The executive director of Norwich City FC has told fans that the planned expansion of the City Stand is too expensive at the moment.
Zoe Webber's comments came during a meeting of fans at the Forum in Norwich on Monday.
She confirmed that safe standing at the Carrow Road will be in place for the England women's game on Friday.
She also hinted that players may have to be sold to realise the club's ambitions.
The fans' forum was the first opportunity to question the Canaries' new head coach, Johannes Hoff Thorup.
He shared the platform with Ms Webber and the club's sporting director Ben Knapper.
