It almost looks like the thing has collapsed on to itself. From the renders there doesn't appear to be any obvious reasons for not having a more equal proportional stand. Having said that, is that some kind of important listed building in the bottom right? It kind of reminds me of the cottage at Fulhams FC's ground Craven Cottage in London. See the link below http://www.bbc.co.uk/london/sport/galleries/football/gallery1/8.shtml Aka March 6th, 2007, 07:29 PM That's an "old" render, actually.

Only the att. lack behind, but the stadiums are beautifull mop! Little stadiums are old but in city centers, so the land value is high. Old stadiums are demolished and turn into malls or real estate buildings. With the money earned, little clubs like Varzim or Rio Ave can built new and modern 10000-seats (with roof and all comodities) and attract more people to the stadiums. It's not EU... It's only business! The EU money is used for big investments (TGV, highways, new Lisbon airport, and more).

When i watch Eurogoals on Eurosport, therer only seem to be a few people in the stadiums, even with games between the big clubs from portugal! That's completely false. How come, its not like tickets are so expensive They are. At least for our pockets. or people dont like football in Portugal!? They do. But people have more important things in their lives to spend most of their salaries. So they tend to spend their money just for somes major games. Quite strange really, when you consider the rising attendences in the rest of europe! Really? Tell that to Italy where theatre attendances were bigger than football's. Oh! And our corruption in football is way bigger than theirs, really. And what about Manchester City and Middlesbrough? The truth is you're always teasing on portuguese attendances when they're bigger than most of other european countries, that have lower prices. We just don't put them our giant clubs in 12.000 seats stadiums with no f... conditions like I see in...the rest of europe! I do prefer to have Cristiano Ronaldo, Simão and Quaresma than more 10.000 spectators. And how come portuguese clubs have more money than teams from... the rest of europe! - except England, Spain and the rest of the major leagues - if they don't sell any tickets? ;) The problem with some people here - I'm not saying you - is that they have sold outs every week, but they don't have top football. And that anoys them. Aka March 18th, 2007, 03:32 PM Adding: Portuguese attendances were way bigger some years ago, even in smaller leagues. But life is harder now...

How come, its not like tickets are so expensive or people dont like football in Portugal!? Quite strange really, when you consider the rising attendences in the rest of europe! Tickets are fairly expensive and it is much more comfortable to watch a game on the telly at home or in some bar. The problem with Portugal is that our lives are so full, unlike boring northen europe, that people seem to have little time and money to spend on watching a game at the stadium. In my view that's rather unfortunate and to be honest I'd like to see our football leagues poach people from shopping centres around the country for example. Paulo2004 March 23rd, 2007, 01:08 AM I love Football, specially the one played in Portugal, yet I much prefer to go touring our beautiful country, see a play, visit friends and family and ofcourse go down to the beach when the weather permits, than spending my sunday inside a stadium - but that's Portugal - always a fun place to be!

The North stand contained a temporary and uncovered tribune that ran parallel to one of the playing field's short sides. After the Euro 2004 tournament, the tribune was demolished to leave space for a commercial centre and hotel. In addition, an athletics track was built completing the elliptical framework. As a consequence, the stadium's capacity was dropped by 5 000 seats. Difficult to find pictures of the Euro configuration, this is one: http://www.adal.pt/Leira.jpg Infact I have no idea whether that building has been finished by now... Aka April 28th, 2007, 03:29 AM Infact I have no idea whether that building has been finished by now... The stand is off. The track is on. The building is still unfinished.

Souto De Moura. 2004 Braga is the most spectacular of the 7 new stadiums built in Portugal for the 2004 European Cup, designed by Uefa to be one of the most interesting works of architecture for sports facilities. Designed by Portuguese architect Edoardo Souto de Moura, Braga Municipal Stadium has one thing that makes it different from all the others: it is one with the landscape around it, as it stands on the site of a former quarry (the Dume granite quarry) on the slopes of Mt. Castro. This is the first architecturally significant project to be built in a former quarry area in a part of the country abounding in granite. Its reinforced concrete structure defines the stands with sober lines. Three round galleries cross through the stands for easy access.The fact that there are no stands on the other two sides makes the stadium more open to the outside than other, similar structures and permits pleasant views of the surrounding landscape. Another unusual thing about the stadium is the roof over the football field, formed of a series of cables (with a span of 220 metres) woven between the two stands. The result is a suspended structure that gives a light touch to this reinforced concrete construction, seeming to dissolve, especially at night, so that people can see the sky and the mountain in the flank of which the stadium is set. The image is like that of an ancient sculpture, and in fact the architect seems to have been inspired by ancient Inca rope bridges in Peru. The stadium is most evocative when lit up at night, when its three-dimensional qualities are emphasised.The architect¿s and the clients¿ goal was to create a landmark in the built landscape of the region with a work that would attract people not only to see the sports events it hosts but to see the stadium itself, with its unusual construction and geometry. And in fact a series of openings and particular solutions in the stands permit spectacular views of the construction and of the surrounding landscape. In this stadium, spectators also enjoy great views of the field, as all the seats are concentrated in the two steep stands along the long sides of the lot. This project with its innovative formal aspects and construction solutions won architect Eduardo Souto de Moura the 47th FAD de Arquitectura 2005 award.

About the attendance in stadiums, i dont think the low salaries have anything to do with it to be honest because: 1-Saying that the average Portuguese cant afford or cant be bothered to spend money on trivial things like going to a match is not right, because most people i know that make minimum wage spend much more money on outher trivial and usless stuff, and some of you guys cant deny it, dont you know people that make minimal wage and are always complaining that they dont have enough money but they can afford a computer, 2 or more big screen televisions, carry around atleast 1 cellphone and are constantly recharging it, put a down payment on a car even if they already have one and then say they are broke lol, expensive brand clothes for them or their teenage children ect... i could go on all day, acctually a good example is my mother and step father who atleast once a year go visit my step father`s sister in Germany, go spend vacations in Porto Santo(a island not to far from Funchal), are in the process of remodling their house, my mother spends a small fortune on just getting her hair done ect... and then complain that they have tons of bills, altough some people that complain about not having money acctually dont im just mentioning the minimum wage people that i know 2-On the Portuguese forum(might be anouther forum im not really sure)i read a study that only 2.8% of the population receives minimum wage(although the study might be wrong) 3-There was anouther study(that also might be wrong and i kind of have the feeling that it might be) that said that Portugal and Spain have 20% less unemployment that the European average(atleast thats what i remember it saying) so that should count for something 4-I hope that Benfica fans dont get mad at me for this, but pretty much every time i watch a Benfica match i see a lot of thootless guys an a lot of outher people in the crowd that dont seem to be very rich(it seems like the majority but i might be wrong) and since the stadium with most attendance is Stadium da Luz i think that monetary instability plays a major role for the low attendence of most stadiums 5-Correct me if im wrong but werent the attendences in Portugal a lot higher years ago even when our monetary situation was preety much the same Here are some reasons why i think the league packs so little people to the stadiums: 1-I think that stadiums are empty because of the quality of some matches, i admit to not watching most of our own leagues games but from what i could see in highlights is that some of the teams dont even seem to try, it seems that some players are there just to collect a paycheck 2-This theory is a little unusual but i think that because the Portuguese league games are played on the weekend not many people are interested in spendind much time in a stadium on their day/s off, if it were on a week day it would be diffrent even if just a little bit even tough i still think that poor quality footballing is the main reason skaP187 August 28th, 2007, 12:41 AM Nice stadiums though in Portugal, they´ve got all kinds of them. Coming from a direct ´rival´ country, the Netherlands. Our leagues are during the years always more or less at the same level, Also we have three real big teams. So I think we are pretty comperasive. The stadiums in Portugal are from a far more higher level then in the Netherlands mop. A) Portugal has a lot of big stadiums!!! (for a small country with all respect) B) The designs are from a very, very high and original standard. Just thinking of Braga (that´s balls my opinion, whether you like it or not) and original Leira.Very original. A lot of different style of stadiums from the feelingwise English styled Boavista to the arena of da Luz. Porto stands on it´s own, without forgetting mentioning the stadium of Sporting Portugal. C) but it is a shame the stadiums are that empty. They should put more people in Portugal!!! I think percentwise looked op on the population there are going quite a lot of people watching a game. Portugal only has about 10 650 000 habitants. (against Netherlands 16.3 and Belgiums 10.4 not to mention countries like Germany, Italy, France with respectevely 82.4 , 58.1 , 60,8) What I want to say is very, very nice stadiums, just don´t ask why. traveler September 30th, 2007, 03:49 AM Nice stadiums ! :okay: Paulo2004 October 7th, 2007, 12:20 AM Photos by Checco24 http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v418/checco24/leiria040.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v418/checco24/leiria039.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v418/checco24/leiria033.jpg LMCA1990 October 7th, 2007, 01:23 AM portugal has awesome stadia.

Kuvvaci August 3rd, 2008, 03:58 PM Portugal is one of the countries wich has the best modern stadiums in Europe. (I guess the others are Germany and England so far -other countries are in the progess too) and EURO 2004 stadiums are even better than EURO 2008 stadiums.

Aka October 29th, 2008, 10:56 PM Random question but can anybody explain why Portuguese league attendance is so poor outside of the big 3? I thought football was religion in Portugal... Many reasons: Most of the Portuguese support one of the big three, Expensive tickets for our wallets, Game quality is not that great, The Portuguese people love it when they're winning but don't even show up when they're not, A sense of corruption, Shopping malls. Aka October 29th, 2008, 11:02 PM Has it ever been used for basketball? A b-ball game there would be so awesome. No, but the Elvas arena has. And also volleyball. nceBwOEiZwg&fmt=18 The basketball national team doesn't play that much in Lisbon, and even if they did there would be better arenas for it. As for the clubs, they have their one grounds. Aka October 29th, 2008, 11:07 PM Campo Pequeno: 1y7_XZLCDA4&fmt=18 As you can see, it's not that great for something like basketball. It's too round.

They'll be using the current stadium at least until 2013. seattle92 December 30th, 2008, 01:36 PM Yeah, but I was expecting for Benfica to be the exception since I heard it has the most socios in the world and they have like 80% of the fans in Portugal? Well, it's also strange that neither at the game with Sporting they did not fill the stadium. Same thing is available for The Netherlands maybe, but I pretty sure Ajax and Feyenoord stadiums can be filled up at least twice the capacity when the play together. You'll ear a lot of lies about Benfica, get used to it. In Portugal we all are. The reallity is they, with all those "socios". Can't put much more people in the stadium than Sporting or Porto. The averages are more or less the same, and if we see what hapened in the last 5 seasons, many times Sporting and specially Porto had better averages. Lampiões, don't waste your time. I know Sporting is with a bad average this season, and i know that Benfica is the club with best average so far. But don't forget, Sporting and Porto already played in Luz this season. www.sercan.de December 30th, 2008, 01:45 PM So are those wrong? http://european-football-statistics.co.uk/attn/2000/avepor.htm seattle92 December 30th, 2008, 06:41 PM So are those wrong? http://european-football-statistics.co.uk/attn/2000/avepor.htm What do you mean? Your link confirms exactly what i've just said. In the last 9 seasons. Porto had the best average 4 times, Benfica also 4 and Sporting 1. But in almost all, the 3 got an average or 30 something thousand. Only once Benfica got more then 40 000. Conclusion. The club of the 6 million supporters (this is what they like to say), can't barely put more people in the stadium than the other 2, and when they do it's never more then 10000 (in average). Why would they have a bigger stadium if this one is always half full? The reality is that they only built the new Luz bigger than Alvalade and Dragao, because of their egos www.sercan.de December 30th, 2008, 11:56 PM "and if we see what hapened in the last 5 seasons, many times Sporting and specially Porto had better averages." I just thought that Sporting was 2-3 times better than Benfica My fault :D seattle92 December 31st, 2008, 01:02 AM "and if we see what hapened in the last 5 seasons, many times Sporting and specially Porto had better averages." I just thought that Sporting was 2-3 times better than Benfica My fault :D I wrote my post without looking at any "official" data, just with the experience i have when i go to Alvalade and when i see Benfica games on TV. Let me correct. In the last 5 seasons only once Sporting had better averages than Benfica. Happy? The thing is, you get my point (if you want to). Benfica is clearly the club with more supporters in Portugal (many more than Sporting or Porto), but the reallity is that they don't put many more people in the stadium every week. Many times they even put less. That's why we say many times that the fans only like Benfica when the team is winning . seattle92 December 31st, 2008, 01:13 AM Is there an awesome stadium completed in 2008 in your country? Nominate it for SSC Stadium of the year 2008 (http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=771596) Don't think so.

Benfica have already had many "full houses" in the last 5 years (age of the stadium): Manchester, Liverpool, Barcelona, Sporting, Academica(Feher death), etc.... Sporting just had 2 times (inauguration and UEFA final)... Made your conclusions. pedro_sousa December 31st, 2008, 12:45 PM The averages are more or less the same, and if we see what hapened in the last 5 seasons, many times Sporting and specially Porto had better averages. Post of the year 2008. :banana: p.s: Sporting stadium was already partially sold, so "in truth" they didn´t have a "full stadium"... Maybe the chairs and the green field. pedro_sousa December 31st, 2008, 12:52 PM And as you can see, Sporting supporters didn´t really can say anything of Benfica, because their clube is small... So they bring Porto always to the conversation. :lol: seattle92 December 31st, 2008, 06:27 PM Actually you are wrong. Benfica have already had many "full houses" in the last 5 years (age of the stadium): Manchester, Liverpool, Barcelona, Sporting, Academica(Feher death), etc.... Sporting just had 2 times (inauguration and UEFA final)... Made your conclusions. My conclusion is that you don't need a 65000 seats stadium if your average is usually around 30 something. Who cares if one game per season you are able to have full house? seattle92 December 31st, 2008, 06:28 PM Post of the year 2008. :banana: p.s: Sporting stadium was already partially sold, so "in truth" they didn´t have a "full stadium"...

At least I don´t have to turn to other clubs to speak bad of a old rival. :cheers: pedro_sousa December 31st, 2008, 08:33 PM And who buys the seats???? Uhhhhmm let me guess... I don´t know who buys it, but they usually don´t appear on the stadium :lol: Sporting has this weird phenomenon of having more "season seats" sold, that the attendance on the stadium... And the gap is more that thousands! :nuts: :lol: seattle92 January 1st, 2009, 09:32 PM This is my last post about this subject, because it doesn't make sence to keep this debate with you. This all started when i reply to this post: "Originally Posted by Paul the Gunner Yeah, but I was expecting for Benfica to be the exception since I heard it has the most socios in the world and they have like 80% of the fans in Portugal? " I said this was not true, without looking at any officiall data. The impression i had was that in the last seasons Benfica didn't have better atendences then the other two. And if it had, it wouldn't be by a great diference. I made a mistake when i said Sporting had better averages then Benfica many times. Well, that's not true, in the last 5 seasons, that only happened one time (2004). The truth is that i was correct about the general idea i wanted to proove. This is the average of the last 5 seasons (you just have to do the maths in the link http://european-football-statistics....000/avepor.htm): 1 FC do Porto 37255 2 SL Benfica 36615 3 Sporting CP 31030 Benfica is not the club with more public in the stadium (at least that didn't happened in the last 5 seasons). And no, i'm not using Porto to attack Benfica like you say, i'm simply looking at officiall data. The other idea i wanted to show (and you also have the proove here), was that the 3 clubs have very similar atendences. (37-31) 6 thousand was the diference between Porto and Sporting. Of course it's easy to connect this results with the fact that in those 5 seasons, Porto won 4 titles, Benfica one and Sporting none. The only thing i tried to do here was to show the foreigners in the thread, that Benfica doesn't have 65000 in the stadium every week. It's seemed many guys here were thinking that. Probably because you or other lampioes made them think that way.

The best solution was to place this platform in an intermediate level, allowing to create a floor below the soccer field where all the facilities are located and to use the ground outside to create a garden which kind of closes the outside space. Colour was used as an attempt to achieve this plasticity and character that reinforce the idea of mass, a heavy mineral mass that was almost sculpted by a knife. This static mass is the scenery where the players move with outstanding Dynamics. http://www.archdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/1272057098-05104pr091008-037d.jpg http://www.archdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/1272057083-05104pr091008-008d.jpg http://www.archdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/1272057087-05104pr091008-019d.jpg http://www.archdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/1272057093-05104pr091008-032d.jpg http://www.archdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/1272057103-05104pr091008-039d.jpg http://www.archdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/1272057107-05104pr091008-046d.jpg http://www.archdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/1272057111-05104pr091008-050d.jpg http://www.archdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/1272057116-05104pr091008-059d.jpg http://www.archdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/1272057120-05104pr091008-074d.jpg http://www.archdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/1272057124-05104pr091008-077d.jpg http://www.archdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/1272057127-05104pr091008-080d.jpg http://www.archdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/1272057133-05104pr091008-083d.jpg carlosfng April 29th, 2010, 11:47 AM ^^ Absolutely brilliant. The exquisitely modernist design, especially on the facade and the pathways, and that roof (it's the first time I've ever seen a triangular roof structure perpendicular to the field and not parallel!). Shame it must only hold about 5000 people in it, but still it is a pure jewel. Oh, and the boavista one is quite terrific also. Great rectangular ground shape, totally enclosed, nice steep tiers, and probably the best combination of colors I've seen on stadium seats.

So as far as I know there will be 2 matches away from the teams own stadiums :lol: Andre_idol August 11th, 2010, 02:22 AM Barreiros update http://img37.imagefra.me/img/img37/8/7/30/manica/f_r248wqo5ov9m_ba7cdb4.jpg http://img38.imagefra.me/img/img38/8/7/30/manica/f_r248wqo5ov9m_842c612.jpg 09/08/10 by Homem da Conspiraçao http://img30.imageshack.us/img30/6123/p1010001kh.jpg http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/2730/p1010003st.jpg http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/6860/p1010004y.jpg Source: forum Maritimoonline They will use that old stand for the first matches of the season. Europa League match included. Those almost finished stands (only lacks roof and seats) will probably be ready for the match against Benfica in mid-September. traveler August 14th, 2010, 02:23 AM Looks good!

I´ll post photos when I have them ;) Carlo5 October 23rd, 2010, 05:25 PM Are there in Portugal new stadiums being built and renovations apart from Barreiros at this moment? And wich footballclub plays in the renovated stadium of Barreiros? CiudadanoDelMundo October 23rd, 2010, 10:38 PM Barreiros is the stadium where C.S. Marítimo plays. Carlo5 October 24th, 2010, 10:03 AM OK, thank you CiudadanoDelMundo, But i have a another question. Will the main stand still to be renovated of the Barreiros stadium? CiudadanoDelMundo October 25th, 2010, 05:21 PM Yes, is planed to be finished in July 2011, anyway, in this link you can watch the project for the stadium. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B1Qfa5ydA-k Carlo5 October 25th, 2010, 06:31 PM Okay thanks for the information CiudadanoDelMundo. Did you happen to have more information about newly stadiums that will soon built in Portugal, renovated stadiums, and stadiums that will be expanded? But I can find not much stadium news from Portugal. Andre_idol October 26th, 2010, 02:19 AM ^^There´s not much going on. Barreiros is being renovated. Portimonense is having a new stadium (but first they will improve the old one as you see in the last page). Naval has plans for a new stadium (no money though) Varzim...same story. Setúbal...more of the same + burocracy. Paços de Ferreira is thinking in a new or renovate their stadium. And that´s all for the main leagues. Carlo5 October 26th, 2010, 10:46 AM @Andre idol - Thanks for the information. So if I understand correctly, there are no stadiums in construction or in renovation at this moment, except in Barreiros and Portimonense. Andre_idol October 28th, 2010, 02:30 AM ^^Exactly Carlo5 ;) The one with more chances to get build in a near future is Vitória de Setúbal new stadium...but as I said...looots of burocracy... Carlo5 February 6th, 2011, 03:03 PM Is there a new renovation update from the stadium in Barreiros and/or in Portimonense? gigito_13 February 6th, 2011, 11:39 PM Is there a new renovation update from the stadium in Barreiros and/or in Portimonense? Barreiros is stop for 2 months and continue i think is because of money BTW the original project i think is best than the actual http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fK-aOlAbjHo&feature=related Andre_idol February 7th, 2011, 12:36 AM Is there a new renovation update from the stadium in Barreiros and/or in Portimonense? Barreiros renovation works are due to restart at full speed later this month...the works are pretty much like the last pictures. Portimonense´s next game will be on the renovated stadium already so if I get any pics or videos I´ll put them here ;) nadeem1414 February 10th, 2011, 01:20 PM there are lot of country which have excellent stadium but in the world cup India Cricket (http://www.forumpakistan.com/cricket-worldcup-2011-teams.php) board are maintaining the excellent stadium which is due to work delay but excellent like Australia and England.

No. And there´s no plans for that in a near future. President would like to have a new or renovated stadium but €€ speak louder.

The idea of “giving back” an acre of green space to the town was the main motto for this project. A solid block, which levitates into the landscape. A building which you can see and lets those who pass by see it, too. An open space to the city where football is the main entertaining agent. The solution found refers to a volume that stands in front of the entrance plaza inviting passersby in. On the inside, there’s a pitch which takes the leading role, an element that generates emotions. http://plusmood.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/08EMP_spaceworkers-1.jpg http://plusmood.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/08EMP_spaceworkers-2.jpg http://plusmood.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/08EMP_spaceworkers-3.jpg http://plusmood.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/08EMP_spaceworkers-4.jpg http://plusmood.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/08EMP_spaceworkers-5.jpg http://plusmood.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/08EMP_spaceworkers_L1.jpg http://plusmood.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/08EMP_spaceworkers_L2.jpg http://plusmood.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/08EMP_spaceworkers_L3.jpg http://plusmood.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/08EMP_spaceworkers_L4.jpg http://plusmood.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/08EMP_spaceworkers_L5.jpg http://plusmood.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/08EMP_spaceworkers_East-ele.jpg http://plusmood.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/08EMP_spaceworkers_West-ele.jpg http://plusmood.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/08EMP_spaceworkers_Section-1.jpg arquitectura: Spaceworkers via: plusmood http://fotos.sapo.pt/NhBNbSPkEPJel0WSPDkZ/ TEBC March 14th, 2012, 12:17 AM loved.. |
