They already have had that opportunity

BUT THEY CHOSE NOT TO.

18 home league games last season were not Sold Out.

Just because we took 8,700 fans to Arsenal in 2017 does not mean we would sell that many tickets every time we visit the Emirates!

      - mostly cos away areas not sold-out (n/m) (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Jul 29, 15:14:26
        
        Not really true though - almost always 500-1000 seats left in the corners (NCFC) - Yellalee, Jul 29, 16:12:06

        details (n/m) (NCFC) - Pixelman, Jul 29, 15:45:08
- Does anyone have a realistic estimate of how much it would cost? (NCFC) - mr carra, Jul 29, 14:52:25
  - The rough guide used to be £1m per 1,000 seats... (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Jul 29, 15:30:21
  - Our 2012 estimate was £20m for an extra 7k seats (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Jul 29, 15:04:14
    - IMHO 20 m would be way off if you factor in interest. (n/m) (NCFC) - usacanary, Jul 29, 15:12:24
  - Yes. (NCFC) - usacanary, Jul 29, 15:03:40
  - 9,000 seats would equal £9,000,000,000 then... (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Jul 29, 14:57:25
  - Didn't they say £1m per seat? (n/m) (NCFC) - Trent_Canary, Jul 29, 14:54:57
    - Not sure you have your maths right there. More likely to be 1000 per seat. (n/m) (NCFC) - earlydoors, Jul 29, 14:55:59
      - Yep. My fat fingers pressed an m instead of a k. (n/m) (NCFC) - Trent_Canary, Jul 29, 15:03:20
