Can it be ready for the West Ham game?

A good start but we are 20 odd years behind the rest. If we maintain our Prem position, 45-50k would be the norm. We are behind in every aspect. Go to Spurs and that’s the level. Million light years behind unfortunately

What a short sighted project this will be. Clough stand is 40 years old & not fit for purpose, seats too cramped, toilets archaic & refreshment with horrendous quality and queues. 45 000 should be the minimum capacity not only for home games but any future world/eurocompetitions

Sort some proper parking facilities.

Who's paying for it? Council Tax payers again?

If forest get relegated next season they’ll be building a stadium to have 15,000 empty seats 🤷‍♀️
