Rikulec Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Okay, so I'm managing Selfoss in Iceland. In the first season I gained promotion to the top division and when I wanted to ask the board to expand the stadium, the option was greyed out and it said that there are plans for a new one. I've been waiting for an entire season. We did well and finished second in the league, so we will play in Europa League qualifications. When the season finished, I got the message saying that the council didn't let us build this new stadium. I was sad, but continued playing like if nothing had happened. A few months later, just before the new season started, the option is greyed out again and again the board is going to build a new stadium. So, what's going on there?

thomit Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 What is going on is that your board has new plans for a new stadium, which they hope the local council will be happier with than the first one. These things can drag on for years - welcome to a simulation of real life football. As a manager (or as a board) of a football club, you don't allways get what you want - at least not as fast as you want it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McRichie Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Just as a slight insight mate, I recall Southampton waiting something like 10 years and looking at around 2 or 3 area's before finally being able to build St Mary's Stadium which funnily enough is in the St Mary's area of Southampton lol Was a nightmare as we really needed to get a new stadium with a bigger capacity and it seemed that every corner we looked around the council put a massive no on it!

thomit Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Many, many clubs have that problem ... Tottenham, for example, has been wanting to move for years, but only recently it seems they have found a viable future solution. London is .... cramped.
