STADIUMS

• SOME STADIUMS (SUCH AS ANFIELD) HAVE REMAINED THE SAME BUT, ON THE OTHER HAND SOME HAVE BEEN COMPLETEY CHANGED LIKE IBROX

• OR STAMFORD BRIDGE

• NOT MUCH HAPPENED

ENGLAND HOSTED THE WORLD CUP.• THIS PROMPTED A WAVE OF STADIUM

DEVELOPMENTS.• GOODISON HELD 5 WORLD CUP MATCHES.• NEW STANDS WERE BUILT TO INCREASE THE

GROUNDS CAPACITY.

• GROUNDS NOT INVOLVED IN THE WORLD CUP BEGAN TO BUILD MORE NEW STANDS. THESE NEW STANDS HELD GREATER CAPACITY IN ADDITION TO IMPROVING THE COMFORT FOR THE FAN (EG SEATS).

• THIS INCLUDED GROUNDS LIKE ANFIELD ,CELTIC PARK AND TWICKENHAM.

• DISASTERS!• THERE WAS:– IBROX (1971)- 66 crushed on stairs when leaving– HESYEL (1985)-35 CRUSHED when a barrier

collapsed– BRADFORD (1985) 56 suffocated in a fire– HILLSBOROUGH (1989)- 96 crushed against the

fences

• NEW STANDS AND NEW STADIUM– ALL SEATER TO AVOID CRUSHES– WIDE EXITS TO AVOID CRUSHES – BUILT FROM CONCRETE AND STEEL SO IT WONT

CATCH FIRE– COVERED TO PROTECT FANS FROM WEATHER– COMMONWEALTH GAMES 2002

• A STADIUM BUILT NOT FOR FOOTBALL BUT FOR CYCLING WAS BUILT IN 2002 SPICIFICALLY FOR THE COMMENWEALTH GAMES IN MANCHESTER. IT IS CALLED THE VELADROME.

• WITH OUT A DOUBT, STILL THE MOST FAMOUS STADIUM IS THE NEW WEMBLEY

•

• LIVERPOOL IN THE FUTURE ARE GETTING A NEW GROUND CALLED “STANLEY PARK” AFTER WHERE IT WAS BUILT.
