Juve, the stadium is no longer enough
The Scudetto close and European fever
Fans go crazy for the Champions League match against Bayern: Tickets sold out during the pre-sale, that had never happened
Over 100,000 requests, but many will be left outside


Shit happens when you build a stadium big as match box.

Damn, I knew we should've built a colosseo replica because all our matches have sold out.

Maybe not all of our matches but this one is surely. Keep make me laugh while trying to justify this abomination of decision from board.
So we should've spent extra millions and millions of €€€ to build a bigger stadium with all the larger associated costs of maintanence, cleaning, security and staffing for the few matches every season where we might be able to get an extra few hundred thousand €€€???

Makes sense.

It's ok to denying at least 15 thousands of people then.

Extra few millions more likely. Revenue would easily triple the expenditure.

Turk you really fail to understand the basic concept of supply and demand.

If anything, having a smaller stadium with a much more "limited" number of seats, makes the tickets for the big games seem like a must have item and creates a buzz and generates interest in going to the stadium.

When we CONSISTENTLY get 40,000 people to our home games and the demand for season tickets etc grows, then we can think about expanding the stadium.

I've read somewhere that an architect of the stadium said it will be very difficult to expand. It would cost too much. The roof would have to be removed completely. Around 5cm are preventing us to build third tier in current conditions as the standard for legroom is 80cm while we have space for 75cm.
I've also read few years back that original idea from Giraudo was to build 32k stadium and that Blanc was the one who later suggested it to be 41k. Only good thing Blanc has ever done for us.

Turk, I think that you have to take a few things into consideration when the plans were drawn up for the current blueprint for the stadium.

#1) THe average attendance, even pre-calciopoli was nowhere near 41000.00 per match. In fact in the last 7 years of the Delle Alpi, the attendance dropped every single year, and the attendance figures for the last two seasons, considering the quality of those two squads, were alarmingly bad. A very rapid drop just in the last 4 years of the delle alpi alone by nearly 50%. You can blame that on the stadium itself, or the fact that more people get to watch the matches on TV, but even before all of these cable/satellite providers, Juve were averaging around 47000 per match prior to 2000, so the stadium itself probably wasn't keeping as many people away as one may think.

#2) The costs of the stadium at the time versus the revenue lost at the time of calciopoli probably precluded Juve from building a bigger stadium even if they wanted to.


But again though, I harp on the first point. It's like buidling a 20 room mansion, when you are at most, going to use 10 rooms. There would be no point, and history had shown in attendance that there was really no justification at the time to build a stadium bigger than that. If the stadium can be expanded, great.

$#@! happens when you build a stadium big as match box.
It doesnt make sense from an economic point of view Turk to build a 60K just to fill it up 5-6 games a season. It's not just about the initial cost but rather the maintenance and every other regular costs.

I'm pretty sure the management had done quiet a deep Feasibility study for the stadium.

Personally before we even planned to build a new stadium I thought around 35-45 capacity would be just perfect for us, I wasn't surprised when they announced a 41k stadium at all.

So every other club got that wrong but ours by building tiniest of all. Fact is we are denying 5-10,000 people for each game. This stadium is big as their vision. This ain't no trolling and i have every right to be not satisfied with the stadium smaller than provincial clubs' like Bari and Fortuna Düsseldorf.
