Some may view some smaller issues as a negative thing, off the top of my head such things as added fans "jumping on the bandwagon" which may result in long time fans not being able to get tickets for certain games. Things like this will obviosuly be an annoyance to those affected, but its a small price to pay for the incresed multi million pound revenue coming into the club through its Asian fanbase.
I dont think us menial fans can really imagine the amount of money there is to be made in this Asian market; Im hearing weve already sold out 70k seater stadiums on our Asian tour for starters, plus the money generated through shirt sales alone in South Korea should we sign park would be mega. All of this allows us to make the big signings us fans want. We cant expect to stay as a nice small family club and have the big money signings Im afraid; we need to branch out and expand to make big things happen which, as mentioned, IMO, will have a few small downfalls, but in the grand scheme of things its no way a bad thing at all, its great great news for us as a club, we are going places.
You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.

I don't think that will be a problem with 45k seater.
Well we have certainly moved on since the days of going to midweek games at Grimsby and Yeovil in a mini bus because we could not get enough fans to make a coach viable :=):

True if this is the case. I was thinking more in the next couple of years, if theres an overlappping period betwen us having aload of newbie fans and us moving into a new ground.

Yep, could be an issue but it's a small problem among many fantastic things - so it's something we have to accept I guess.
as long as the stands are sttep and close and the ones who start the singing are kept together atmo will be good.
aside from that football is about getting as good and big as you can. others will do their best to push us back
so we dont have to.
RRRRRRRRRRRR,s

at 45k we'd be behind arsenal, tottenham, chelsea, west ham and only in front of fulham when most of said clubs rebuild. Btw is this the first time there has been 6 london clubs in the prem?
