This isn't going to happen over night unfortunately. In the short-term I think the idea of some temporary stands at the Milton end corners make sense so we can at least house 20K.
I can't see anything beyond that this season though. There will then be a major decision to be made if we manage promotion. We will need to increase to at least 25K for the Championship. But this will cost money & there will need to be a lot spent on transfer fees & wages. My feeling rightly or wrongly is that this will be too rich for the owners to shell out & they'll look to sell at a tidy profit.
To try to ensure a good chance of promotion the owners will need to back the manager in the January transfer window which previously they've failed to do to any real extent. A good F.A. Cup run would also help to generate a good war chest for transfers. But the owners will need to top that up so the EWK policy may have to be sidelined.
