Cramped and small? I'd say the opposite, feels as though there is a lot of space that could be used.
Which makes me think, could there ever be any expansion? Where the camera is would be a great place for standing (without impeding the camera of course). That whole level seems like an awful lot of good viewing space that could be used, maybe even better hospitality boxes with it's own seats. And/or maybe a WNIR type balcony type thing either end? Definitely has the height available.
Clearly this is a long term thing but hopefully we could push the 3,500 mark in the future.

Agree there seems to be a fair bit of space that could be utilised. That upper mes level could EASILY have two rows of standing. Some of the walkways are huge and could take additions as well.
I guess it does beg the question of did we underestimate how many seats we needed mind. But i guess when the bridgend fake taxi man was in charge we never could have predicted the rapid upward trend our devils fortunes would take.

This is mainly in response to pjj365.
Read about the history of Centrum ice rink. You'll read many similarities. Such as a 10 yr build fraut with issues.
That ice rink, multi purpose, with gym, bar and shop lasted 6 yrs.
So yes in response to your comments there have been ice rinks built, commercial properties invested in to then see them close, stand empty or never open.
Look around Cardiff Bay there are a few.
