Before starting this review, let's get one thing clear - I'm definitely in the 'Anyone But United' camp when it comes to football, and there are few things on a Saturday afternoon that bring a bigger smile to my face than seeing the red devils lose a match. That said however, even I can't help but be filled with admiration for the enormous structure that is Old Trafford, home to arguably the biggest football club in the world, and sadly, the nearest football ground to my house. Since the inception of the Premiership in 1992, Old Trafford has evolved from an old fashioned, outdated and somewhat delapidated stadium, to the largest club stadium in England, ...  Read the complete review

Old Trafford is the largest club football ground in England boasting a capacity of 76,212 and is home to Manchester United FC. I've never visited Old Trafford as an away fan but only to see England draw 0-0 with Macedonia, so I can not comment on the Manchester United fans atmosphere. Walking around Old Trafford though is impressive with the statue of Sir Matt Busby in front of the glass windows and the big red Old Trafford sign.

Old Trafford is home to Manchester United, who is one of the best teams in the world. The stadium has a massive capacity of roughly 76,000 and is one of the biggest stadiums in the world!

Most of the fans sing songs and football chants and if everyone is shouting the noise is phenomenal. This happened in a match I saw ...  Read the complete review

Old Trafford, home to Man U, is (aside from Wembly), the most famous stadium, definiely for a league club, and is the biggest outside of Wembly and the Millenium Stadium. The worlds best players are here, and more than 75000 people can come here on a weekend and see their teams play. Because of the size of this stadium, you can expect there to be a large concourse, and there is, and I am not just refering the the amounts of food and drink outlets, the concourse is so wide, that it isnt as crowded as you would expect. This stadium was used by England a lot while Wembly was being rebuilt, and if the world cup comes to this country, Old Trafford would play a huge part in ...  Read the complete review
