Might do if Allardyce or Pulis get a job at a Premier League side.
They wouldn't use passenger lifts for that. It would gub their warranty. They are one of the last things to get commissioned pre opening.

It wast just a guess, I don’t know how many away fans can attend at the current capacity, but I assume away capacity is done on a percentage of total capacity. I’m not well read on this subject, glad to be corrected. Just to clarify, when City host Bournemouth, I certainly wouldn’t be in the away section ;-)
They will also have goods lifts for beds etc and service lifts for foods. When I worked on lifts it was a difficult job trying to stop people using them as they were handed over long before the building was complete.
Yea hence my use of the word passenger.
The hotel has two service lifts. Don't think the office has any dedicated ones though. Usually the lift manufacturer will hold off testing and commissioning them till the very end, from what I have encountered.

Away section is 3k and for cups it’s roughly 7k but depends on if they’ve taken both the third tier and second tier of the south stand - it’ll be about 5k-ish if just the third tier.
Ps
Bournemouth don’t usually bring the full 3K.
Google.
Premier League rules state that visiting fans are allowed a minimum of 3000 tickets (or 10% of capacity if less than 30,000), but often reductions due to segregation come out of the away team's allocation.
PL news.
Clubs have unanimously agreed to extend the current £30 cap on away ticket prices.
Premier League clubs today unanimously agreed to extend the current £30 cap on away ticket prices.
This will be the 10th season the £30 cap has been in place. Since its introduction in 2016, attendance at away games has increased from 82 per cent to 91 per cent.
The Premier League and clubs recognise the additional costs associated with fans following their team during the season, and the incredible atmospheres they create at matches.
A Fan Engagement Standard was launched in 2023 to reinforce Premier League clubs' commitment to ensuring long-term meaningful engagement with supporters.
The cumulative away attendance for the 380 matches during the 2024/25 Premier League season was 953,420.

Away fans is 5% of capacity, upto around a maximum of 3000 ish.
FA Cup is upto 15% of capacity if possible and safe.
League Cup similarly.

Nothing to do with my post.
However, I am aware of away allocations and it is actually 10% of home capacity to a maximum of 3k. Police advice permitting.
10% or 3000. Whatever is lower. So forest at 30k give 3k away united at 73ish give 3k. Bournemouth at 12k only need to give 1200ish

I think it's a minimum of 3000 or 10% of the capacity if the stadium holds less than 30000.
I've edited part of my post. But not all of it.
