Unpopular opinion, but self-harming policies like this are why we will never become a "big" club. For example, I genuinely think policymakers at LCFC are fearing the stadium expansion because it would mean supply increases (seats) further to come closer to the high demand (our fans), thus there will be less of a monopoly for ST holders and members on seats. The former and latter both being dominated by certain demographics that contribute to the lack of atmosphere, while the stadium expansion will give rise to a more energised rejuvenated audience who don't have a long billing history or any for that matter, with the club.
Whats ironic is, King Power will lose much more revenue in the long run with the current state of its ticketing and infrastructure. Top Khun and his family are great and intelligent people, but the Srivaddhanaprabha family have delegated too many aspects of the club to senior employees who don't really seem all that competent.
