It’s definitely moved on since then and fans/people are willing to pay up for hospitality packages. As I mentioned elsewhere the prices that they are willing to pay for single games in the PL can be more than most of us are paying for our season tickets, certainly those of us on the Lower North, but I've heard numbers for big games that surpass the cost of STs in the other Valley stands.Airman Brown said:
The club struggled to sell the amount of hospitality it had in the Premier League. Things move on but I wouldn’t just assume there is an unlimited market.letthegoodtimesroll said:
The West Stand does offer more options for further expansion but i doubt we would need to go down that route in any foreseeable future.sam3110 said:It's similar to St. James in that respect, they have 2 massive stands but can't develop the other 2 due to restrictions. Due to the nature of The Valley and the surrounding area you can probably build the JS almost as big as you want, and given the space behind the West Stand, I reckon that could also go bigger if absolutely needed, without the need for anything on the CurbsideWhat the West Stand car park does offer at this moment in time though is the space to build an extension at the back of the West Stand to house additional hospitality suites.
We definitely need to be ready to tap into that if and when we go up but if we maintain and improve on the crowds we've been getting so far in the Championship then we should be selling out the hospitality packages we have so far and already looking to expand capacity for them.
A Spurs mate of mine has got a special birthday coming up and I thought about treating him to some hospitality for a forthcoming Spurs home match. That is until I saw the prices! They are breathtaking and made what I paid for hospitality at Wembley for the last play off game look a bargain!
And for the popular games it all looks pretty much sold out!
It's the future I'm afraid.0 -

North of £500 I imagine.

They won't entertain it.ShootersHillGuru said:Not sure why the football club would entertain even considering this when they don’t own the stadium.0
