You may recall the club in conjunction with the council had commissioned a study to see if it was even possible for the capacity of SB to be increased.
Whilst the study report hasn't been released yet it would appear that the club has now signed an agreement with a major firm of architects (Bayern stadium. China Olympic Stadium) to come up with designs.
Seems a strange thing to do if you don't see the report being positive to allow the expansion.

Why anybody would employ the people who designed that bird nest stadium is beyond me.
Bayerns stadium is fantastic though.

Seems to add a bit more credence to us looking for a temporary home too following the Twickenham stories.

Great news, I was expecting to see plans and hear some positive news re the study come spring/end of season. This puts us bang on track with my expectations.

What's wrong with the Bird's nest?
I think both the stadiums the firm has built are landmarks and absolutely stunning.
