As a club, Southampton had been founded at St Mary's church in 1885 and were initially known as St Mary's FC and then Southampton St Mary's during their early years. The Club have signalled their aim to be kicking off the 2020/21 season at the new ground.

However,  initially, the stadium will be restricted to a capacity of 14,000 and will only have three sides. The image below of an artists impression of how the new stadium might look is supplied courtesy of the Forest Green Rovers website where more images of the proposed stadium can be viewed. Having been thwarted so far in finding a nearby suitable site, speculation has now focussed on the Linford Christie Athletics Stadium, which is located in the Wormwood Scrubs area, within the same borough of Hammersmith & Fulham, around half a mile away from Loftus Road. The building of the 8,112 capacity all-seated stadium at Monks Cross, which is located just over four miles away from the centre of York, is part of a larger development, including a cinema and leisure complex with swimming pool. The new stadium is billed to be the 'greenest football ground in the World' being eco-friendly and to be constructed of wood. However, it is still unlikely that this area will be used for football matches, as it lacks any spectator facilities, such as turnstiles, a concourse, food/drink outlets, and toilets. This would be achieved by adding an additional tier to the North, South and East Stands. So at long last, the stand will be all-seated. The Port Vale Supporters Club have begun fundraising to raise £100,000 to have these works undertaken. The Jarrold (South) Stand has also been built in such a way that a second tier could also be added to that stand too. The stadium has been built in such a way and the necessary foundations have been put in place to further expand the stadium capacity to 20,000. West Ham were granted use of London's Olympic stadium following the 2012 games and were able to move from their former home at Upton Park in 2016 once several years of conversion work, making it compatible for both football and athletics, had been completed. Aston Villa have the biggest stadium in the Championship, with their famous Villa Park home large enough to hold more than 42,000 fans.

The building of the new ground is part of a wider development of the area around the stadium, including a largely residential area with some 1,000 homes, plus a medical centre and retail space. This could add approx. This will also involve extending the roof area. Thanks to Christophe Pene for providing the photo below taken in February 2020 showing the demolished area: The Club are hoping to start the building of their new stadium on the site of the former Wimbledon Greyhound Stadium in May 2019. The new stand will be quite sizeable, having a capacity of just under 9,000. If the club then proceed after this to add another tier to the McEwans Stand the final capacity would be around 64,000'.
