'Watershed' for city stadium deal

The new stadium is planned for land near Ninian Park
Asda has been unveiled as the cornerstone outlet for the retail development behind Cardiff City FC's proposed 30,000-seat stadium.
The supermarket chain will move into a 55,000 sq ft store at the planned complex at Leckwith.

Developers called it a "watershed" for the £200m project.

Club owner Sam Hammam called it "fantastic news" after a "difficult and uncertain period" for fans, and it was hoped work could start later in 2006.

Why would it ever be needed to be expandable to 60,000?
