Aberdeen's New Stadium Recommended For Approval

Last Updated : 16-Feb-2011 by

CITY planners have recommended Aberdeen Football Club's proposed new stadium on the outskirts of the city for approval.

The Dons hope to build the 21,000-seater stadium at Loirston Loch near Cove at a cost of up to £40m.

The council meets on Wednesday 23 February, with potential economic benefits among the reasons for the recommendation for approval - but there have been more than 100 letters of objection.

The stadium, which will be lit at night by a red glow, is set to include a gym, a club shop, museum and supporters' bar.

The application follows a public consultation, and Scottish ministers will have the final say.
