About the other things, I can't tell you, because I didn't saw one single game in the last times... but about "There is nothing aroud", yeah, it is truth. The stadium works as a highway's center From the Stadium's hall, you can catch the highway to POrto, Viseu, Figueira da FOz or Coimbra. Near the stadium, many families spent their time in the shoppings... maybe in the next season, if Beira-Mar confirm the promotion, they can improve the show...
in a previous thread, it was mentioned that a report indicated that teams were losing money because of sky high maintenance fees for these new taj mahals!!! its been about 2 yrs since the EURO, and there are no signs of any development around the new stadium, and the way things run in portugal I do not forsee any development in the near future that will bring more ppl/commerce to the area thus increaseing $$ for the club.
