Safety should be priority than increasing attendance capacity. We dont need any mishaps. People will stop taking families and kids to the stadium if such cramming exists. We want more of the new generation to go to the stadium and develop a passion for the game. So safety first is the way to go.
No way bucket seats should removed, Safety first. If they distribute the tickets in proper way original fans will get a chance to watch the game. Now what happening is that tickets are distributed in bulk to the wrong hands and it is available only in black. That should be avoided.
@debarghya89, even after removing all the seats 1 lakh is not achievable. So manjapadda wants a stadium newly constructed and owned by management which should accommodate 1 lakh people and it should be strictly football specific. Now the problem is where the money will come from and how can they find such prime location near Ernakulam corporation city limits so that people from all kerala can come and easily watch KBFC play
Stadiums have evolved over decades. What was a routine practice of the past in cramming as many spectators as possible is not permissible now. Please take a look at these two videos.
@indian_gooner ; Soccer specific stadium for 1 lakh capacity does not exist in the world. Nou Camp in Barcelona is a short of 1 lakh. Rungrado May day of Pyong Yang with 114 000 capacity is used for their cultural celebrations.
If capacity is lesser than demand, simply increase the ticket prices. If there were fewer fans who could afford the tickets, they wouldn't be able to complain about needing a bigger stadium.
