My seat in N1E has changed from 341 to 126..... not sure how that translates to bunching seats up in North stand?

Good God! l could believe that it may have gone up a little bit to accomodate a few extra seats, but not by 476!

I don't know what part of the ground your seat is in, but mine in West Lower, (W1G), has kept the same number.

I think all stands have been renumbered starting at 1, rather than starting at 1 in the West Stand.

Seems like Barber confirmed that we’re sticking to the 31,800 capacity for now. Might be an opportunity to expand to 32,500 with the NS shelf and NE box this time next year. I’d have thought the outside big screen and toilets/bars/eateries will have to wait too.

They've taken out a couple of hundred seats in the North for safe standing?

What do we imagine our top attendances will be with a new capacity of 31,800?. Around 31,500?

For the life of me I cannot remember our old capacity and our top attendance/pretendance. Was it 30666 or 30750? :blush:

Highest attendance to date : 30,682 v Liverpool, January 2019. Capacity : 30,750.

I hope I’m right with all that! :drink:

I

Could be as high as 31,700

65 less than capacity could be as high as 31,735

Without Covid restrictions we are on course for a 31k plus new record attendance. Happy days.:clap2:

With the Nepalese Covid Variant, there won’t be crowds at matches next season, so the expansion was unnecessary.

:fishing:

There will be crowds next season but only if you’ve had your jabs and can prove it. Doubt it will be capacity so sensible to shelve it though for a while! :amex:

This is all becoming clear, I can now see why CPFC’s new 40,000 seat main stand hasn’t got off the ground.

Steve Parish was ahead of game on this pandemic.
