Surely, given the size of the site, the main constraint on the capacity of the stadium is that pitch in its centre. Or maybe just the pitch with free VR headsets for season ticket holders.

No specific questions more advice to the members of the SCG who tend not to ask the obvious questions it seems to me
Keep an open mind, do not be taken in by glitzy ideas and promises and to everything said the three most useful words are
How?
When ?
Why?
Choose as appropriate, but be persistent in getting proper and full answers
Where is anyone asking for a 50K stadium Stu?
A 15,000 stadium is two massive steps back for the club from HR. The fanbase is there for a 20-25,000 stadium, especially in the championship.
No one is suggesting a 50,000 seater stadium.
A lot gets sorted over a good pint to be fairGood comment OSB and pints noted, just hope we get an opportunity to pint these over.

Houses or our brew stadium at 40k capacity plus a training/academy set up. Also room for parking. Aston Martin flagged up fir it who pulled out. So how about putting both sides to the test. See who really is bluffing?

30k is what I really want and I think more than reasonable to ask for

A stadium that holds 25K would be fine. We would just need it planned so that if we need more tickets we reduce the size of the away end to the minimum allocation allowed which is 10%
We haven't had a 30k stadium for the last 20years.
twice in last 10 years
While in decline. Impressive isn't it?
Lowest crowd last season just under 10000. This was the only league game with a less than 5 figure crowd. We should plan for potential crowds not those we got under Pressley.Yup, and if to tickets were hard to come by you would be getting 12.5-13.5k week in week out, and not the odd 15-16k mixed in with 8-9k crowds, I mean 8k for a league game in a 32k stadium is fecking rediculous....

VERY.
Sadly, dosen't warrant building stadium for though.
A one-off possibly but a large away support on top of a reasonable start in the championship campaign
Don't know if anyone has asked the council from CCFC but I do know the flags were arranges by ACL not Wasps and they are allowed to use them for any Ricoh event. Unfortunately they decided to only promote one of the teams that play there.if anyone from CCFC has asked the council about the flags on the island and when it will be our turn
Depends. If our owners are planning on bringing success to the club it does. Future proof the stadium. It's planning for the future. As is planning a 15K stadium. Tells you everything you want to know about what our owners have planned for our future really. Shame a large section on here aren't willing to fight for something better.
Ridiculous with zero credibility. If the butts plan was 30,000 you'd want 35,000 - there is no way we'd sell 30,000 even in the premiership for 70% of games - in the championship it will be half empty - oh and we ain't got any chance of the premiership anyway.
When have we had any success in the past 20 years. Potential is there if we do well.how many times would we have "sold out" a 30k stadium in the last 20 years ?

IF.
Cant base a business plan on IF. History shows a 20k stadium would be ample for us
We also got 7-8 crowds of less than 10k in our first season in league, including under Robin's, so its not all down to pressley.Lowest crowd last season just under 10000. This was the only league game with a less than 5 figure crowd. We should plan for potential crowds not those we got under Pressley.

Not true. History shows plenty of occasions when we have averaged over 20k. As previous posts have pointed out, a successful season this year gates will again start to push towards the 20 k Mark and will exceed it if form is maintained. First season back in the Championship on the back of a bit of success crowds would average over 20k.
We should plan a stadium based on the assumption we will continue to fail? A very bleak view of the future.
