Well we couldn't have been more wrong - 59,032 there today, not bad for an all oversea's friendly at full ticket prices!!
Stadium itself is stuning - very good accoustics too and excellent seating (very comfy!!).
Security should be reviewed though, a couple of spectators got on the pitch (the first of many) and it must have been a good three to four minutes before a steward decided to move to try to tackle them.
Good also to see that once again transportation has been completely forgotten about when building a ground...
