Scunthorpe United reveals stadium plans
Scunthorpe United Football Club (SUFC) has revealed plans for a new 12,000-capacity stadium in the town.
To be located close to the club's current Glanford Park ground, the stadium is set to be developed as part of a mixed-use project which will also include a 120-room hotel, a multi-use indoor arena, community sports pitches and a new transport hub for the town.
The initial designs and masterplan have been created by Frank Whittle Partnership.
As reported in Sports Management in September, SUFC chair Peter Swann has been keen to provide the club with a new home and move the club from the 9,000-capacity Glanford Park.
Swann said his priority is to increase the club's commercial opportunities and to make operations more economically sustainable ? as well as move to a site which is more accessible and could potentially attract more supporters.
