Look at Stoke, Southampton, Leicester and even West Ham and temporarily Borough.

All clubs of a comparable size to us whose gates grew when then expanded/moved.I agree that we've got to get the timing right, but if we want to move up to that middle tier premier league group and not be seen as "little old Norwich", we have expand eventually. Anyway, the City stand is old, cramped, and needs to be replaced soon.If you've done the tour and then compared it with the facilities you see on tv of other prem clubs, you know that's true.
