Unlikely to be beaten then as the capacity is usually reduced at the corners for segregating your pillocks from our pillocks.

that and the holding back 10% of the unreserved seats thing.

Will still never understand though how we can't have 24,000 for it, when City have that against all Prem opponents! Like I said on your forum mate, I reckon it's City wanting to keep the club attendence record for themselves!

Dunno, only reason I can think of is that more of the seats are reserved for the football, and I'm only basing that on the fact that I noticed the sign above block 21 which used to be the reserved/unreserved split was painted over last time I was there.

Ah right, maybe so. Just meant that in theory you'd think a lot more segregation would be needed for games such as City v West Ham and City v Chelsea compared to the derby.
