Keep what we have but update it.

25,000/30,000 maximum is big enough for us.

A full rocking,noisy Selhurst as opposed to one that has 25/30k (if we're lucky) in a 40k stadium,apart from the odd game when every tom,dick and harry wants a ticket,cos they have supported Palace for years but just cant seem to get the less attractive games

We're not one of the big boys in this league, stay within our means, fill up what we have every game and then look where we are say 5 to 10 years down the road

And our average gate last season was ???
(in our 25+ thousand seater)

There is a massive potential to increase our attendances and fan base locally you only have to look at the number of kids wandering around croydon in arsenal /chelsea tops. This is of course linked directly to our success on the pitch and ability to remain in the prem. Championship footie next season would definately slow our growth whereas another year in the prem accelerate it. Stadium improvements are necessary in both scenarios.

I thought that bar a few hundred...most of our home games this season have been near sell outs. It's rarely completely 100% sold out because if you book late you can't get decent seats and are only offered singles or daft seats behind pillars.

sounds like a plan vancouver!

I understand most of a clubs income does not come from gate money. Rather it is tv, sponsership and merchandise. With this in mind perhaps Palace should pitch at a price that would ensure the stadium is completely full. If this means 40,000 capacity, go for it. There really is history of 35,000 to 40,000 at the Palace. Just when the MOT build a relief road to ease congestion more traffic appears! It will be the same with a stadium at Selhurst.
And how come my Dad took me and me bro every week, along with the bloke downstairs and his lot and many other families, but nowadays this could not be possible? FGootball needs to rethink the economics of it all.
