If it's a 5 year plan then perhaps start with a target? Increase the average gate from 1,400 to 2,000? Season tickets from 700 to 1,200?
Fight on three fronts: kids as Baldy (I think) mentioned. Get them to the front of the Clayton End.
Hand out free vouchers to season ticket holders to entice friends to come along.
Get the word out generally around the area about the history and wonder of the Wham and carry on with ground improvements.
Each of those only needs to make a 2.5% increase year on year and the target is hit.

Obviously my pyramid selling scheme would treble the gates, but maybe that's to be brought in in year 6 when the new stand is in place, and I've had chance to refine it a little.
