    Stadium capacity

    Was looking on World Stadiums today & I thought of something. How come, for it's size, our stadiums capacity is only 20'250? Ashton Gate looks much smaller than Easter Road & they still have a higher capacity than us. Same with Portman Road & Turf Moor.

    I look at Easter Road & I think "Surely it's should be more than 20'250?"

    Some other stadiums and their capacity.

    Perhaps the day we fill in the corners we'll verge on 30,000.

    Let's see how often we can get close to 20,000 first! I think that's going to be more than ample for now.

    I've always wondered this to. Tighter legroom? Steeper stands?

    I'd say so. I think the space each individual spectator has at ER is more than at some of the grounds in question.

    And the North and South Stands each have one corner cut off...

    If you look at the first few rows then you can see there is a good bit of room.

    Enough to stand
