Good shout. Sunderlands did impress me slightly more then the rest though, just for the sheer size of it. It's enourmous!
Still wank though

Yep, all the aforementioned although as said, Sunderland (& also the RICOH tbf) are of a slightly more impressive magnitude (although god knwos why they felt the need to give Coventry a 36k stadium when they couldnt fill that if their lives depended on it!)

Have you been inside the Ricoh? That's it's downfall.
Check this blandness out:
The concrete bit with the random small tier. Look so shit when you're inside.

Derby County aswel, same sort of design.
I like the new Anfield, especially the kop.

Its true 
Must be something to do with wanting to support the underdogs in the big 4. You know the team that you never expect to do anything out of them 4 but because of that you like them

Surely thats Arsenal considering they have won a hell of a lot less than us in recent seasons

I also wouldnt say that Emirates is a typical bowl stadium, yes, it has the same shape as other stadiums, but why is that a problem. The new Anfield has 4 stands, which is similar to 90% of ALL football stadiums
Yep is nothing like a typical bowl 
Nothing is wrong with it, its just a bit boring, and also means expanding is limited, if not near impossible. And yeah 4 different stands is the same as most grounds, but the stands are different, not just a standard bowl.
like i said before, with the emirates, its whats inside that counts. luxury seating all round, luxury box's etc etc. quality over quantity n all that......
i think i once read something about arsenal being able to add another tier to the emirates if they needed to, might just be making that up to look cool though.

In the last 4yrs you have won an FA Cup.
In the last 4yrs we have won the CL, an FA Cup, the Charity Shield and the Super Cup.

Charity Shield & Super Cup hardly count, therefore you have won the CL... well we reached the final and held the lead for considerbaly longer than you did before bowing out :/
+ we've done better in the league
+ extend back to 5 years and you can add in a Premiership crown and unbeaten season

Its only luxury as its brand new, it wont be any different than the new Anfield or any new topclass stadium tbh. Plus I suppose thats one way to explain your stupid ticket prices!!
I think its possible to add another tier, but looking at the pics it would mean taking off the whole roof as its one single structure - which means closing the whole stadium down!

The whole roof can come off if necy but they need express permission to extend by anymore than 10k IIRC (10k being the amount if u filled in the curvy bits at the top and make it look ridiculous)

You have the win the big comp to be in the chance to win those, so they do count
Oh...and if you are including reaching finals...we also reached the CL final AGAIN and the League Cup final.
And better in the league, this is the first time in 3yrs you've finished above us
