With the inevitable introduction of safe standing, ours will be 62k
Yes BUT!!! They’re not doing to have any horrible ugly turbines within a mile of their ground are they?? See, gotcha there.
The first phase of the plans includes a brand-new North Stand connecting into Trinity Stand, and enhancements to the existing Trinity Stand which will see capacity for the stadium increase to over 50,000.

Not like you to bend the truth to fit an agenda Dave.
He needs to find out, if there‘s any wind turbines near by, how high it is and what pattern the brick work is first.
Also, where the nearest Orange Lodge Memorial Hall is and whether there’s any unsightly, pesky listed walls nearby too.

By the same token Villa's would rise by a good few thousand also.

Charge the right price for tickets and you could have more than that.

Same - although Im more bothered about the quality of the build both internal and external than of the capacity tbh.
Would rather a 53k BMD that looks boss than a say 58k Oylmpic Stadium that is awful inside.
Anfield and Villa Parks extensions both look poor externally imo.

Yeah, I'm not a fan. There should be symmetry. But the issue is capcity: that club has the ambition to get to 60,000...which for most of the large supported claubs in the PL that has to be the minimum...only reached for us by a belief that safe standing can do it.

Oh, I agree. I've said that on this thread years ago when the deal was announced.
But we have to have the ability to go bigger.
They’ve announced a consultation on works which will take it to 50,000. They could have a consultation on plans to take it to 60,000.
But they’re not.
Wyness said we needed scope to have a 70,000 seater stadium at Kirkby.
Words are easy to say, aren’t they?
No Dave, it literally says 50k.

I'm suprised we haven't tried tapping into the students that come to the city to study.
3x Uni's + Edge Hill down the road and there is big potential to attract and convert young future Blues there with pay at the gate tickets.
For me we focus too much on season ticket holders which is great - but like you and others have said we could have pushed slightly higher and aimed those seats at students and those fans who dont have a season ticket.
