With the north and East sold out the West could very well increase attendances if it was redeveloped so I’m not sure about that.
The north would be ideal though despite being expensive. Still so painful to see all that wasted space and capacity.
Anything you build with seats will reduce what is currently standing unless it's on 2 levels which is less likely with the houses behind.He said he could make it nicer but hard to make it bigger
Whereas North has unused space so a direct increase, except, as Carter and Minards found, to take it back further you'd have to lift the roof, which suddenly lifts the cost in millions.
What do you mean seats? I don’t think there was any plans to make the west seating. I believe it’s to be standing.
It’s a real shame with the north what it will cost to correct it. Years ago it never had a roof so maybe we can just remove it completely and just sort the terracing and look to add a new roof at a later date.
I’m sure Matt will find a way to enable growth. Looking forward to seeing what’s coming next whether it’s west or north.
So if you keep it standing, how are you going to increase capacity?
Does changing standing to seating increase capacity? I would have said the opposite.
Without the dimensions and detailed plans of the area how would I know for sure. But I would imagine seats would lower rather than higher it. I just don’t know where you got the seating from and was curious to see where you’d heard it from.
Potentially though with those boxes being demolished there could be some extra space generated at the back which could increase slightly by adding extra step of terracing for example or there could be limited capacity due to condition of terracing on there similar to north I don’t know.
But if there is a possibility to increase capacity on the west after a few sellouts this season then it should be explored at the very least.
You appear to be saying that seating is the way to go to increase capacity. If that’s the case then that should be explored too.
