I have a horrible feeling the stadium will follow the way of the original Delle Alpi and become a bit of a white elephant.

it's most definitely going to be like that, they mentioned as much in the press releases.

Brilliant. It will be like going to any generic modern football stadium.
It's sad the lack of character in grounds these days, though I suppose it is somewhat inevitable in a newly built ground.

I dread the day Aberdeen leave Pittodrie for some soulless bowl.

For the umpteenth time this season, there is crowd trouble at the Olimpico.

Our management need to get the degenerate section of our fans under control. Any crowd trouble at our new stadium will be more problematic, considering how close they will be to the pitch.

The whole purpose of our new stadium was to provide a better experience to the fan. Under current conditions, this is simply not possible.


It is hardly a Juve problem either. Every week these idiots make the headlines. Italy needs to get tough on these hooligans. After the death of a police officer in Catania, all these new measures have been brought forward over the last few years, but in typical Italian fashion, they are either loosely enforced or done ass backwards.
