Back on the City Ground theme I would be surprised if new Peter Taylor stand would add more than 3k capacity maybe a bit more filling in TE corner.
The need is not just the extra seats but also an overhaul of how we commercialse the club. We are miles behind most other clubs in terms of function rooms and corporate facilities despite being pretty well located for this purpose, I would assume this will be a major factor in any decision.
The BC stand too is horribly dated, the boxes are pretty awful, I think under Fawaz less than half of them were actually occupied, again another revenue source particularly if we get promoted. Even then the design with no external seat option for the boxes is very dated.
I love my walk over Trent Bridge and prematch pint around the ground as much as anyone but I do wonder if you were to take a cold hearted financial view then you would conclude the best option is to start over.
