Yes, absolutely, but it is not going to happen. I think the key is to be self sustaining not fixated on a particular capacity. Think 10k is about right for clubs like ours and yours, big enough to get in everyone who really cares but create a bit of demand through being full a few times a year. Scarcity or perceived scarcity of tickets can help sales, nobody has ever worried about not getting in to a Giants game at the JSS.
10k in the JS means staring at 15,000 empty seats
10k in a 12k stadium would lift the roof off the place
The atmosphere at the JS is very strongly linked to attendance size. If you fill it, the air crackles with excitement.
With 25,000 on, it is an incredible stadium - I’ve not been to one better. With 6,000 on its like sitting on a shaded park bench with lots of space to spread out.
