Considering that sponsorship is a big part of meeting FFP, I still like the idea of making it round and calling it Roman's Arena. We could have a live lion called Stamford prowling the touchline, jets of fire erupting at half time, the players could arrive in chariots, Roman would sit in judgement and anyone who got the dreaded thumbs down would be sold.
The outside could be carved effigies of our iconic players. If you want to get really melodramatic, we make the opposition stands and dressing rooms look like dungeons, every fan gets a free toga and a laurel with their flag, and all our songs are converted into Latin. The hotel is replaced by an aquaduct that would both allow us to have free bathhouses for the fans inside, and supply the locals with fresh water, thus justifying our position in the community. Every food purchase is accompanied by a scantily clad woman who will feed you grapes as you watch the game. If you're married or in a long term relationship, the club will pay to have your partner made over.
