The stadium looks amazing but is it needed?
Lyon have been doing great over the last few years i would prefer if they spent more on improving the team to win the champions league then go for the new stadium.

I don’t think the prices will be too high.
The astronomical prices in England are more a way to fight against Hooligans than a new stadium consequencies.

Fanastic news!

I can understand the residents of Decines not wanting a football stadium on their doorstep. However as I don’t live there I’m delighted! Its great news for the club and the city as a whole. I hope the ticket prices remain as reasonable as they are at Gerland and don’t follow the astronomical prices in England.

Well, Aulas said that they would do their best to improve upon that timeline (best case is probably 2011/2012 though). But I guess he didn’t want a repeat of last time, where he promised a deadline of 2010, which turned out to be impossible to meet.

Awesome! Second step in Lyon’s quest to become a European giant. Marseille need to speed up their improvement.

FINALLY

what took so long, seriously this project will bring economic boom to the city, don’t why people where resisting it. lyon is a growing city, its time for its citizens to accept that the landscape is changing, i’m sure lyon city officials realize the money lyon brings to the city. its also good for the club because it means more revenue, and will tempt to come watch the games
