We could build a 5000 seater and rent it to Wasps?

We should build one in London and then dangle a great big carrot on the M1

He's got a point though. That could have been the best part of £60k turned away today and if we got into the championship Tha could be a regular £60k lost per home game.

That's a lot of burgers to sell, car boot sales, conferences etc. etc. to make up the lost ticket revenue.

Was Impressive wasn't it. Up there with the majority local derby Boxing day numbers from the championship era
given that Wolves Blues Baggies Leicester would have brought 5-6k.

It looked great because it looks full, if the whole ground was open there would have been gaps and stuff!

Ha. I knew you'd come up with that one after I pointed out the obvious flaws in SISU's "master plan".

Like I said. He has a point.

He would have if a small stadium was actually being built... Still, it gives the opportunity to be negative after a great turnout and good crowd.

I'd actually say he was being positive. Accepting the mere suggestion of a 12-15k stadium as a way forward for the club is about as negative as it gets and any self respecting CCFC fan should be positive enough to say it.

The real danger of course is that we standby without saying anything or indeed as some have, championed the stupid notion SISU might just go ahead and build it and today has shown exactly why that would be negative. You seemed to have missed all that though because of the opportunity to have a cheap dig.

All Glen has done is point out the bleeding obvious.

He was responding to the op which does mention the crowd but that doesn't matter does it because as soon as you see him posting its like a red rag to a bull.

So be outraged when it's confirmed they are actually building a small stadium then?

any self respecting football fan would probably want to talk about football on a football forum wouldn't they?

No. Be outraged before it's confirmed so it doesn't get confirmed.

Not that it really matters, but Wasps are expecting 20,000 tomorrow.

Fantastic crowd today, will only increase if the form continues.

Probably, I just saw a sign at the Ricoh today highlighting the fact children get free tickets which should be given as 'presents'.
