Don't underestimate how many people have been struggling with their finances in the last twelve months due to the pandemic.
1962 tickets are left for Leicester. So not thousands as the troll suggested.Let's hope that when Fred gets the chance to buy a season ticket he doesn't end up sitting near you.
I've just watched the Purslow interview. I'm not sure if it was him or the interviewer who suggested an increase from 42,000 to 50,000, but I'm wondering if they will upgrade or (more sensibly) demolish the North Stand only, or whether they will try to do something with the Doug Ellis Stand as well. I had a season ticket in the DE Upper when it was first built and the views were excellent but I remember the concourse up there always being overcrowded. Mention was made of an upgrade to the hospitality facilities, and for sure the minimum standard must have gone up since the DE was built. If the club want to improve the supporter experience for more of our support, and lets face it, if people have to endure rather than enjoy the experience we're less likely to retain them as season ticket holders, then I would expect work/improvement/rebuilding to be done on the North Stand and Doug Ellis Stand.

I wonder how limited they are too develop the witton lane

I wonder how limited they are too develop the witton lane I remember when the Witton Lane was expanded from one tier to two, there were issues with the natives claiming they'd never see daylight in their homes because of the stand. I suppose time will tell to see if these issues resurface.
