Go on, admit it!
Some of you must be envious of how our North London rivals, Arsenal and Tottenham, both have state-of-the-art stadia whilst our plans to build a new ground, seemingly, floundered and died.
Perhaps the biggest reason why the new ground was placed on hold, aside from our owner not being welcome to visit this country by our government, was the cost.
The initial estimate put the cost of demolishing Stamford Bridge and seeing a new old rise at around the £500 million mark.
However as the days passed that figure doubled to an astronomical £1 billion, a figure that certainly made my jaw drop.
But is the project dead and buried?
Apparently not!
The news source, the New Civil Engineer, are reporting that Chelsea still harbour ambitions to build the new ground and are looking at reducing the costs, back to the original figure, quite how remains to be seen.
Unfortunately, our referenced source also points out that, much to our dismay, Chelsea are also looking at alternative locations.
But, what are your views on the subject matter?
Can you see our beloved Chelsea playing in a brand new stadium somewhere down the line or have we missed that particular boat?
