Standing Enclosure East Stand 3000. Shed held more than the North Terrace, but not sure by how much. Would adjust guesstimate to about 22,000. The Kop I think held 26,000.
January 26, 20197 yr When I started going 77/78 we had the old terrace barriers for the last year. When they were done 78/79 the Shed was around 12,500 the North stand held 11,700 the West Stand 4,000 seats 4,000 benches East Stand 11,000 Giving us 43,200 capacity. With segregation taken into account down the North stand, we only sold out Dippers 78+ 82 fa cup. 79 + 82 against spuds.

I remember coming into the away end as they had just begun that chant. We really needed that win at the time as we were on a terrible run. I'm sure the great support from our fans that day played a big part.
