We will only truly be happy when someone is going around the pitch firing T-shirts from a big T-shirt firing gun.
Been two a couple of NFL games where firing t-shirts into the crowd was very prominent. I hated it. The yanks lapped it up.We will only truly be happy when someone is going around the pitch firing T-shirts from a big T-shirt firing gun.
Well they’re gonna have to get rid of the leopard print training tops somehow.We will only truly be happy when someone is going around the pitch firing T-shirts from a big T-shirt firing gun.
Meccano style!i'm always amazed that stadiums aren't built to be more future proof.
we should be able to pop some or all of the roof off, add another layer, then pop the roof back on.
an afternoons work, worst case.
What scope is there to add capacity and some stage in the future - ignoring the politics and ownership issues? It's penned in by the road and rail but another 10k seats might be doable...
Maybe in the year 3000?Given how much of a white elephant that train station is, they could revisit building a proper one whilst extending the CBS at the same time and combining the two. A football stadium with an underground train station.
I know it will never happen, but it's a nice useless thought.
Nah, we'll be living underwater by then.Maybe in the year 3000?
Why dont we think of now giving the away fans less capacity, 2000 to 2500 and we have more
There was a thread about how big our club was potentially. Plenty on here saying we would never fill the CBS and how we are really a small club with little potential. I was not one of them.There were lots of moments where we could doubt Fisher (he gave us plenty) but when he proposed that small stadium, he proved himself utterly unfit to run our club, showing a total lack of understanding of the club, the city and the fanbase.
It's not up to Doug, it's up to us - We need to storm the fucker a la the opening scenes of Saving Private Ryan.Doug needs to find a way to get that bit of block 9 open
It's got to be safer for them to be with the home fans and there will surely be insurance consequences to make that change. I don't see how it helps one bit merely to squeeze out 50 or 100 extra home tickets.One of the last games of the season we had a row of stewards in our stand to separate the fans why not put then in the away fans and cut their numbers instead.
When you run out of tickets for home fans you need more tickets the away fans are the least priority in the ground, I would say they would be safe in the away section in ground trouble is minimal now as they have cameras all over the place.It's got to be safer for them to be with the home fans and there will surely be insurance consequences to make that change.

It's about 100-200 seats about £3.5-7k potential extra ticket income per match for the big sell out games.It's got to be safer for them to be with the home fans and there will surely be insurance consequences to make that change.

We'll average more than Sheff U, they were only marginally higher than us last season. Southampton averaged 29.4K and Ipswich 28.8K in 23/24. Derby 29K last year. Birmingham's capacity is apparently 29.4K so will average less than that. Hopefully Leicester crowds will reduce from their 23/24 level of 31.2K if they finally get punished for their cheating.Leicester,Ipswich, Southampton, Derby, Sheffield United, Cov, Brum, will all have good crowds The likes of Norwich, Boro, Baggies will be next.
No chance Leicester will be close to selling out if they have a bad season, their ground was half empty whenever I watched them this seasonWe'll average more than Sheff U, they were only marginally higher than us last season. Southampton averaged 29.4K and Ipswich 28.8K in 23/24. Derby 29K last year. Birmingham's capacity is apparently 29.4K so will average less than that. Hopefully Leicester crowds will reduce from their 23/24 level of 31.2K if they finally get punished for their cheating.
We averaged a smidgeon under 28K last season. Stands to reason that our average will exceed 29K next year with the extra ST sales.
I sat with 6K on a cold Tuesday night for a league game against FGR just 7.5 years go. What a journey we're on!

In my opinion the proposal was little more than a negotiating tactic.There were lots of moments where we could doubt Fisher (he gave us plenty) but when he proposed that small stadium, he proved himself utterly unfit to run our club, showing a total lack of understanding of the club, the city and the fanbase.
We've lost Sunderland and Leeds who sold out. Luton who brought 1.7K, Plymouth (1.2K) and Cardiff (1.8K). Can't find how many Burnley brought but don't think that sold out.Our attendances next season will hinge on the away followings. Not every team will be bringing 3k
I remember going to the Checkatrade first game the year we won it against Northampton. Very few there that day.We'll average more than Sheff U, they were only marginally higher than us last season.

Block F.. I’m posh
I'm a wannabe posh, I dunno what you think but I reckon all the other posters are coke heads.Block F.. I’m posh
Think this was created by someone on here.
I’ve snaffled a couple of them up for gifts for people in work. Basically from here on in all the gifts I give people will be purchased from the discounted section of the Cov merch shop.Well they’re gonna have to get rid of the leopard print training tops somehow.
Quite a few on here agreed with him too!Hilarious Fisher peddled the idea of a smaller stadium where in fact we need bigger.
The original Arena 2000 plan was for a 45k stadium if I recall correctly.
Who's been having a stab with hopefully not necessarily accurate information on here?
