edinburghowl Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Milleniums capacity is 74,500. Old Trafford is 75,957. It's not a lot of difference but I promise you I wouldn't just make that up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neal M Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 (edited) Cardiff is 74,500. We took just under 60,000 fans there in 2005 to Hartlepool's 15k. OT is just shy of 76,000. Edit - Didn't see E'burgh owl had just posted this. Edited January 21, 2011 by Neal M I move a lot of concrete on the QVC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanharper Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Disappointed it's not at Wembley. We'll just have to go for automatic promotion, and do Wembley for the FA Cup Final instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coopswfc76 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Looks like you answered my question earlier in thread oops. Good idea anyway i think Wembley has been de-valued by all the games being there, Should be cup finals & England games only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scram Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Weird when the official attendance was just under 60k There were definitely thousands of empty seats anyway I think OT is a good venue for the play offs in the absence of Wembley tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OxonOwl Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Crap decision, the chance to get to play at a packed Wembley is one of the most exciting things about the playoffs. I couldn't give a monkey's about the Champions League This Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essix Blue Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 It's not the capacity - it's segregation. IF we get to the final and play Brentford, we'd be able to sell 40k tickets and Brentford about 15k - could OT be segregated to allow that???

IF we get to the final and play Brentford, we'd be able to sell 40k tickets and Brentford about 15k - could OT be segregated to allow that??? Sure it could be. Against liverpool they had the normal away end plus the 2nd tier of the east stand. Give them the lower tier and then we could have the Stretfford end , North Stand and part of South Stand!
