I went to watch Stevenage destroy Wimbledon at the new Plough Lane a couple of months ago. Awesome little stadium that would be a good model IMO. Capacity just under 10K, very user friendly and well-integrated with retail and high-density housing.
Nice stadium but i just dont see the point of building one if thats the capacity for me defiantly needs to be 15k at the smallest
According to the initial latest rumour, it would be a venue for most A League games, except playoffs and AFC Derbies which would be at the ROF.
So 10K capacity is all that's needed. I imagine it's going to be difficult to finance this mooted project as it is. The smaller it is the cheaper it is, and 10,000 is enough for 90-95% of matches played by Wellington Rugby NPC and the Nix.
We'll outgrow 10k with a purpose-built rectangular stadium. Once everyone gets a taste of the atmosphere, the crowd will be higher than the average 6k-ish we're currently getting. I'd honestly do 15-20k if I was to dream for a little moment.
