    Some good points made, personally I am surprised a rugby ground has been favoured. Don’t people remember allowing rugby to be played at GP? The ground will get churned up and we would certainly not be playing the sort of along the ground football we want to see. it should be a footie ground (in London, sorry to those that travel up) which just leaves us with the usual suspects, none of which I would be happy to go to but would soon get over it if we get to watch the Bees march on. Especially IF we do go up and are in a higher division than QPR and Foolham.

    Stay at GP

    Surprised people are voting for The Stoop. 10 years ago, when we played up n under football maybe but a chopped up rugby pitch is no place for the Bees beautiful game.

    Put seats into Griffin park. I wouldn't want to put money in the coffers of other clubs, particularly Fulham or qpr. I know we could get more people in but I honestly believe we would lose the atmosphere that is created at gp that would give us a better chance of staying up if we do get there.

    Please not Reading! Nightmare public transport and expensive on train...

    On the one hand Twickenham and Stamford Bridge would be too large to create an intimidating atmosphere but it might allows us to massively expand our catchment and support ahead of Lionel Road.

    The Cottage and Loftus Road would be the best all round options but playing there would be hard to stomach!

    The Rugby grounds would create a good atmosphere and be something different but would sell out every single game losing potential revenue.

    What a dilemma this would be to have though...for once I will take a play off defeat!

    Judging by poll results no one seems to share my view but surely it has got to be a football and not rugby stadium? Best option for me is Loftus Road, everyone close to the pitch will hopefully create a decent atmosphere unlike a rugby stadium.
    And it'll be hilarious if QPR fans have to watch us play at their ground at a higher level than they do every week.

    Being totally selfish and as I only live 25 minutes away, Brighton! I think we need somewhere with atmosphere, covered stands, close to the pitch, good transport links. So although it
    grieves me to say it, Fulham would be my choice, If we chose not to stay at GP, where I've been going for 50yrs :)

    if we must leave GP then The Stoop is the only option. Never share with qpr/ful/che, twick/wemb too big, sarries/reading too far.

    I would prefer we stayed at GP, it might reduce capacity but it will give us the best chance of staying in the Prem until Lionel Road is open. Chelsea,Fulham,QPR, no! no! no!

    As I live in Wimbledon and a season ticket holder it would be easy to say the cottage or the bridge as they are so close to me however I have to say that til we move to Lionel road I would rather see seats put in at Griffin Park. The passion, excitement and atmosphere I witness at every home game would not be felt by the supporters or the team so with a heavy heart I have to say I would find it difficult to attend matches in a ground share scenario. Leaving griffin park after 46 year's to go to a new stadium is hard enough (albeit what we must do to continue our progress) but to go to a existing stadium would be in my view a destructive decision. And yes I am thinking with my heart not my head and I don't feel one bit guilty about having that feeling.

    has to be the stoop

  • Tim Fossick - 10 years ago

    Wembley is preferred option. Basing a club at an existing league ground is just a nightmare. Twickenham maybe but dates with rugby obvious clashes. Seats on our terraces is simple solution.
    I would not go to Fulham or QPR for home games.

  • Jonathan Woodard - 10 years ago

    Reading FC's ground - big enough capacity - near enough and not Fulham or QPR's Ground.

    Southampton.
