Now this is something I can get on board with.

I have long said that increasing the hotel corner giving another 1-2K fans plus maybe going to some areas of safe standing would possibly make economic sense.

McNasty talked about also have a temp stand in the corner for bigger games.

        wiki is a crock, likewise transfermkt (NCFC) - Henclrikus, May 5, 21:05:21
        
        👍 I was just using it as a basic sense check of something that didn’t seem right (n/m) (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, May 5, 21:09:04
        
        This is no place for sense. Away with you. (n/m) (NCFC) - Henclrikus, May 5, 21:11:02
        
        Im finding a lot of errors on that site....one example (NCFC) - usacanary, May 5, 21:03:29
  - we stand corrected then (n/m) (NCFC) - ghostof barry butler, May 5, 20:39:25

  - Leeds and Ipswich have the most fair weather fans. (n/m) (NCFC) - usacanary, May 5, 20:33:00
- There has been a genuine cost of living problem. Things have to give sometimes. (n/m) (NCFC) - shoddy, May 5, 20:26:44
- Would probably be worse with a bigger ground...... (NCFC) - usacanary, May 5, 20:22:04
  - Yes (NCFC) - Chair_of_the_Bored, May 5, 21:24:12
    - The only reason a club would consider ground expansion is..... (NCFC) - usacanary, May 5, 21:30:58
      - A few notes here (NCFC) - Legacy Fan, May 5, 23:16:26
        
        Agreed (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, May 5, 23:28:56
        
        Not to mention that... (NCFC) - Legacy Fan, May 5, 23:20:08
      - Sorry (NCFC) - Chair_of_the_Bored, May 5, 21:48:38
        
        "Aging" fan base is also the loyal fan base (as much as some moan). More importantly, the (NCFC) - Legacy Fan, May 5, 23:23:53
        
        Average would increase with a bigger standard deviation (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, May 5, 23:23:03
        
        Now this is something I can get on board with. (NCFC) - usacanary, May 5, 23:32:18
        
        Again... WHY would any club increase capacity if...... (NCFC) - usacanary, May 5, 23:21:34
        
        The business case is for the club to work out. However (NCFC) - Legacy Fan, May 5, 23:39:18
        
        Norfolk's population (NCFC) - Henclrikus, May 5, 22:08:38
        
        Who cares about watching our reserves in the FA Cup these days? (NCFC) - Legacy Fan, May 5, 23:22:22
        
        So the club should run the risk of fiscal ruin (NCFC) - Henclrikus, May 6, 00:35:24
        
        I agree on cost, but it would be good if more casual tickets were available (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, May 5, 23:21:00
        
        Counter point.... (NCFC) - usacanary, May 5, 23:28:39

      - How do you know what they’ll be looking for? (NCFC) - littletinyphil, May 5, 23:37:17
      - The honest truth is....... (NCFC) - usacanary, May 5, 23:36:41
        
        But the fan engagement it creates generates shirt sales etc, and that does matter (n/m) (NCFC) - Legacy Fan, May 5, 23:42:02
