I note the mention of 13,000. I hope this indicates that we've decided on that and we're not going to continue to chase the extra funding to make it 15,000.

Agreed, I just want the thing built, we can expand it later...

Wasn't there talk of us being allocated some land which we can do nothing with other than to secure the loans on the stadium - possibly the old Cas baths site?
