    We have the facilities to support a PL club. We just need the team.

    I seem to remember you saying a 20k stadium or thereabouts would suit us fine. It obviously would if our only ambition was Championship football mediocrity.
    Well you seem to remember something else then

    I thought the initial size of CCS was just about right and stick with that

    But we proved that, even a relegation threated side in the PL would virtually fill the extra tier. I agree with Hilts. If our ambition is a return to the PL, those extra fans = revenue.

    Not to mention the fact Ninian park held about 40,000 when I started going, with about 3000 regularly there. Just the 37,000 empty spaces every week….

    Glad they reduced the capacity when we were only getting a few thousand on Sludge's advice.

    It was shocking mind, 55,000 rattling around in 60,000+ ground against Leeds in the Cup.
