Because, although Fratton Park has a 20000 capacity, its very old, 112 years old. And its condition is deteriorating by the day, and a club at that level, should have a better quality stadium.
They wanted their people to realize how great a nation they are. They were also concerned about an uprising from their people who are not happy with their goverment and how repressive they can be at times so they built the stadium to demonstrate their will to listen to the people.
Located in the Olympic Green, the US$423 million stadium is the world's largest steel structure. The design was awarded to a submission from the Swiss architecture firm Herzog & de Meuron in April 2003, after a bidding process that included 13 final submissions. The design, which originated from the study of Chinese ceramics, implemented steel beams in order to hide supports for the retractable roof; giving the stadium the appearance of a "Bird's nest". Ai Weiwei, the artistic consultant, played a critical role in pushing the design to have unique Chinese characteristics. Ironically, the retractable roof was later removed from the design after inspiring the stadium's most recognizable aspect. Ground was broken in December 2003 and the stadium officially opened in June 2008.
For the London Olympiad, the land preparation for the stadium began in mid-2007, (with the official construction start date on 22 May 2008) and construction took four years (to 2011) to complete.
