I don't might the slightly less ambitious 8k capacity for the new Dalymount. The 6k on the initial plans was definitely a little light but think 8k is a decent size for them in the medium term.
The way things have gone in the past couple years it's reasonable to forecast rovers, bohs and maybe more would regularly attract 10k+ but it's still early days on the leagues new path.
I personally don't see it happening but the arse can come out of it just as fast so being on the conservative side is probably the right move over the long term.
If they are selling out the 8k stadium at the same rate they are their current set up over a couple of seasons then they can try and access some form of expansion if/when that time comes.
