Molineux Stadium – design description
According to the 2010 concept by AFL Architects, the stadium was to be expanded in three stages, stand after stand. There was also an option to extend the fourth, main stand. The first phase (expansion of the sections behind the north gate, the so-called Stan Cullis Stand) was carried out in 2011-2012, after which further work was put on hold, postponing the plans.
In May 2019, an updated concept for Molineux Stadium expansion was presented. The plan is to expand the three remaining stands, which are expected to grow even larger than they were in the original design. The capacity of the entire stadium is to increase to 50,000 spectators.

Though not with the kind of performance they were hoping for. Poor result on the pitch was a bit of a spoil for the shiny stand in black and yellow that replaced former Stan Cullis Stand.
