It's 4.5m from the nearest actual line according to Network Rail's guide for architects and builders.

Not pushing it, just saying its not impossible. Millwall has a gap of 40ft on one side and 6.5ft on another, St Marys is 50ft. Sure there's more but they were the first that sprang to mind. Again though an issue for architects and the planning department.

I can't imagine there's red hot security at Sphinx. they'll probably just take your word for it.

Plenty of football stadiums that are right next to other buildings, even housing. Again though I would have thought that was something to be looked at by architects when drawing up plans and discussed if we ever see said plans and a planning application is submitted.

Wasn't really suggesting we do a carbon copy of Millwall's stadium but if you want to read about some of the things they do to raise revenue look here: http://www.millwallcommercial.co.uk I'm sure there will be NIMBY's who complain however the fact they've moved to an existing stadium, where...

It is to scale. You can build 4.5 metres away from the track.

Reckon you could fit a new stadium onto the site. Posted this pic before but something like Millwall have wouldn't be impossible.

Thought everyone was keen for him to keep his mouth shut? Even if he did say something like that it would just get a response of 'more BS from Fisher'.

But what is the difference now from when CU said they had been considering a move to the Butts earlier in the year? They didn't move there and instead moved to Sphinx but said they would stay in contact with CRFC. From reading the article absolutely nothing has changed since then so why another...

Or this one, brentfordcommunitystadium.com, less than 1.5 miles from their traditional home. They should have employed me as a consultant as that's taken about 5 mins on google yet we're supposed to believe they couldn't find anywhere after spending years looking.

Don't see why not, there's several top level rugby sides who share with football clubs without having issues. Plus by reamining in London they get the benefit of Twickenham and Wembley games. I think we can put to bed the idea that Wasps put any serious effort into staying in London.

Interestingly this new ground for AFC Wimbledon is only 6.5 miles from Wasps traditional Sudbury home. Doesn't seem like Wasps look too hard to find a London ground. Just realised that its less than 3 miles from their old ground to Wembley. Saracens now play some of their games at Wembley (they...

Is there actually any new info in this report? Seems a bit of a rehash of the story from around the time they moved grounds, eventually ending up at Sphinx. At the time it was said they would keep talking and keep options open with regard to moving there at some point in the future. Could be...

Can't possibly be true. Everyone knows its impossible to build a new stadium in London.

The whole Cov Utd thing comes across to me as a bit of an ego trip. If there's some money to put into local football why not put it into someone like Sphinx?

I'm all for supporting injured players and giving them a chance to prove themselves but Thomas seems to just get one injury after another. Add in the concussion problems and he might want to consider retiring before he gets another blow on the head and potentially does long term damange that...

A win I think but a ground out win. 2-1 to us.

Couldn't care less about Leicester. Maybe it depends when you started going. I started in 86 and it was always Villa, Leicester never got a mention. Happy to see anyone, apart from Villa, break up the monotony of the same handful of teams.

Credit where it's due. Great service.
