If you think having the required area around the pitch makes the stadium better than yeah, sure thing

not only that
the fact that we can hold more and when sitting down you have alot more room
those things together make a better stadium

What are you doing sitting down at football matches?
Standing up FTW.

against health and safety rules that. therefore making anfield less safe. hence rangers rugby ground having one more star perhaps?

When was that written? As it doesnt include some massive deals recently done in the US.

No idea TBH.
Just found it when looking to see how much money we got when our stadium was re-named.
EDIT - Says it was 2002.

Most of what he says makes sense, its just his examples are all really old as some much bigger deals done now which are more than double the highest ones on his lists!

The star rating system doesn't mean you have a better stadium it just means you've fulfilled the set criteria by UEFA which Rangers managed by default as the stadium was built well before the guidelines were brought in.
You could have the most glorious stadium in the world with personal servants waiting on you hand and foot but if your tunnel is 1 inch too small or the dressing rooms not far apart then you won't have a 5 star stadium.

I like Ibrox and Anfield because although they have changed a lot they still have lot of character from how they used to be.
Never been to Ibrox but its on my tick list for 2010, going to try get to an old firm now I know I can get tickets from a mate.

Carlsberg don't partially fund f*ck up's, but if they did they would probably partially fund the biggest...

What I don't like about these types of stadiums is the wasted space in the corner.
I understand the "we want a kop blah blah" just looks shit.
Rest of it looks quite good.
