Stadium :cool: granted it's small but effectively designed.

France second division club Amiens’s ground, Stade de la Licorne (The Unicorn Stadium).

The profile of the roof is distinctive to say the least, although the design might not be suitable for use in exposed parts of the Pennines in February. The glass looks best at night during floodlit games.

However, the cavernous roof space is more than aesthetic. It has been designed with expansion in mind. The architects have thoughtfully incorporated the requisite space and structural capacity for a second cantilever tier (which has already been installed in the central part of the main stand). At it’s full potential, the stadium’s capacity will reach 20000.

Men I can't believe that stadium. For a second division? WTF? Thats the continent for you. Still it gives the dome a run for its money! French masterpiece that was.
