Also worth pointing out that we'd have to pay matchday costs whatever our situation including a partnership at the BPA. So not really an equivilent to a rent increase. It's an unavoidable cost for any football team whether that be renting, free hold ownwership or lease hold ownweship.

These are clubs who's owners have ambition and are willing to back that financially.

Depends. If our owners are planning on bringing success to the club it does. Future proof the stadium. It's planning for the future. As is planning a 15K stadium. Tells you everything you want to know about what our owners have planned for our future really. Shame a large section on here aren't...

While in decline. Impressive isn't it?

So even during 15years of decline we can still command big crowds from time to time. Best hope the decline continues so the 15K capacity at the BPA becomes adequate. Another 5 years should do it. If only we had owners capable of delivering this. ;)

I think the suggestion is that if we'd enjoyed success measurable to Burnley we'd be getting more than 17K. Hell we even managed it once this season on the mere hope of getting some success like Burnley. Imagine if we ever did get some success.

We haven't had a 30k stadium for the last 20years.

Depends on your definition of cost.

That was obviously the problem. You moved mine first and it took that long you haven't had chance to move anyone else's yet. Am I right?

If we can sustain a promotion push next season I don't see why it wouldn't be possible to average over 15K next season maybe even as high as 20K after Easter if we're in or strongly pushing for a top 2 place. Certainly looking at the way crowds were growing before we slipped it's not beyond the...

I didn't think commercial confidentiality is allowed? Oh that only count's for Wasps. Gotcha.

I'd imagine that they'll be high fiving at the prospect of their biggest competition (as you put it on another thread) deliberately downsizing and making it easier for them to fill the void first. If I didn't know better I'd say they're your paymaster but the truth is they know that they can...

Got to be the major question. As TF and CRFC are at the meeting I'm guessing if asked that will get glossed over with waffle and filibuster. Best thing the SCG can do is really push them on plans for the BPA. If pushed hard enough they'll either trip themselves up or have a half sensible plan...

So what's the point of moving to a stadium that's going to lock out paying customers then?

Realistically if we're stuck in a 15k stadium with no prospect of expansion we ain't going to get to the premier league ever. Unless we fall on a multi billionaire with ambitions of doing a Bournemouth with us.

It leaves them options. We will be renting tennants at the Ricoh so moving on will be relatively easy. If we're stuck in a partnership at the BPA stuck with a capacity of 15K and no prospect of increasing that what options will that leave new owners with ambition? Are CRFC going to buy us out...

Because as everyone reminds you when you dare say something bad about SISU they won't be here forever. Yet some clearly want their legacy to be hamstringing the next owners with an inadequate stadium for growth on a it will be alright, fingers crossed approached to further development of the BPA...

Like I said. Dismissed when the outcome doesn't fit. Thankyou for proving me correct.

Cough cough Wasps sub forum poll cough cough ;)

No.I mean how polls on this site get dismissed when the results don't fit.
