First time i visited Selhurst was for Wimbledon v Liverpool in the Premier League 1995. £15 entry and having seen the view of the pitch from the Arthur Wait stand i cant understand why the redevelopment does not start there,and to be honest i wonder if a pitch rotation through 90 degrees would have been better,allowing to extend the only good stand in the ground. As it is this is millions bieng spent to give a set up that is as unbalanced as Bradford City's Valley Parade. This is the type of ground project that should have been abandoned years ago in favour of Crystal Palace Athletics track rebuild.
I gather The Old National Sports Centre was seriously looked into as did Tottenham as a possible move to, before finally settling on redeveloping Whitehart Lane. You're 100% on the money with regard to the Arthur Waite stand (The New Stand) as we Knew it in my early teens 🤣🤣I'm now 66!! Yeah. It's awful, steel supports in the way, where ever you're watching, and if you're at the back you'd do better to listen to or stream the match then try to watch it live. Of course, I'm exaggerating, you can see parts of the pitch 🤔No. It's bloody awful. PS. I felt a bit guilty. In The clubs' defence, they didn't own the ground until 2010 when bought out of administration, which is why the Homedale end stand was the last development at the ground in the early 90s. Ron Nodes still owned the ground. Credit where it's due, they've cleaned up and modernised the ground as much as can, they've built state-of-the-art training centre, won promotion to The Premier League where we've stayed not without drama, for 13 years. It wouldn't be Palace if it wasn't!!
Because it wouldn't have been possible to redevelop and keep open the AW stand. Developing the Old Stand first means there won't be a reduction in the ground capacity during construction.
Look I'm a season ticket holder, have been for 40 years, its like putting lipstick on a pig, or polishing a turd, a dump is still a dump, it's not big enough to compete, also the estimated cost will rise when they discover the asbestos in the roof 😅😅
@@sah_19 the club and olise negotiated a new contract after he turned down Chelsea . Replaced the £35 m clause with the one agreed with Munich ( £55 m including a large sell on clause ?) . In return he 100% knew he would get a move a year later , in the meantime he trousered over £100 k a week and palace knew they’d benefit from another 15 m .

It's fine but I would rather them to do this firstly settle 1st team and Women teams get them to full stretch & depth so they can thrive very comfortably both in top flight tier Divisions really would be a bit of waste if either of them were to drop down..
Not as easy as that think about it. The Arthur wait stand is at road level so you can’t build upwards because of residents and the Whitehorse lane stand is attached to flats.
To me, I see a design that will be outdated by the time it's complete. I also find it baffling that they're creating an arc design in roofline and footprint despite all the other stands being boxy and angular. Surely a design like Anfield, but with more glass reminiscent of the original Crystal Palace, would have suited the ground better.
I’m palace fan and even I am finding it hard to believe all the shit this talker is saying about palace lol. Showing are trophy cabinet is a joke 🤦🏽♂️. But I still my team and crap ground. Come on the palace.
How many times do I have to hear it's based of the actual crystal palace and most iconic in south London? You're having a laugh, amazing fans but not iconic
@@PedroNeves-hm5xm a new stadium, especially in London, would cost anywhere from 1 to 3 billion these days. plus yeah, the time it would take to even get the rights to build a brand new stadium in London would make the whole thing insanely costly. anyone that says Crystal Palace should just build a new stadium doesn't know what they're talking about
Looks good, all the best from CELTIC, SUPPORTERS.
Terrorist sympathisers
Spurs fan here .. good luck .. I hope it happens 👍🏻
England's most iconic football ground? Really?
Narrator is deluded.
Totally!@@fwof3347
Think that belongs to Craven cottage esthetics wise

😂😂😂 it’s a dump

Tory Bromley Council & the nimby locals won't allow it.

the last time I was at Selhurst Park for a game, both the stands behind the goals didn't even have roofs.. just open stands..
GO PALACE ! all the best from spurs !
Does anyone know if they will build all 4 sides to resemble a huge crystal palace
Wow, 34000. Should be expanding it to at least 42000
They'll be fortunate to get 12000 in the Championship.
So... Palace sold Olise to pay half the stadium. If Palace gets relegated at least they will have the stadium upgrade.
Olise had a £50m release clause . He actually did the club a favour by rejecting going to Chelsea season before for £35 m ( old release clause!)
@@jakegrace79 but seeing how he's doing with Bayern maybe you sold him cheap. By now Crystal Palace doing better and is kinda far from relegation.

This is other monies ring fenced before Olise.
It looks like a good idea.
Englands most iconic football ground? Are you on drugs lol.
Good video but id say this will be far more than $100 million, closer to $250 million realistically
What is the point of modernising only a quarter of a stadium ?
£s in England not $ ..
It's fine but I would rather them to do this firstly settle 1st team and Women teams get them to full stretch & depth so they can thrive very comfortably both in top flight tier Divisions really would be a bit of waste if either of them were to drop down..
The cost is now nearer £200m due to inflation, as these plans have now been talked about for around 6/7 years......sigh.....🙄
How many years have they been talking about this.
Since Roy Hodgson was wearing short trousers!!!!!!!!😅
To F**king Many, but then it is Palace. Until the oversite is removed and foundations are being dug, I won't hold my breath. 🤔🙄❤💙
Budget of 100 million is being optimistic
Mind you a small (34,000} stadium for a small club
Why renovating just one stand. ?? Renovate the whole stadium complex .
Not as easy as that think about it. The Arthur wait stand is at road level so you can’t build upwards because of residents and the Whitehorse lane stand is attached to flats.
everytime a club gets a stadium upgrade or a new stadium getting build
they be always in the relegation zone 😭
Eh?! Is this an AI script?! England's most iconic football ground? C'mon, grow up.
No way😅 Crystal Palace will go another hundred years before this.
The video could of been 2 minutes long. It just basically repeats the same info every 2 minutes just reworded

The stand is the same as the Anfield main stand… same architects same construction method. The front and canopy is different that’s all.

Total waste of money for a team that has been an embarrassment for the last 11 seasons. 😂
We'll have the nicest stand in the championship
Not if Everton go down with you.
No ambition at all. Yeah let's just do the one stand.
AI nonsense
2030?
In no other Country in the world would this design / build cost $100.000.000 .

this video is a joke right, the heartbeat of South London, we laugh at crystal palace when ever we visit
Palace is the ugliest ground in London after Leyton Orients ground.
Looks stupid. Way too modern to go with the reat of the stadium.
What a complete mess. BHAFC.
Enjoyed the result? Ha ha.
@@paulbaxter8651 No. But then I look at the table and I feel better, BHAFC. LOL.
not trying to be funny good video but your sucking off palace too much
old trafford
st james park
anfield
all more iconic football grounds
It will still look like a turd.
Prat
@terrystacey2648 can't polish a turd, the areas a turd, the stadium a turd, Croydon's a turd. What are you gonna do, send the ultras?
growing number of fans looooool aye all 10.000 of em lol
Selhurst park is an atrocious stadium.
St Andrews is a dump end of
Should have put the money towards a completely new stadium instead, selhurst is a dump
I can't imagine there being much land nearby in order to do that... Plus does Palace even have the budget to completely rebuild a new stadium?
