Expand if possible the Main stand Then a new ground is a future priority (IMO) In time I hate the word Stadium so American I do prefer Football Ground. OK Hear me out come 2035 - 2050 Where would I plan to put a new ground let me put my body armour on and helmet!! CAISTOR TOP Area past the little Chef ..Why global warming the sealevel rising etc. I saw on a website sealevels rise and we loose so many football clubs. There you go AND IF we did something to the Main Stand then i would pay to have wood to make a fireplace surround from the heart and soul of BP!! Here endth the lesson IMO UTM See ya tomorrow.

Its a pity that the design of the Findus is (relatively) dated already. If that was able to extend across a little further and be more of a modern two-decker affair, I'd imagine a lot more seating could be installed. The other problem, of course, is that we even if we could work out a plan to extend some of the stands, it would mean even lower capacity during the construction period. It's not as though we could be like Spurs and play at a suitably sized stadium nearby whilst rebuilding was taking place.

At another time in the future, I'll think about increasing the capacity at BP. But for now, all I can think of are the quarter finals and dream of a semi final place. You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

We need to get one built in the next 3 months! Get the Chinese on that one. If they can knock up a hospital in days Im sure a football ground would be a 'little job' for them

That could add many thousand seats.

If we were to build a new stadium somewhere else, what should the capacity be to start with and what should it's potential capacity be? If we were to expand BP as much as we possibly could, what could the capacity be? How much would each of those options cost the club, taking away any grants/other means of funding?
