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
I just love Villa park the history and atmosphere especially under the lights, The walk from under the Aston expressway and seeing the holte end come it to view is just inspiring
Kind of mad when you consider that two of the smaller stadiums in this list, Lutons Kenilworth Road and Bournemouths Vitality Stadium are actually Premier League stadiums! Luton have slightly expanded their stadium from 10,356 to 11,500, so it's not actually the smallest in the Prem. Bournemouths is!
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).
@@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.
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
Fantastic video. I put it on quarter speed to have a good look at each stadium. Surprised to see one club with a capacity of about 12,000 in the Premier League. Thought a club had to have a capacity minimum of 25,000 to be in the PM. There's hope for Rotherham then ( my home town), if you can into PM with that amount of capacity.
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.

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
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.
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.
Cor well out of date even at the time of recording, the Olympic shitehole should’ve be number 2 as it was 63000 then but we’re now up to 65000 and will be at 67000 at the start of the season 2024/25 season!
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.
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.
Some of the dates given HAVE to be wrong. For example - Brentford in 2020? I very much doubt it - the club has been going much longer than that. Also, Liverpool's capacity has now been increased to around 68.000 or so. The list needs updating and correcting.
Its very depressing how many of the traditional stadium names have been replaced by soulless corporation names.
And on the other hand, Old Trafford is just ugly as hell 😅

Nobody uses those names though. Rochdale play at Spotland, Peterborough at London Road, Lincoln at Sincil Bank.
amazing video . i am on 77 / 92 . i will complete the 92 this year . cannot wait
The video is only eight minutes long, mate.
did you manage to finally watch the video?
did you complete it mate? :)
Did you do it?
Have you done it yet?
Great video! One thing I noticed is that a lot of those smaller clubs have very attractive stadiums

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

Great vid , thanks.
Barnsley is 23009 dunno where 18515 came from
Nice little video. Id like to see this list sorted from oldest to newest
This is great! But needs updating for this season
MK Dons is punching way above its weight here
except the stadium has almost bankrupt them and is always empty, they struggle to get 10k watching.

Normally more away fans than home in that place lol

West Ham’s stadium is 62,500, technically 68,000 if you include seats that aren’t used
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

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.

Sky blues in the top 20 stadiums
Great to see my club Middlesbrough so high up on the list 😊😊⚽️⚽️ UTB
West Ham is up to 62500 and applied for 66,000.
West Ham hosted 64,472 playing Manu at home in December.
Impressive
Some of these are out of date. Middlesbrough has a safety certificate for 33.7k, without segregation.
And there’ll be dancing in the streets of Select Car Leasing tonight, as Reading have an unexpected win.
And in the streets of Raith!
doncaster stadium impressive
Find this a common mistake on most of these type of videos but St James' Park opened 1880 not 1892. Great video though. 👍

In what century was this done? And why is Hillsborough over 39000
It hasn't held that many for decades
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
The MK Dons Stadium is mental for that club.
Only get about 5000 anyway, it’s so empty when you go

Good video, a shame that a lot of the smaller clubs sell out their stadium name to big business.
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.
That's quite alot of stadiums. There's alot more than that all over the world though
I can’t believe that Sheffield Wednesday is 11 and I support Sheffield Wednesday swfc ❤
Home park?
I notice you quote WHU as 60,000 max howthen last season they average 62450 only behind M. Utd
Barnsley is wrong, it's about 23000 not 18000
Home Park is smaller now
Im looking for Bradford
My team 32 and 2
Cor well out of date even at the time of recording, the Olympic shitehole should’ve be number 2 as it was 63000 then but we’re now up to 65000 and will be at 67000 at the start of the season 2024/25 season!
Last season and this it's 62500. We haven't got permission for the next capacity rise yet
For Chelsea its got a stadium date of 1877. They weren't founded until 1905!
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.
Barnsley is way higher?
Cardiff Trynna Be A Knockoff Of Elland Road 💀
Barnsley 1888 and still same stadium
Very inaccurate, you have Bsrnsley capacity at 18515. Its actually 23287
Liverpool now 3rd biggest
Southampton so big and 18 place get in there
Sheffield Wednesday isn't 39k anymore.
Legally they can't sell an area of seats so it can't hold 39
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.
If Utd hadn't stopped winning Old Trafford would have been completed by now.
😄
There are only 72 clubs in the EFL !!!
Some of the dates given HAVE to be wrong. For example - Brentford in 2020? I very much doubt it - the club has been going much longer than that.
Also, Liverpool's capacity has now been increased to around 68.000 or so.
The list needs updating and correcting.
Brentford left griffin park in 2020 for the community stadium. GP from 1904.
there is no where old trafford is ranked over spurs, their roof is leaking!
Bradford city is about 50,000. At least that’s what the club said
That's wildly inaccurate tbqfhwy.
stop the idiotic squeaking ,rattling and clicking. Only thickness would a din like this in the background.
It's pretty bad.
You have got Hillsborough well wrong its 34000 they have taken all the seats out of the keeping lane corner out.get it right or don't post the vidio
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?
Villa Park is actually 42,788. Not far off though. 👍👍😂
