If we do get promoted, would you?

Have a look at Sunderlands stadium of light any expansion would follow suit i'd wager.

pointless reply to test my theory about posting time and date

[Oldtimeram]

I think it would make sense (eventually), but only open the extended area when needed, so as to not having the ground looking half full for less attractive games.

If we got relegated, we could leave the away fans up in the gods!

[nickyd63]

Yes for sure i wonder if our friends up the road are considering lowering there capacity?

[Ram59]

Well, they've got plenty of spare pink seats, maybe we could get them painted black!

[Anywho]

I believe that when built it was designed to be
modified at a later date to make it @ 46,000 capacity. As it would be steelwork it could be manufactured off sit & installed during closed season.

I thought it was 42,000.

Foundations suitable to take expansion to that by adding another tier to North, East and South Stands.

Of course that means it would be feasible to do it in stages, say, doing the East Stand first.

Yes, and then lower the prices to fill the thing! Set a standard of low ticketing prices and stick to it even through the good times. Sky's money will bankroll us, the fans will get what they want and the players will have 45000 fans behind them each week. Win win win.

Never going to happen mind.

Yes, certain games will attract more than capacity. Hasn't our capacity lowered since moving the away fans now anyway? Probably only 500 or so but it makes a difference to the individual.

Where would you put the extra capacity though? Personally I'd do the East stand, as I wouldn't want to decimate the South stand.

A massive kop behind the goal, for Rams fans only. Or rip the seats out and you'll get more in without to much cost!
