Jed will know someone who could glaze any new executive boxes on the cheap. I can't see anything happening too soon until the board structure is sorted in the medium/long term. It would make sense to dust off the plans that Wray and Watkins had over the last couple of years rather than spending a fortune on stadium consultants again. The Whittle group proposals were basically £1000 a seat for a basic stand, £1500 to add some matchday hospitality facilities and £2000 a seat to add offices/hotel etc that provide additional revenue.

Still we could be Bristol City and spent £10-£12M on a new ground and not be anywhere nearer getting into it and back in League One with an £18m wage bill to cut. Fortunately, Stephen Lansdown shows no signs of pulling the plug and sold enough Hargreaves Lansdown shares last week to more than cover his losses.

If the exec boxes did take a few seats out, would it drop the capacity enough to stick the away fans solely on the bank? Could then open up the rest of the arkells to home fans and bingo, you've lost little, if any, home seating. I know there's a percentage of capacity that must be allowed for away fans, but dont know exactly how much it is!

This might sound selfish, but I hope it doesn't happen in the DRS, I don't want to move seat after 10 years or so, it will feel odd and I doubt I could get a better seat that is not taken anywhere else.

It's probably a good idea, but ill be pissed off changing seat.
