Lille Stadium progress. Should open in 1 year apparently. http://stadiumporn.com/grand-stade-l...-lille-france/
Official Lille site: http://www.grandstade-lillemetropole.com/
There is a large catchment area for QPR to exploit and attract an extra 20,000 to games. 25, 20 or even 15 years ago Chelsea were attracting 15-25,000 gates for games and now fill SB at 42,000.
At thj right prices i.e. Kids or £2-5, young adults & OAPs at £10-15 and family deals, and ST at £400 etc, QPR will be in a position to attract between 30-45,000 depending on league position, opponents & importance of matches. TF can visualise that as can some fans.

Indeed, he has prob calculated that a smaller stadium wd still cost almost as much but would bring in far less revenue. In order to eventually become even half way towards self-financing the club needs to play in front of bigger gates. It is a risk - we have never been a "big" club and even in our glory days couldn't attract those kind of gates. Still, think we should all pay Fernandes and the Mittels the respect of recognising that they understand money a lot better than all of us...

If there is not enough demand for seats in some matches they could switch to the seats at the front to keep the atmosphere going.

just build the ground using 2 or 3 tiers.The upper tier(s)could be overflow area's,where tickets are only sold when the rest of the ground is sold out.Or do what Fulham do,have a large away end.Any tickets not sold out to the away fans can go on general sale.
