OT is going to get work done in the summer this year to expand the area for disabled spectators. Apparently this will decrease the capacity to 72,500. With the others building new stadiums and new stands, boosting the main stand should be in the back of the Glazers' minds. According to Andy Mitten, this would increase capacity to 80k and then with further development, to 88k. If it wasn't for the damn railway tracks and housing behind the main stand, I'd suspect these developments would've already been done and dusted.
I went to OT for the 2006 FA Cup semi final. It was midway through the last upgrade but still found it impressive. Going to be very difficult to expand it over the railway lines
