Old Trafford is by far the largest club ground in Britain and is all-seater, which is a legal requirement of all higher league British club grounds and new stadium developments since the Taylor Report in the early 1990s. The ground's recent expansion has been achieved through filling in the corners on either side of the North Stand, in order to provide about 9,000 additional seats and produce three-quarters of a "bowl"-effect. The only stand that remains single-tiered is the South Stand, and its development is hindered by a railway line located directly behind it. While this could be built over, at least fifty residential properties would have to be demolished for any expansion to be possible, making improvements to the other stands the cheaper option. Further development, taking the capacity to 96,000, will require this expensive house demolition and engineering.

This record is being re-broken on a frequent basis as Manchester United continue to find new sections of the stadium to open. The latest Premiership attendance record to be set was set on 4 November 2006 when 76,004 spectators saw United beat Portsmouth FC 3-0.

The Stretford End is the west stand of the stadium and is where the diehard fans have historically been situated.
