Stadium Capacities

[ManxSeagull]

I have just been reading on a site about Liverpool's new Anfield Stadium. I didn't realise that a stadium's official capacity included Press Boxes, Managers Dug Out's etc. I assumed it was purley spectators. So out of our 22,000 seats at Falmer, how many are lost to Press Areas, Directors Boxes, Dug Outs etc.

North Stand Lower terrace 5594
Lower executive terrace 2394
Executive box level 360
Upper terrace 6932
Upper executive terrace 1030
Directors 209
Press 167
Managers dug outs 32
South stand Lower terrace 7338

Upper executive terrace 1050

Same as everywhere. All spectators have to be accommodated somewhere. Press tickets, directors tickets etc are all included at Withdean and will be at Falmer. The dug out inclusion is because Liverpool's design includes Arsenal style dug outs that are within the stand.
