Why is there a giant mosquito net covering the stadium?

Obviously a complete departure from OT, but it looks incredible. Charge £200 a pop for a lift up to the top of that tower.

Is this just a concept by one of the companies that could be responsible for the new stadium?

I love it. I think it’s a cool way of making the toilet bowl designs of modern stadiums look a little bit more unique. The communal plaza looks so fucking sick too in the other photos, I can imagine how great it’ll be to be sat inside that with the net covering you.
I totally get why people are laughing at it looking like a circus or whatever, but I am so fucking glad it’s not *just* a modern toilet bowl. The idea of a football net covering the stadium and allowing for a communal space for fans is so good especially when most stadiums don’t have that level of closeness between fans and the ground.
The most unrealistic part of all of this is us being 3-0 up in a game

Most unrealistic thing about it is the 3-0 scoreline 🥲

As it always is with architecture: people are so split in two. I for one love the look of this, really futuristic and unique. Looks like some Bioshock: Infinite-stuff.

3-0? In this economy?

First pic, you can see the red devil’s pitch folk from the 3 pillars continued to the paveway leading to the stadium.

Is anyone else worried about how on Earth they will manage to keep that roof/spire/net thing looking in good condition?

Looks like the stadium from the quidditch world cup when the death eaters turn up and start burning tents
People need to read the actual article. Its based on a devil trident and the “net” looking thing is to collect water and energy to be self sustainable.

i actually like it, it’s different compared to the average soulless bowl you see nowadays.

Is it a circus? That’s appropriate

Cool idea that it’s inspired by the devil trident

It’s giving Qatar world cup
Looks lovely, but doesn’t really look like a united stadium – needs more rectangles and exposed steel components
I’m probably in the minority… but I think it looks spectacularÂ
That look horrendous.
Anybody else think the trident would look so much better if all 3 spears were at the front next to each other? You know… like a trident
Distinct lack of green and gold.
It’s giving Qatari
Chatgpt prompt : Make Old Trafford but in the future with trees and apartments
that shit is ugly
Awful design in my opinion. It’s ugly!

Big Jim clearly loved a trip to Butlins when he was a wee boy.
Is it meant to represent a circus tent?
