Agreed. It would be great if we could fill it as it is first though!

Makes you wonder what the powers that be have planned for us and the surrounding area if they are expectiong to expand it and fill it, Are they really planning on making tickets more affordable too?

Strange, I've never seen all those people sat next to me! Just shows what happens when you get so engrossed; will wonders never cease?

here's a question to ponder is the san siro to big for AC and inter
Capacity 80,000 inters average is 48,000 AC 41,000
Its only full for their derby and nearly full for the CL semi's
No one seems to talk about a half empty stadium.
we can get 60k if it is priced right and marketed right for 6-8 games
50k plus for all other league games

I think 3 tier its meant to be around 60,000. It'd be pretty much the same size as Emirates.

But you're just guessing whereas I am basing mine on proper sums.

The 2nd tier of the South Stand holds 3600 so if you add 2 more of these on the the ends of the ground you increase the capacity by 7200. The current capacity is 47540 so the new look ground would hold 54740.

Alternatively, the entire 2nd tier holds 15923 so if the 3rd tier held the same the capacity would be 52857 (the bottom tier holds 21011)

Which ever way you look at it, we're not going to get to 60k.



P.S. Having been to The Emirates a few times I can't see how it can realistically be compared in size to our ground.

But the higher you go the bigger the radius, which would mean more seats per row.

The higher up you go, the steeper the camber would need to be, therefore room for fewer rows.
