The Infrastructure Projects

I don't think we need 50K either.

I think 40K is fine.

Chelsea, Brighton and Villa all recently been in Europe and don't have 50K.

All those teams mentioned are looking to expand though

We never got near 50,000 during the glory years and in those days it was turn up at the gate and pay.

I can only ever remember the turnstiles being closed early because the ground was full on a few occasions. One of those occasions was against Leeds in the League Cup semi final. Me and my mate ended up getting in with the Leeds fans then managed to scarper over the pitch into the Trent End before the match kicked off.

TBF attendances accross the board are much higher now, the game is massively well marketed and the Premier League is so popular.

If you have got 20k season ticket holders, another 11k on a waiting list, there are around 20k home members and then you have away fans.

A top half Prem side in a catchment like we have, could easily get 40k every week ,and for the top 6 sides visiting pushing to 50k
