Which is the biggest stadium in the Super League?

Old Trafford Stadium (here is the introduction)

The design of Old Trafford Stadium pursues solemn and magnificent visual effects in the use of colors. Old Trafford is proud of the beautiful red stands surrounded by Manchester United jerseys. On the platform of the North Station, the words "Machinist United" are spelled out in white seats, and the east and west stands are the names of Sharp and umbro, the biggest sponsors of Machester United. The capacity of the whole stadium is 55,320 people, and the average attendance rate is as high as 55 1.64 people. In addition to ordinary seats, there are family stands, private boxes, seats for away fans and seats for the disabled. Each kind of chair is perfectly arranged for a specific object. The family stands located in the southwest corner of the stadium are only open to family members of club members or other sightseeing groups organized by the club. The private box provides closed-circuit television to play slow motion or replay the shooting scene, and is equipped with a special attendant. The disabled stands are not only specially designed with convenient passages and toilets, but also provide wheelchairs and headphones for the blind to listen to the live commentary.

Old Trafford has the best lawn in the world. This lawn 1 16 yards long and 76 yards wide is planted with four different colors of grass. Near the goal, a kind of turf called Kentucky bluegrass imported from the United States was specially paved, which was particularly resistant to trampling. The ceilings of the four stands in the southeast and northwest are designed as transparent squares to ensure that the lawn can get enough sunshine. Take good care of the lawn, mow it three times a week from April to June 1 65438+1October, and mow it once a week from June165438+1October to March of the following year. Usually, except for players and staff, the lawn is strictly forbidden to enter. Away teams can only enter the stadium 1 hour in advance to warm up. Three underground fountains make the lawn well watered even in dry season. All the water circulates in a 55,000-gallon storage tank under the East Stand. There are miles of heating pipes under the ground, which can be quickly thawed in case of frost and snow. In addition, the lawn drainage system is also first-class. The middle of the lawn is 9 inches higher than the wings, and some small plastic pipes carry the rain away. This ensures that the game will not be postponed because of bad weather.

The stadium is surrounded by four stands in the southeast and northwest. The south stand is the oldest one, with the director's office, printing department and executive suite below. However, the two most distinctive scenery in the South Stand should belong to Busby Statue and Munich Clock. The hands hanging high in the Munich clock will always stop at the heartbreaking moment of1958 February 6 at 8: 15. Sir Busby rebuilt Manchester United from the ruins after the air crash. To commemorate his achievements, the club put his statue here. Busby rested her right hand on her hips, held the ball in her left hand and stared ahead, as if silently praying for the Red Devils' tomorrow.

1March, 1995 17, Manchester United president Edwards announced the completion of the grand reconstruction project of the north stand. The whole project cost190,000 pounds, and the huge stand was supported by 4,000 tons of steel bars and 4,500 tons of cement. Its seating capacity has increased to 25 1 10, and there are 3 1 luxury "sky boxes" on the top of the second floor of the third-floor stand. In addition, the importance of the North Stand lies in the control center, studio and the famous Red Devils Coffee House at the top of its west corner. The East Stand was also rebuilt in the summer of 1994. For the sake of safety, being pulled off the lawn inevitably makes many fans feel a little sorry. On its left is a huge electronic scoreboard. 1993, a new international standard auditorium was built in the west stand, which can accommodate 400 people at the same time, and is specially used for holding banquets, weddings or celebrating the birthdays of football stars.

Although Manchester United fans are the craziest fans in the world, the security system at Old Trafford is one of the most advanced in Britain. Main control room is supported by a red bracket and surrounded by a glass curtain wall. Automatic doors can identify employees and open them. The 27 screens in the control room are connected with cameras distributed at different angles inside and outside the venue. The camera of each monitor can freely expand and contract to freeze and enlarge any face of the audience. In addition, the security guards patrolling outside the venue are equipped with binoculars, which are also connected to the monitoring system. Once there is a riot in a certain area, the perpetrators are easily tracked by the staff. Intelligent computer system can control the speed of people entering and leaving the stadium, and can also automatically give the plan of personnel arrangement. It will first classify the safety level of away fans according to historical data. For example, fans of Liverpool and Leeds United are classified as Class C, which requires high security measures and a large number of police officers. Coventry belongs to Class B, with a small number of police, while civilized audiences like Wimbledon fans belong to Class A, and only a few security guards are needed. Although the club has always advocated the use of less police force in staffing, it should ensure a certain number of police force, because security guards have no right to arrest spectators at critical moments. There are three detention rooms under the monitoring room, which are used to separate men, women and children. In addition, a nursing team consisting of 12 doctors and 12 nurses was assigned to a specific position on the court on the match day, so as to complete most of the nursing work before entering the physiotherapy room.

An interesting phenomenon is that the Old Trafford Stadium has two passages, one is the central passage and the other is the player passage. The central passage was built in 19 10, which is the only part of the old stadium that survived the air raid in 194 1. The central passage has been used until 1993, completing its historical mission. Many players in Manchester United have formed the habit of jumping into the stadium because of its large internal inclination and steep slope. Now Manchester United players are obviously much luckier. The newly-built player tunnel is spacious enough to drive into a heavy truck. The new passage has gentle ground slope, good lighting and convenient photography. At the entrance of the passage, a self-expanding white awning was specially installed. When the player's door comes out from the inside, the canopy will automatically open to protect the player from the debris accidentally dropped by the audience.

The facilities at Old Trafford Stadium are full of meticulous care for the players. A series of players' locker rooms, laundry rooms and lounges in the stands all adopt the most scientific and practical design scheme. The wall of the locker room is natural wood grain color, and the players' clothes are neatly hung on the wall. Each player has a comfortable leather lounge chair designed according to the human body curve. The dressing room has six showers, six bathrooms, two bathtubs and a luxurious mineral spring pool. There is a special person in charge of the team members' clothing. He must find out each player's preferences, such as whether they like to wear long sleeves or short sleeves, and change clothes at halftime. To ensure that players don't have to be distracted by anything outside the game. Players' schedules are strictly controlled. They must eat three hours before the game. The food is usually chicken, fish, macaroni, fresh vegetables and salad. The lounge is opposite the dressing room. Players usually come here to read newspapers or videos and have a cup of tea or coffee after dinner. Their families and girlfriends will also be treated well here. The children are looked after by the nanny. The furnishings in the lounge are also very intriguing. Crimson carpet, low sofa, and an honor bar on the wall on the left side of the door. Any player who plays all the international games in Manchester United and wins can carve his name here. Then there is a row of big photo frames to show the Manchester United captain before World War II. People can easily find familiar faces like Charlton and Robson here. There is also a special souvenir hanging on the photo frame, which is a large metal medal hand-made by a prisoner to celebrate Manchester United winning the European Champions Cup in 1968. With the permission of the government, he presented this medal to Sir Charlton, the captain of the competition. It has been on display here ever since.

Of course, if you want to visit Manchester United souvenirs, you have to visit museums. After Bailey cut the ribbon, the new museum 1994 was officially opened to the public. The history of Manchester United from 1878 to today is recorded in detail. The museum consists of a dazzling array of trophy galleries, dream galleries and celebrity galleries, each of which is absolutely a master design. You can walk in the gallery and enjoy the huge photos of the stars on both sides while assembling your own Manchester United dream team. You can also go to the simulation studio, change the earphone microphone, choose a classic Manchester United game and make your own "live commentary". After visiting history, people always like to go to the nearby red cafe. It is open all day except match day. Here you will always be infected by the atmosphere of football. A screen as big as a wall plays the wonderful scenes of Manchester United 24 hours a day. You know, this is not just a place to drink coffee.

In addition, the well-run Manchester United Club has opened three souvenir shopping malls at Old Trafford Stadium, the largest of which covers an area of 6,000 square feet and is located behind the west stand, which was set up by the Ferguson Executive Committee. There is also a supermarket in the front yard of the East Stand, and a smaller shopping center in the northeast corner of the stadium, which is only open on match days. They all deal in goods authorized by the club.

Varieties are constantly being introduced. Many fans love to bring back some small things as souvenirs while bringing back good memories after watching the ball or watching the ball.
