For a capacity crowd they'd have to be more than double the price of those of a capacity crowd at the Ricoh to gain the same ticket revenue.

Yes, if we stay at the Ricoh we will go backwards, which is why we need our own home. I would want more than 12K but it's a start. Not sure why you're "insulted" with the proposed initial capacity. Look at crowds this season despite being a point of the top and unbeaten at home. Maybe you should wonder why the stayaways aren't attending.

Hopefully, that won't make LAST start crying again about "slagging" off fans. If people can't be arsed to turn up then that's their problem.

The club have officially announced that they have no comment, which makes this feel a little more than the usual load of bollocks rumour.

Interestingly the club haven't denied it. I was expecting a total denial.

When we were in the championship the centre block season tickets were £500 - city centre would have far better options to park or the use of public transport.

Totally agree. I reckon there's something to this. Have the CT pulled their "Anderson made a simple geographical error" story?

I've never bought a season ticket yet as well you know. You'll probably won't even give a fuck when you're sat in your seat smirking how SISU got one over everyone in a half empty 12k stadium languishing at the wrong half of division 2. That's your mentality. You don't give a fuck about the club unless it can be used to stick two fingers up to everyone who's name is in the SISU book of naughty people and you can slap yourself on your smug back because in your tiny little mind you're superior to everyone else for buying a season ticket even though the club has been robbed of opportunity from a failed plan.

In case I've never told you before. You're a prick.

Which has happened how many times? Guess we need a 70,000 stadium then the Ricoh isn't big enough

I think that's why the club haven't outright denied it, because then Les Reid would be all 'Ooooooooooooooh, touched a nerve did I?' which would win him a shitload more awards.

A start? 12k is only the beginning of the end only.

Engage your brain and do the maths. We're going to have to be on one hell of a bad deal at the Ricoh to be worse off.

The location is great but stop fucking the club around. If there's scope for 20k rising then start as you mean to go on and build that in the first place to give the club a chance and the fans some hope.

A very poor idea. I can't see the site being suitable for a larger stadium. It is very limiting & unambitious.

In fact it seems more like a tactic to undermine Wasps.

So you have never had a go at there being only 12000 at the Ricoh?
But you are happy with a ground that holds only 12000..

Your right I should read the post.

Just waiting for the inevitable:thinking about:

Bring it on I say! We can always flog it and move back to the Ricoh when Wasps go bump.
My only worry is this... with the low capacity, if SISU were to leave, where will the thousands of NOPMers sit?

Yeah, taking the game away from its working class roots to the prawn sandwich brigade. How awful. I prefer the German model with good ticket prices.

I wouldn't be happy with 12k TO START WITH myself to be honest. Shows an incredible lack of ambition.

Eh? Make up your mind. First it's an insult as it's such a small capacity and now it's going to be half empty. My pea sized brain is confused by your flip flopping.

And I did laugh out loud at the bit where you say he was smirking as SISU will get one over everyone. The majority of this forum were orgasmic when Wasps rolled into town and did one over on SISU. OK, so it fucked the club over too, but hell, it was worth it wasn't it, just to get one over on "Timmy" et al.
