David Jordan is a former CEO of the Glasgow Warriors, a professional Scottish rugby union club playing in the Pro14.
"Because we have been closely involved for the past two years we have been able to help with a design which has cut the athletics track from ten lanes to eight, and ensured there are no long jump pits in front of the stand, to really get supporters as close to the rugby as possible, and while there is still a bit to go yet before it is finalised, if it was up and running as planned in 2007 I'd feel quite proud of the work we've done.
"[3] The deals that Jordan worked on, involved Glasgow Warriors being given full operational and commercial control as anchor tenants of a Scotstoun Stadium, with a 6078 capacity, in 2007 – and a short term move to Firhill.
"We've been working hard on this project with Glasgow City Council over the past two years and it is very exciting for professional rugby here.
It will give us a home we can call our own and a single location we can use for all Glasgow representative matches – at age grade as well as pro level – along with an administrative and training base.
