Capacity?[edit]

The US - England match had an attendance of 38,646. Was this not a sell-out or is the stadium's capacity less than 44,000? Delmlsfan (talk) 23:33, 13 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The capacity of the Royal Bafokeng Stadium after the 2009 expansion is supposed to be 44,530, but the user Thenoflyzone changed it back to what may have been its original capacity of 38,646, which was derived from a source in which the capacity is mentioned. This sounds like something that can spark an edit war if the latter capacity is put back into the article. I can submit that 44,026 is the correct capacity, and that logically, the Group C match between England and the United States was not a sellout. Jim856796 (talk) 05:24, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
