Has it disappointed you that were not expanding the stadium,

[Marvin]

The fact is that expanding the ground now would be an embarrassment. We can't 'properly' sell out every home game with the capacity we are at now, so adding an extra 10,000-15,000 seats would cause a bigger problem. It would mean more hate from the casuals on here and more stick from opposition fans seeing a sea of blue seats. Wait a good few years before even thinking about expanding. Constantly challenging for trophys and a real standing section are the key.

Every home league game has sold out, in fact we've been selling tickets in the away team's normal allocation such is the demand. Average at the moment is 46,976 which is just 400 or so below capacity entirely down to teams like WBA not filling their own reduced allocation

Still haven"t sold out QPR yet,a possible title decider!

It's not even out of match priority stage and on to general sale yet! Give it time, games always go to general sale (except vs. United).

I know,but thought with the possible importance of this match it would have sold out quicker

Seriously. Im not bothered about there being empty seats but if we went from 48k to 60k i doubt we would sell out at the minute. We would sell 50k for most games but above that im not convinced. I can't see any major repricing process either.

I dont disagree with that.

I do disagree with people saying we aren't selling out league games this season though.

Hence the which bit query you loon. Your obviously in the pro expansion camp. So say we did expand, would the council want to renegotiate the rental charge?
