Just goes to show what a little success in a good venue produces, I also think COVID made people realise how much they miss the ritual of attending. Looking at some of our crowds in the last season and the pricing for this upcoming one, I genuinely think if we can get on a good run there will be posts on here about how to increase the capacity.

Open End Numb Legs Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 Not having had the pleasure of a trip to the Mem, I have a basic question. Was the tent not for away fans? If so is that end changing to home fans or a mix of the 2? If so then surely it will need a separation space between them which loses seats. They can't have home and away sharing the luxury concourse either. I must have missed something? Or maybe just the away fans are moving elsewhere.

Pretty sure they, or at least their project managers, know what they're doing. Imagine the outrage with the NIMBYS and the 'anti-Rovers' councillors when the stand can't be opened in August. How dare they?! Mayor Marvin the blue will see it through the 'due process' for them, no doubt, whether or not it is in the interests of his citizens.
