I asked at the last home game at the ticket office has the south stand been sold out, they said all seats were sold, I asked again are you sure and they replied that there were no seats available, again the second home in a row there were at least a 100 seats available. I like my space...

I think you are correct.
The problem when the South Stand was longer and the Guinness stand was in place was they reduced the capacity elsewhere to make up for it. Given it will be a while before we leave the Mem ( if we ever do ) it might make sense to extend the seating and get the capacity increased.Temporary stand can't cost that much can it ?

I didn't realise that the capacity was reduced elsewhere to accommodate the additional seats. It doesn't seem to make sense other than consideration of overall access and egress. Up front of the appeal decision, it is clear that nothing is going to be spent on the Mem. It won't happen, but if the boys keep performing as they are on the pitch, it might be worth considering a temporary increase to capacity until the end of the season.

I read somewhere it was something to do with their insurance, something about the registration of our capacity or planning for land use or something and that's why it's not easy to just expand the ground.
