Re: New Stand
May be a cheaper option would be to build on what we have and remain faithful to our roots and established style i.e. it may be possible to extend the Whinney Hill Stand backwards and upwards and seat it throughout with the required number of seats. The roof would need raising a bit.
Did they not do similar with the Kemlyn Road Stand at Anfield and the stands at Old Trafford or did they rebuild the whole stand from scratch?

While we're on the subject, the Kemlyn Road stand, at first they just built the boxes and second tier behind the existing stand. It opened in 1992. The lower tier seating was revamped in 1995 because it still had pre-taylor recommended seat treads.
At Old trafford they completly demolished the 1960's north stand and built the current 26000 structure, with the east stand, thery did the same as they did at Anfield built the extra tier and roof behind and re-profiled the seating in the close season, the West stand they just built the tier behind because it was originally built in 1994.

Re: New Stand
Well the seating at is FES is apparently 1200, so we only need another 800. I noticed the new roof on the Clayton End has was is known as a 'goalpost' structure with looks as though it can be lifted and the terrace extended over the concourse so that could make up the extra capacity to make it over 6000. Or even extend the Coppice Terrace towards the Whinney Hill Stand??

Did you mean the 'whole' ground, or are you refering to the FES as a hole?
