I think this would be the 10th biggest ground in the PL. Quite impressive. |  | | |  |

12-13k on a cold miserable night watching MMs snore fest. |
Ahhh, but were you there as part of the 8,828 v Stockport in Nov 1997? We lost 2-0 and were lucky to get nil.
Times change.
But yes, you are right to raise the endless misery of the MM snorefest. Skuse, Douglas, Hyam. Shiver. |  | | |

"Fully committed to the Premier League"?
Well, no doubt the owners (& supporters) would like Town to get there & stay there. Our realistic aim is the Brighton/Brentford type of model but that doesn't require a 40,000 capacity stadium & given the uncertainty of football, increasing the stadium size looks a very dubious investment. |
This. |  |

We have 6k on the waiting list, it isn't dropping off any time soon |
Yet there are tickets available in every part of the ground for Saturday......
The ground is perfect for us. Even if we get promoted, match day incomes are dwarfed by TV rights.
Expanding our stadium is a needless distraction. See 25 years ago. |  |

Many of which will be seats handed back by season ticket holders the Saturday just before Xmas. Our average attendance is less than 0.5% down on last season. As an established PL club, it’s clear we could pull in much larger crowds - and don’t forget we need to give up more seats to the opposition in the PL.
This is sensible planning building for where the club wants to be. | | | |

If the ground is perfect now then surely expanding the stadium in the past wasn't needless? |  | | |

If we build it, they will come. The current demand to sit in restricted view seats in stands with poor facilities is not the barometer. There's a prestige and qualitative value to drawing 40k. We as a club need to belong in the Prem. Demand there will take care of itself. | | | |

Rebuilding 2 stands on the back of 1 successful PL season was risky, especially as it was funded by securitising future season ticket income. That's probably why Town went into admin after relegation, although all 3 clubs relegated that season eventually went into administration, partly thanks to the collapse of ITV Digital. |  |
