The Hawthorns Ground Guide: 10 Things You Need To Know

4. It Might Get Bigger... Maybe

There's been talk for some time that the club are investigating the possibility of expanding the stadium to a capacity of over 30,000, but progress has been unsurprisingly slow. The plan would be to add an extra tier to the West Stand, but nothing is concrete (or steel) just yet. Quite how that will affect the away fans remains to be seen, but it might mean more of an allocation - closer to the cup game 5000 perhaps? At one stage, the Hawthorns recorded a highest attendance of 64,815 for a game against Arsenal, so there's clearly enough of a fan base to warrant expansion.
