Kerrydale Street-The Sevco thread || Thread will be out of action for the next few months. Looking for an alternative home. (2024)

I now have that scene from The Office in my head and can foresee fire alarms going off , every hun running for the exits ……leaving folk left behind sitting weeping in their wheelchairs , no-one to push them ….. *

* obviously I hope this never happens , I’m not a cruel man .

ChatGPT.
Recent Examples:
Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, London (2019): Approximately £1 billion for a 62,000-seat stadium, averaging around £16,130 per seat.
Allegiant Stadium, Las Vegas (2020): Approximately $1.9 billion for a 65,000-seat stadium, averaging around $29,230 per seat.
Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Atlanta (2017): Approximately $1.6 billion for a 71,000-seat stadium, averaging around $22,540 per seat.
Rough Estimate:
Given these examples, we can provide a broad estimate for a 70,000-seat stadium in Glasgow:

Low End Estimate: Using a lower per-seat cost similar to less extravagant stadiums, around £8,000 per seat, the total would be approximately £560 million.
Mid Range Estimate: Using an average per-seat cost, around £15,000 per seat, the total would be approximately £1.05 billion.
High End Estimate: For a high-end, state-of-the-art stadium, around £25,000 per seat, the total would be approximately £1.75 billion.

Conclusion:
A reasonable rough estimate for building a 70,000-seat stadium in Glasgow would likely range from £560 million to £1.75 billion, depending on the aforementioned factors. For a more accurate estimate, a detailed feasibility study and consultation with construction experts and local authorities would be necessary.

So... that's a no then?

ChatGPT must have included a hover pitch and a monorail.

I asked ‘in absolute percentage terms how accurate is ChatGPT in estimating football stadium construction costs in Scotland?’ … it was like Peter Lawwell had personally typed the response - equivocating Tory bastard

Link to planning application (nicked from twitter).
Seems to still be... 'pending'!

The 'major building problem at ibrox' thread on FF has a poster finally mentioning the lack of a building warrant. So far it's not been highlighted so a whole new topic for the huns to rage about

As we all sit on tenterhooks watching Scotland.

Just remember the important things in life: eff the huns.

They have more tax advisors than structural engineers in their support.

I think it was probably a p*rnstar that advised them on how to go about the paperwork for the stadium reconstruction. It seemed to work last time so…

Not sure of consequences of it, I'm assuming GCC will be or have already issued a notice to stop works.

They have powers to order the Huns to put the stand back to its original condition before the works started but I think common sense will prevail here and they'll just give them the BW approval.

When they give them it is another matter. Could be weeks, could be months.

I'd be surprised if GCC were pressured into fast tracking it, there will be scores of other BW apps sitting in the to do pile.

Huns app is number 664 (i know, close, right?) of the year and was submitted in early April, so averaging about 160 a month. That's 8 per working day. And there's at least 663 applications with more priority than Huns not including any legacy applications from 2023 still in the queue.

It will be interesting to see how quickly they turn it around.

Planning an Warrant are unrelated matters. Different things. You get planning first, develop the consented design and make your warrant application. Only one connection between them…you can’t apply for warrant without planning consent….

From personal experience of Planning and BW for work done on my house you can submit them both about the same time.

BW can't be approved before Planning though.

So the Huns need their Certificate of Lawfulness approved by the Planners before the Building Control guys can approve the BW.

Another cog that needs to turn, adding more red tape and delays to the process.

Which is nice.

Unless your house is the ‘big hoose’ we can likely soften the approach you might imagine GCC will take - ProvansSocks has this nailed down
