Dave T Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 It's 72,400 The Saints v Hull game attracted 72,582 in 2006, and this was not a sellout. I suspect the screen does not take out 4k seats, not sure if any others are blocked out anywhere in the stadium. Either way, if we could get 70k then it will look full on TV, as the empty seats are usually up the top in the dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sat near the back of that for the Wigan v Bradford game a few years back, and I may as well as sat at home and watched it on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Few of ma mates have watched united games from up there n said its not as bad as people say Since that year they have opened up the corners due to the new quadrants, so that may have helped and make you feel more part of the crowd in the stadium. I haven't sat up there since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
