Not just you Ozzy, I think the same. But suggesting this is deeply unpopular with most even if it is the only logical solution.
Yeah I get it, its the world famous City Ground and it makes for a lovely photo on Trent Bridge. But its falling apart, Not just the PT stand, is outdated and unsuitable and renovating the current stadium as we have seen is virtually impossible.

Surely it would be in the city's interest to have that 50 000 seater in the same location?

Still think demolishing and rebuilding on the same site is an option by rotating in 90 degrees. Its a hell of an ask though and goodness knows where we play while its being done.
By the way 50k possibly a touch excessive but 40k minimum absolutely.

There have also been whispers of Radcliffe on soar power station site. Would be great for me personally but would hate the move to out of town for sentimentality.

Nice interview with our new chairman in The Athletic, he is without doubt one of us who has suffered for years and wants to keep us in the PL.
He admits his position is with a nod towards stadium redevelopment. Thought some of the quotes were slightly vague in terms of the PT stand, clearly agrees that doing that alone is inadequate so next few months may be interesting in terms of where this all goes.

I think all the Premier League B teams are away. Just looked at the fixtures and that seems the case.

Would have been great to have drawn, Notts County, Derby and Mansfield as easy to get too and I reckon would be decent crowds.
