Amex capacity increase - if so where?

[giveusfalmerplease]

Not seen anyone ask this before so just curious, if we regularly max out capacity is there any opportunity for further increasing the Amex capacity or is that it? It would be a bit weird if the team manage to become a PL team playing virtual capacity each week with no chance to expand - dont fancy another 10 years of battling the council

 

[Goring-by-Seagull]

This again...

 

[Hammer15]

Oof, imagine the A27 junction if we were to expand.

 

[Medwayseagull]

Never seen anyone ask this before ! Now we know the newbies are coming out in force.

 

[Joshski]

Not going to happen, transport infrastructure is stretched already and Barber has said further expansion is too costly for the number of seats you would get. Only possible changes in future would be safe standing.

 

[sir albion]

I say dig down and add 15000 seats

[Cheshire Cat]

Smaller seats.

 

[Wilko]

Barber has mentioned the possibility of squeezing in a few more here and there but we are talking an extra 100 or so max.

 

[withdeanwombat]

Hey, how about Sheepcote Valley or the Cement Works out by Bramber?

 

[bn1&bn3 Albion]

Not without massive structural change to the stadium, so not for at least another 7/10 years I would expect.

 

[Megazone]

I'm starting to think we might need a new ground soon.

 

[ewe2]

I have often thought the East Stand corners could be reworked to gain a few extra seats.

Troll.

Nobody told you Falmer was temporary? Designed to get us to the top flight? Our new 70000 all seater is being built on re claimed land off the Marina.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

After a few months, the attendances will drop. People don't like watching a team lose.
That sounds negative, but realistically we will lose more than we win, in the Prem.

Probably cost less than a giant flagpole

Maybe they could build a lego stand near the bus car park ......suspended in the air by a crane. On 80 minutes the crane could bring the stand down to car ark level and fans could access the buses even earlier than now. We could name it The 80 minute stand!

Hot air balloons hovering over the stadium would give a few extra spectators within transport issues and HB&B could supply the hot air

Blimey .. they'd be a huge waiting list
