Not Sunderland. They have a 49k seat stadium and average 41k. They always have the lowest % seats filled in the Prem.
If all goes to plan and we are in the stadium for the 20/21 season. Is that enough time for all the required transport upgrades and any of the talked about regeneration projects to complete or is there a risk we end up in a stadium where for a couple if years we are in a pretty baron location that is not easily accessible?
I agree with 55k. Liverpool will expand to 60k when they do the ARE but it will be akin to putting lipstick on a pig. A new high spec stadium in a regenerated Dockland location should make more in non match day revenue then Anfield will. I really don't care about having a few thousand less seats. 50-55k would be more intimate and the atmosphere less diluted.
They aren't doing it though are they, they've shelved the plans by all accounts.
There is renewed optimism that there will be news later in the year of redesigned ANfield road end proposal that will take their capacity over 60k
I have a feeling that it's got nothing to do with what they can fill...They can't fill what they have.....
4. It was an arbitrary figure used by EFC/LCC in their cost calculations for a preliminary proposal to local councillors with regards to establishing an SPV which is subject to review, discussion and changeWe should be worried about the preliminary 50k capacity figure. It is there for one of three reasons:
1. It is what the club want
2. It is the most LCC/Peel will allow for the site
3. We do not think we can afford anything bigger
Any of these three would be troubling. Be clear nobody goes to all this trouble to negotiate complex deals with Peel & LCC and then puts a meaningless figure at the heart of the submission.
Echo/twitter polls & the dialogue on here suggest a majority of fans think it is too small. We'll see if the claimed consultation listens and changes things or if it is just used as a cover to justify the existing plan. Elstone has previous for the latter.
