    Maybe there is a secret room at the top of the stairway to nowhere that holds 149!

    Oft.... there you go. For those looking in all that money spent on the single tiered mega stand for a capacity around 400 less than us with no scope to expand. O and one stand that is already rusting, not even UEFA Compliant and cost more than our whole stadium (or there abouts)

    When you add in the seats that would have been taken out if they had finished the job it takes the capacity over 20k.

    By saving seats that would have been lost they have increase the capacity.

    There we have it, maybe I’m being petty but on no account should they be allowed to ever state they have a 20k capacity stadium.

    If you add in the deck chairs that the beautiful people sit in and the bar stools in the sky bar and the old piss stained seats in the Robertson lounge you'd maybe break 20k. Do they count?

    Nearly double the original budget, still unfinished, and missed their primary objective of a 20,000 + stadium.

    The Duncans like to be known as The Famous but a more apt description would be The Failures.

    It a probably even less than that as they took out seats for the TV studio at the back of the stand.

    Don’t forget the seats in the Fritzl bunker behind one of the goals as well.

    They've made a right Christophe of that.

    I honestly think the 20k capacity was calculated on the original design of the new stand, before somebody reminded them that they needed to remove some of the seats for the dugouts, press area, directors' box and TV area.

    ...oh and the seats behind the roof pillars with no view of the pitch.

    She confirmed to them earlier this year it was 20k. Imagine how they'd react if they'd been told it was under 20k so nothing wrong with a wee white lie when it's to stop the fans losing their sh¡t.

    Has someone updated Wikipedia now there's an official figure with a source that can be cited?

    Their wiki page makes reference a couple of times to a capacity of 20,099, with some reference to an article from 2017.

    I don’t know how wiki works but surely this can be edited to the correct figure with a link reference to the safety certificate?

    Anyone got an account they can use to edit? 😀

    I see someone has edited it to 19,852

    That Wiki figure is guarded more closely than The Black Gate at Mordor. There's 500,000 Orcs defending it. It'll be changed back soon I imagine.

    they maybe have some type of secret trapdoor thing that opens like the one behind the away end goals, it's very futuristic 22nd century architecture
