If they do the 20% capacity that they're doing for the CWC then we're looking at 6.5k or something like that.

Not 25k, but still more than they're getting in Australia.

But considering the extra accommodation costs (say 3-4 nights for 25 people) plus return flights and I'm sure other costs - sadly may just not be worth it for only 6,500 folks. Especially considering will be an already tight schedule of many mid week games in April, plus plenty of interstate flights.

Increased 50% capacity, so over 15,000 and yes that would definitely help Nix's bottom line a small amount. But don't even think those two 20,000 plus home crowds last season, made much of a dent in large financial loss for that season.

I guess it's the more intangible stuff of having a true home game, connecting with the fans for a few days etc etc - that may make Welnix try persuade other clubs the exercise would be worthwhile.
