My question on the attendance level certainly needs attending. Every project viability or business plan begins with known incomes, from which operational costs are deducted. Match day attendance is the only known income, as cup runs and TV monies are variable and staccato.

Current attendance levels make any project non viable. So where's the science behind increasing attendances back to whatever levels exist in their viability plan? I'm was a season ticket holder. They have me, and thousands like me on a database. They know who's going to Sixfields. They know who's not. There's been no engagement with the latter with regards potential attendance to put into any business plan.

They simply would not start constructing a new facility without viability plan, which in itself would be meaningless without input from those who provide the income. It's all not there. Like the site. Like the announcements.

Every bit of evidence points to this 'project' being no more than bluster. And if it is, it needs to be demonstrated as such, as it points toward the move out of the city as being wholly unnecessary

Likewise. using your assumptions, current attendance levels mean that moving back to the Ricoh is also unviable.

Current attendance levels will be a thing of the past if the club returns home. Crowds would be 10,000 minimum.
