[Football] All 92 League clubs in order of capacity

[Icy Gull]

We are 23rd

I think this video is about a year old so there may be some discrepancies (I know how pedantic some NSCers are, so I thought I’d get that in early to save you the bother!)

Few surprises in there for me. Had no idea Coventry City’s old stadium the Ricoh had such a large capacity either

I found it an interesting watch and some fond memories of quite a few grounds too

Anfield being increased to 61,000 in 18 months time.

Everton’s new waterfront stadium will hold 52,000.

Didn’t Darlington mothball their new (1990’s) 25,000 stadium?

The Darlington stadium is now used by Darlington Mowden Park RFC.

Liverpool's record attendance is 61,905 against Wolves (that will stay intact)

Wolves record attendance is 61,315 against Liverpool (both Cup games,but 13 years apart)

In the record attendances stakes we come in at 51st

just behind Doncaster

You could say the same about Palace’s 51482 against Burnley, the last time we got pipped to the Division 2 (Championship) title. Both times really hurt

Meant to quote [MENTION=36229]GREASED WEASEL[/MENTION] and his Doncaster figure

The Hampden and Ibrox record attendances were vast, and acknowledged to be far lower than the true numbers there. Colossal terraces on 3 sides, rammed.

It is astonishing how many of those records are of FA Cup games, whilst these days it is considered by many clubs to be little more than an inconvenience...

That picture is incredible. There’s actually a guy there without a hat.

Should be arrested for ''indecent exposure''

Molyneux the third pic?

No. I think they are all from the same game, and the second pic should be a really, really big clue...

Thanks for posting [MENTION=19]Icy Gull[/MENTION] - Bradford always surprises me in terms of their stadium size.....

Always thought Hawthorns much bigger. Clearly they are the small Albion !

I was at one of those games

Love this one...

First pic April 1983 by any chance?

It felt like that in there that day.

On the way back from the stadium, and it looks like someone's nicked the ball!
