ESL Grand Final 2008 - *spoiler*

[JasonE]

I mentioned Scruton earlier had a good game, but watch how much good work Ian Kirke did when he came on as well, as he did in last years grand final.

Definitely worth getting up for, I'm annoyed I missed Anderson at half time

 

[dogz08]

What was the crowd out there?

 

[ledzep]

68k i think

 

[Chook Norris]

68k i think

down a bit, but that'd be expecetd due to the rain

 

[dogz08]

68,810

 

[KalgoorlieRed]

Wasn't a full house I read?

 

[dogz08]

Well it fits 76k i believe..

 

[stormtragic]

not sure where 8k could have fit in..didnt see many empty seats

 

[dogz08]

I slept in and missed the game

cos of the big screen the capacity is down to something like 74k..69,000 ain't bad given the sh*tty weather and it was sh*tty, it very nearly snowed up here in oldham yesterday,i defo say the odd flake floating around..then it pissed down..and it still is

i'm in 2 minds as to whether we should take the grand final down to wales and the millennium stadium which has a closed roof..but then again i thought the weather last night added to the game...

Some of the seats are unsellable because they put a big screen in one of the corners for the video ref, thats where the empty seats come from.

I belive that removes about 6,000 seats.

ahh ok...so 68k then is pretty good...were terrible conditions so that would keep some away
