Don’t forget you need to have extremely short legs to sit with any form of comfort. Their terracing is far too narrow for seated fans, I know as I experienced it at the Olympics. The lower tier concourse in the Stretford End is akin to the Black Hole of Calcutta. The stadium is a dump.

I went there for the Olympics too and was shocked at what a dump the whole place was.
I always assumed that the away section was grim on purpose but the Stretford End was just as bad, I'm only 5'9" and could barely fit my legs in the seat. We were all pretty much sat on top of each other as the seats can barely accommodate a toddler. Bare peeling concrete and dust everywhere too, was like a communist era gulag. Embarrassingly the opening game of the women's Euros is being held there this year so that's another chance for them to give Manchester a bad name across Europe.
Probably explains why that fat bustard Howson watches the games on YouTube instead of at the stadium though, his bulk is never fitting into one of those 'seats'.

I don’t think they’ve hit rock bottom yet, far from it in fact lol

Absolutely, getting to the knock out stages of the champions league is progress for them, they are normally off to play a tense away side against some Eastern Europeans in the Thursday night cup by now.
 
What gets me is they'd really convinced themselves that barely dragging themselves out of the easiest group in the competition, because Ronaldo had scored a couple of last minute winners, meant they had a chance. Or that "winning the transfer window" gave them a chance of beating these Liverpool and City sides, arguably the two best teams the league has seen with the two best managers in world football, because they'd signed Sancho and Ronaldo. Even more delusional than the scouers in the 90s.
