personally i would prefer us to stay at UP and just do up the east stand!

atmosphere remains and we get a bigger capacity. i think its better to have a slightly smaller stadium because the demand for tickets remains. if you know you can go when you feel like you get a bit slack and dont try to go as much

Do you mean building one or just moving into an unused one?

In my opinion the move to the olympic stadium could be a good one. We have already proved that we have one of the most loyal (or is it disturbed) fan base. When we were struggling in the championship, we filled UP, the past season and a half UP has been near enough full. I'm not saying that 60,000 will go each match.

My only worry is, as has happened with the redevelopment of UP, the atmosphere has gone somewhat. It's not as intimidating now. The whole reason why away teams hated UP was because the Chicken Run could actually get hold of them as they were going past. Now you need a telescope to see the players (still nowehere near as bad as the Toons away section)
