Surely this should be Old trafford Stadium, as it is a stadium, and not a football, also it is not exclusivley used for football matches. I propose a move to Old Trafford (stadium). Anyone have any points? Philc T E C I 22:32, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
I've set Old Trafford to redirect to this page. I'd advise keeping the title as it is, however, since it's useful to distinguish the football ground from the cricket ground. Also, any name change would mean having to change all the links to this page. -- Daduzi talk 07:12, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
Could someone sort out the first paragraph please? Wembley is a football stadium so the statement regarding largest football stadium in the uk is erroneous and also Twickenham is a larger stadium so the statement regarding it being the second largest stadium overall is also false. Some tidying up is required. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C5:3517:4600:1998:B7E1:85DF:6671 ( talk) 20:10, 23 October 2018 (UTC)
It still claims to be the second largest overall, please define as second largest association football stadium overall or 3rd largest stadium overall (rugby union is also a form of football and one of several different forms of football played in both the UK and worldwide and Twickenham is larger).
I've been looking at articles on all the other UEFA 5-Star european stadiums and they have pictures of the stadiums whereas this article just has the Man Utd emblem, shouldn't there be an image of the stadium instead? Mr. mister 13:49, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
yeah its much better now, thanks Mr. mister 13:49, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
I can't help feeling that "Old Trafford (football)" is a most unsatisfactory name for this article. How would people feel if I proposed moving this page to " Old Trafford Stadium", with a view to moving the other Old Trafford to " Old Trafford Cricket Ground"? DJR ( T) 21:26, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

I can find no evidence on the internet of such a proposal and considering the proximity of a railway line beind the South Stand I'd imagine such a move just isn't possible. I suggest this part be removed. Niall123 17:11, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
Sir Alex Ferguson and David Gill have both mentioned in past interviews the desire to increase the capacity of the South stand, and taking Old Traffords capacity to over 90 000. I think it deserves a mention. Paulscholesscoresgoals 18.33 2 January 2007
it was mentioned by the tour guide last time i went on the tour, they would need to build a huge tunnel like structure over the railway and buy the properties on the other side of the railway so they have space for evacuations and parking for an extra few thousand people. its not completly unrealistic but i'd expect 10-15 years before any work is done to acheive this. this work would bring the capacity above 90000, then you can talk about making it all a 3 tier bowl.

Never done this editing thing before. The page says that Old Trafford will soon be joined by Wembley as the only 5 star UEFA stadium in England but the Wikipedia UEFA stadium page says Old Trafford, Wembley and The Emirates are all on UEFA's 5 star list.

The head groundsman at Old Trafford is Tony Sinclair. I wasn't sure how to get this info into the article without it seeming a bit out of place, but it's there for you to use if you want. - PeeJay 01:07, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
