		Tigers supporters say a move to Walkers Stadium will result in matches being played in front of empty, and therefore lifeless, stadium sprawls, where beer is sold from colourless concrete bars, where queuing efficiency and millilitre pump precision take precedence over banter and old friends.
		It is not beyond the marketeers of the stadium or the club to ensure that more than that number are in the Walkers as often as possible.
		A move towards self-ownership by a stable and well-run business such as Leicester RFC is not a risk, and for a city where sport is pivotal to the community, and where there is a comfortable empathy between the soccer and rugby teams, it will become a vibrant place to be on Saturday afternoons.

		I don't think this this will be a problem if both City and the Tigers end up doing a 'ground share' of the Walkers Stadium, as then only one team can play on any given day.
		On entering the stadium, we were very impressed with the concourse facilities, except for the fact you cannot buy alcohol (we were to discover why a bit later)...
		The away section is right in one corner of the stadium and our seats were in the middle of this, right at the back so we had a view across both stands on either side of us.

		Plenty of street parking to be found (especially around the Upperton Road area), although as Greg Barclay warns; 'don't double park as the traffic wardens tend to have a field day at every match'.
