...until they redevelop the Arfah.

 


We don't do possession; we do defense and attack. Everything else is just wa**ing with a football.

Already posted that I love the design .. but really like the stylised “wings” / Thor’s helmet wings from Thor 3 .. also really like the vid that the club posted with the architect discussing some of the design points.

About the right size for us, if we continue to stay in the Prem and the and they take the club to the next stage, then I guess there will be a rolling upgrade to another stand in the decades to push us to 40, then 45 and so on.

Apart from the changes to the main stand , is anything else planned around the ground to improve facilties, i.e toilets in the AW and generally around the ground.

If anyone has seen anything in the proposal that includes non main stand expenditure and improvement please point it out

Hopefully it is there and I missed it

Thanks

It has been shown the larger the stadium the more attend. Palace would easily fill a 40,000 as those who don't bother to try to get tickets now I'll do so if they are more easily available. There are many football fans who will have a day out with friends a family if the chance is local. Well London is on the doorstep.

That’s interesting, do you have any proof to back this up ? Is it based on all teams ? Or just Prem teams ?

If that is the case, have we sold ourself short ?

I hear they are putting new toilet seats and toilet roll holders in the AW, everything else will be as is.

You're going to need to explain this I'm afraid. Where has it been shown?

Where is your evidence to back up we would average gates larger than 34,000?

This project, if it proceeds, takes us to ~34k. We can test the water with that (i.e. can we fill the enlarged stadium) and get revenue up by 15m allegedly, (I say allegedly because I've not seen that figure given by the club myself, but then I've not watched all the vidoes). I find that estimate absolutely extraordinarily high, but hey-ho.

If correct & successful & we don't have a post-Brexit economic crash that destroys the Premier League, that will take us up a notch as a club (and that stand will be huge within the context of Selhurst.) And at 15% of the capital cost, the extra revenues also seem to offer scope for a little return on investment for the Americans (and give them a better asset to sell).

If we are filling our part of 34k routinely, then we can consider another expansion. I believe the club has said the White Horse would be done. If they can add a tier (another 2k, let's say) then we are up to 36k. They might even manage that without closing it for a season, I'm guessing/wondering if I read somewhere.

The big, big test will be the AW. Can't see them managing that without eating massively into the gates for at least a season. But if they did rebuild it, we could get above 40k potentially -- testing local appetite for tickets throughout, and not suddenly having a far bigger capacity filled with disinterested tourists.

My guess is that the footprint as is could take low 40s stadium capacity, and getting there in stages is boringly sensible.

Is about building the core base of fans...if we went straight to 40k and went down it'd look like a white elephant. This way we build slowly but more importantly improve the ability to bring in revenue from outside the club with better conference facilities etc.

You can see from the plan (attached) just how much bigger it is compared to the current stand.

Hard to believe that will get planning permission.
