I can’t see it unless the Purlow stand fits better with the new financial rules.  Haven’t read them, but thought wages must be linked to turnover so cannot see how losing X,000 seats for a season would help that metric.

In theory losing x amount of fans is covered for financially as you are allowed (or used to be allowed) to include an average of the turnover of the developed area for the financials. However I think from a footballing perspective Emery likes having the fans all around the ground for home games.

I've yet to see a rule that definitively covers that, and even if it does exist for the PL with how strict UEFA are I can't see them doing it. Might be why hardly anyone here does a complete stand rebuild these days unless it's the only option like Fulham.

Are we allowed to use FIFA prices when computing the average?

That'd be good. We'd definitely have more revenue than those over at the Twelve Dildo stadium.

Misshapes?

We'd like to go to town but we can't risk it.

I’ll acknowledge this one even if no one else will.
