They should have built the entire stadium a little bit further to the right.

I reckon once we are mathematically safe plans for an extension will be kicked into motion.
We have ambitious owners who are not messing around and demand is huge.
For the higher profile games so far this season we could have had crowds of 55,000 to 60,000 without much bother.

I'd have thought they'd wait 2 or 3 years. See what renewals are like with price increases first.

I can't see anyone not renewing for next season even with a substantial price increase its not going to be a shock everyone expecting it. Especially with thousands waiting for tickets they even suspended the waiting list

Im expecting at least £130 increase for me , going from my early bird price to the price offered when we were promoted

You then lose the sell out effect, any extension won't happen for a good few years.

Capped at a 1000.

Closed at 3,000 I think. They're no way that many won't renew. If we somehow managed to get into Europe, even more so.

It doesn't say that's all its says on SAFC website
Due to a high volume of supporters joining the waiting list for 25/26 season tickets, we have had to make the decision to close the list.

If we extend to 55,000 and continue to do well on the pitch we would sell out no problem.
A good chunk of the extra seats would be hospitality. Quinns, Founders, Monty Suite and every single executive box sold out well before this season started so there is a need for increased capacity already.

Some might like. It's going up around one hundred quid.

For everyone that doesn't renew there'll be a hundreds after the tickets

That's a different point.

I have every confidence you are right but the second season in my book will potent our success for years to come ....Lose your manager, lose three of your best players and dont replace them with the same quality or better would cause any club to struggle.....Its very hard for even clubs with loads of money to get the right fit of manager (easy for them to hire the best on paper but it dont always work out)
The whole group has done a magnificent job this season recruiting and integrating 14 new players and getting them to play a system that works but most importantly getting them invested in the project.
In truth RLB has done a magnificent job and i hope it continues for years to come and i hope to be surprised 9(in a good way)by this January window!
It would be near impossible to start building this summer but i would hope of news for the year after!In truth it would set the positivity meter to eleven and that can only be a good thin for the club and the city!

We will outgrow the manager or he will outgrow us
It’s normal - he’s 50 and will be ambitious

Very true but at a guess the latter might be more likely but i just hope he stays long enough to get us established and can cope with his loss.It would be great if we were at a stage like many topish teams in the prem who get a dodgy manager or two and a less than stellar group of players but the club still never looks like getting relegated! That would be bliss!

It’ll happen. We have extremely ambitious owners who don’t share the negativity of some.
