dayday Posted 1 May 2017 Posted 1 May 2017 We need a bigger stadium and 42,000 would be ideal, It doesn't matter if we don't fill it, because some games we will. As long as everybody who wants to go, can, then we wouldn't get this can't get a ticket anymore saga. I hate it when people call us little Leicester because we're not little Leicester, and a bigger stadium will lose that tag. And this is the ideal time to do it.

It may be best to analyse attendance next season before deciding on an expansion to the stadium. Mid table, no Champions league and run off the mill games for the first time in years will be an indicator of how many drop offs we'll see. Hope we can fill it next season every game. If we do there is no question we need to get to 38 to 40 thousand capacity.

Lets hope she doesn't leave or someone gets in there before me eh?

Yes, and I think it's pretty much common knowledge now that the list will be put to better use by replacing the current scheme with a cheaper points based system. A much better idea to encourage those who want tickets for the glamour games to turn up for cup games etc.

Ted Maul Posted 7 May 2017 Posted 7 May 2017 Interesting that there's talk about Top building a new ground at his Belgian club- they recognise that a club's infrastructure goes a long way to influencing success on the field, and I think it is only a matter of time before we unveil plans for an expansion. It would be interesting to see what a fresh poll would look like now...
Spudulike Posted 7 May 2017 Posted 7 May 2017 Was the issue with the building behind the East Stand ever resolved ?? Perhaps that's the key and reason for the hold up.

Carrow Road holds 27,000 and they fill it most weeks. If they had a 35,000 capacity they wouldn't fill it. But we have a bigger fan base than them. Tottenham and Everton are moving into larger capacity. Tottenham are basically gonna double their attendance figures. We need to take advantage of our siccess. I don't wanna us to remain like another Southampton or Derby.
Wymsey Posted 7 May 2017 Posted 7 May 2017 Can't see any expansion from starting to be constructed by at least this time next year. Has any expansion plan even been submitted/approved anyway?

ROB-THE-BLUE Posted 7 May 2017 Posted 7 May 2017 17 minutes ago, FoxinNotts said: Just east stand?probably Yeah makes sense to me. Foundations are already there for it. Bump the capacity up to 35000 and fill it for a couple of years. If we're still filling it and established in the Prem then expand again

FoxinNotts Posted 7 May 2017 Posted 7 May 2017 I'd like to see King Power invest in building a tall hotel/retail/casino complex called say "King Power Tower". Could have a public swimming pool also, to replace St Margaret's
