Brentford left griffin park in 2020 for the community stadium. GP from 1904.

Luton are in the PL this season with less than 11,000.

@@DS9TREK Ah right! Well Rotherham's capacity crowd is 12,000 so you never you know. Going down into tier 3 this year is going to help.

I think it's more to do with press/TV facilities than actual capacity ; Luton had to do some building work to get that criteria met. I like looking at old stats/attendances ;many of the clubs were getting way over their current maximums for certain games ! I think Rotherham -albeit at their old ground Millmoor-somehow got 19,000+ squeezed in v Sheffield Wednesday for a third tier game in the 70's (bet that was fruity!) Grounds were definitely a serious safety risk back then.

It's right though. Existed as an athletics track. Chelsea was created for the stadium, not vice versa (after Fulham turned down the offer to play there!). So pretty unique.

That's true of a lot of teams/stadiums. Anfield is older than Liverpool, the Racecourse is older than Wrexham.

😄

It's a run down shit ole

❤ b c f c new 62.000 up the blues 💙 👌 😎

It's remains the largest stadium in Sheffield, hosting the two biggest attendances in the city this season, as opposed to the Owls' former home of Bramall Lane.

It's pretty bad.

And in the streets of Raith!

It’s actually up to 62,500 matchday capacity now and I believe permission is being granted for 66,000 for next season which will be as much as it can be without redeveloping it further

West Ham hosted 64,472 playing Manu at home in December.

Impressive

I was trying to remember when the capacity was reduced - I wondered if that happened after he posted the video (June 2022)??? Not sure though

You're so rude to the uploader

Where is Keeping Lane, please?

except the stadium has almost bankrupt them and is always empty, they struggle to get 10k watching.

@@tank9432 yes

Normally more away fans than home in that place lol

@@mattjones1207 🤣

⁠@@tank9432nobody goes to dons games complete waste of money for such a huge stadium

And on the other hand, Old Trafford is just ugly as hell 😅

@@gst013There’s always a virgin crying in the comments about his masters manchester united

Well it has to happen for smaller clubs, they don’t have enough funds most of the time so they have to, and even most big clubs can’t afford to stabilise themselves after building a new ground, that why

What's in a name,arose by any other name would smell as sweet WS

Nobody uses those names though. Rochdale play at Spotland, Peterborough at London Road, Lincoln at Sincil Bank.

Used to hold 55000 before it was expanded and its capacity reduced to 32000

It's a seat count Hillsborough still has the seats but segregation and safety issues reduced it to around 35,000

Only get about 5000 anyway, it’s so empty when you go

I dont think many people in MK are that fussed about football. They have bland soulless lives and when not at work in some dull office job, they spend their time at the retail parks or Tesco. I worked there every week for months, awful place.

@@oddities-whatnotI went to Milton Keynes for a day for an Red Bull F1 event, and I can’t comprehend why people would live there. It’s like living in a soulless business park

The red bull place is on an industrial estate you half wit

Should be remembered that they used to be Wimbledon FC and had quite a good following back in the 90s before they were completely rebranded as if they were an American sports team. Makes sense that they could afford to build such a big stadium and probably expected more fans to come.

Newcastle in red and white then

Have to with not getting the revenue from a bigger stadium

They need every penny they can get. It's the big clubs that sicken me, with a sponsor for everything from the stadium down to the stuff they clean the bogs with. Sheer greed.

They're both outside the top 60 here. There are quite a few clubs who have never played in the top flight above them such as Gillingham, Port Vale and Peterborough.

Both make a lot of sense when you consider the clubs' recent history. Both came up from non-league football in a period of less than 10 years and still don't have big-money owners willing to spend loads to build a new state of the art stadium. It's actually fantastic that that sort of thing is possible and it shows how easily fortunes can change in the football world (especially England with its massive football association).

@@kjn3350 I agree. It’s nice to see smaller but really well run clubs doing well.

the video was filmed last year. so some teams are in hte wrong league.

@@kjn3350AFC Bournemouth were always a football league side since the 1920’s so no idea why you think we were a non league side. We spent the majority of our history in the 3rd division but we spent a few seasons in the 1980’s and 1990’s as a 2nd tier side.

Last season and this it's 62500. We haven't got permission for the next capacity rise yet
