Stadium plans sunk by the Royal Navy
Plans for Portsmouth's harbourside stadium have been sunk by the Royal Navy as they are using the land as a base for military aircraft.
The club have been forced to re-locate and have announced new plans to build a waterside stadium on Horsea Island.
Chief Executive Peter Storrie says that the plans include at least 1,500 new homes to be built next to the M.O.D's diving school, building a new access road & bridge across tipner lake and possibly the building of a new railway station for Paulsgrove.
The new stadium itself will be built on the 15-acre site next to the diving school and the design will be similar to the one planned in the harbourside
