Attendances

I'm really looking forward to today and being part of the biggest crowd ever at the Etihad / CMS.

It will also be the highest attendance I've been in for a City match, apart from Wembley, of course.

MCFC: making history and I can't fucking wait.

Thought I would give it a bump! 24 hours until our biggest home crowd for 43 years. A huge day.

I have just done a quick search for the last home match that was above 55k and came up with the 63K vs the Rags Nov 1971. Is that right? If so today will be the biggest home crowd in my lifetime (just!)

The cup tie? So, this will be the biggest league crowd since that 3-3 Derby.

Capacity announcement will bring the 2nd biggest cheer of the day, the 1st being when Eva caneiro rips off her Chelsea top to reveal a City one.

Id be happy if she just ripped off her top.

Surely there were more at the Charlton promotion game in '85?

 

[Wilf Wild 1937]

Sunderland 54k+ 1973

Derby County 55k+ 1972

The Scum 63K+ 1971

Likely to be just below the Sunderland attendance 54,478

Charlton was officially 47k+ but was under stated by about 10k.

Do we lose many seats to segregation? I am wondering what capacity will be for teams that bring just one tier. Chelsea plus 300 seats in the West Stand plus segregation gains of 200? Do we lose any seats due to segregation or is segregation achieved entirely by the wide aisles?
