Ground Capacity /New Ground

[dave58]

Would be great if there was someway of developing L/Rd i.e another tier on top of school end/ellerslie Rd and maybe SA Rd adding 10.000 to our capacity. as i think our ground has played a big part in our survival. I dont want to sit in a ground where you are too far away from the pitch and no atmosphere, also we do not need anything bigger than 30.000 as our gates at the moment prove. prob about 28.000 is enough with 25000 to Rs fans and 3000 away fans max.

As much as most of us love LR, it's outdated and too small to sustain EPL football. If we're going to have a viable EPL club we simply need a stadium that is fit for the 21st century.

Next season, the EPL will feature 8 clubs that have built new stadiums in recent years. We have the smallest stadium in the division, and if we want to sign top players, we have to have a top notch stadium for them to play in.

For me, this is a revolution for our club. An ambitious board, a new training facility and academy, international players, and really, we have to have a new stadium to complete the package.

If you are able to see it, you only have to look at the tunnel cam from the city game compared to the ones they do at LR, makes ours look tiny.
And that's not even before we mention the stadium etc.

BTW I think tourists is exactly what we need. We need more capacity, more people through the turnstile, more revenue. New fans have to start sometime.

I reckon there are at least 8000 other life long R's fans that want tickets, but can't get them due to sell outs and all that. If we get a bigger stadium it'll be sold out by QPR fans - not tourists or glory hunters; they can f*ck off to Chelsea or Fulham.
