With the actual capacity now being 55,097 we could beat the Derby crowd in the near future depending on selling out corporate etc

Great atmosphere yesterday. Signs were good when Ferris and Danny said "Tier 3 say hello" before kick off the noise was loud.
Would be good to have a Tier 1 v Tier 3 song. One sings "David Silva" and other sings "Yaya Toure" to the Kolo Yaya song.
Can't wait for the derby.

Sunderland FA Cup 5th Round 24th Feburary 1973 - 54,478 - just 167 more

And we were doing nicely in that game until Joe Corrigan screwed up a simple goalkick and passed it straight to a Sunderland player (Horswill?)

This is actually a decent idea.

Have to say well done to the guys in the 1894 Group for all the work they've put in.

The South Stand lower tier looked absolutely superb and the atmosphere was fantastic.

As someone that's been involved with the 1894 Group since the turn of the year it's good to see posts like this. I can't claim much if any credit for the work that was put into getting this organised - that honour goes to some of the other guys (and gals) who put in a huge amount of effort. One guy literally spent hours and hours sifting through all the applications to relocate to the new section, accomodating some of the less straightforward requests from fans as well as allocating everyone's seat, making sure everyone was grouped with their mates, etc, and when all that was done he had to double check everything to make sure it was all correct. He also enlisted extra help from his parents to help with the checking and double checking!

Then we have the other members of the group that help with the organising of the flags, banners, and displays. All these efforts were rewarded on Sunday with an atmosphere in 114 and 115 that was totally bouncing, aided by a fantastic supporting cast in the new third tier. Some people may be surprised to hear that while it was as good as it was, we want to up our game further and have it even better in the future. Sunday was a great start though.

Anyone know when the seats will be going in / going back in around the Service Tunnel? I reckon there's a least 200-300 more to go on the capacity with those seats and with the completion of the remaining front row seats in the CB stand in that area? When can we beat the Sunderland 1973 attendance?

We had at least 50k at the 5-1 v Charlton for the last 20 minutes when the stewards opened the gates..aye up City fuck off Pompy May 1985.

Will be done within 1 month.

Cheers mate. Theoretically West Ham then although since we are dependent upon the away section selling out probably Liverpool in November.
