I agree and I don't like the idea

Carrow Road is perfectly located atm and having it out of the centre would be rubbish. Not just in terms of the club having lovely views of the rest of Nodge but in terms of transport and so on - I'm one of several thousand who walk to games, if we all had to jump on buses or Beryl scooters it would be a logistical nightmare. Plus modern stadia are rubbish, plasticky things which are more like airports with a bit of sport going on in them than actual football grounds.

In pounds shillings and pence that's probably the "best" expansion option though.

I'm encouraged that they put the express bar in the South Stand and did the Lion and Castle thing in recent years, it's a sign that they are upgrading the ground, albeit slowly and piece by piece.

I agree with Ben that a bigger ground would enable us to do kids for a quid/promotions and the like for the generations to come. Also when we do big gigs like Take That/Elton John/etc there'd be more revenue. I just want it to be where it already is, which I recognise might not be possible.
