I'd prefer a stadium with one level all the way round.

Sounds just like transfer deadline day:
'A mate of mine who works there blah blah blah'
Usually turns out to be rubbish so expect this to be the same-75,000 would be a waste unless we won a serious amount of trophies over the next few years.

I know about 6 or 7 people who stopped going to the CoMS after a few years because it was a pain in the arse to get to and from the ground, they didn't like the stadium, they weren't enjoying the occasion, they went to 10 games at the start 2006 and didn't see a single goal that's £300 for nothing, in my Mams case because she wasn't well, and also with City having a huge amount of working class fans (this has been in the papers that the average City fan earns around £15k/yr!) the recession has hindered our attendances greatly!
and we had one, that's ONE (1), game where tickets were a fiver! and that was a sell out!
if I know 6 people, there must be THOUSANDS out there who are proper actual Mancunian City fans who just need re-encouraging to attent games and support the team! making transport links better, making the day out more enjoyable, making it a football stadium instead of a shit symetrical seating area with a pitch in the middle, making it cheaper, watching a good team, seeing goals, seein trophies, seeing us beat Barcelona instead of drawing 0-0 with Watford or losing to Leicester; will all massively increas our attendances!
There are EASILY 75,000 proper City fans in Manchester alone, easily! think of the size if the City and the history of us having 50-80,000 attendances throughout our history up until the 1980's!
60,000 would sell out next season! 75,000 would take a while longer but I reckon in 5 years it will be done! considering the population of this country, only a very small percentage actually go to the ground to support their teams, there are so many more people that can become foot supporters than at present!

Is it possible that the North and South stand will be raised above the east and west, vice versa to what it is now? That might be where the extra 12k is coming from.

Just no need for it at the moment and having thousands of empty seats every game would be deeply embarrassing. 48,000 is right on the money for the time being. I have no doubts there will be expansion in the future and at it will almost inevitably be three tiers on all sides.

You may be right, but say City were to bring in players like Villa, Ibrahimovic, Ribery, Gourcouff over the summer. Can you imagine demand for tickets? Im not saying this is going to happen but surely it is the right thing to do to get enough seats in just incase.
