The Sir Bobby Charlton Stand

The Sir Bobby Charlton Stand is the smallest stand at Old Trafford but contains the managers bench area, the directors/ television/ police control boxes and luxury restaurants and executive suites. It is rarely seen on television as it contains the TV gantry, which looks North. The players tunnel used to be at the centre of this stand but in 1993 it was moved to the South-west corner. The old tunnel still remains and is opened for special occasions and stadium tours. The seating slopes at a different angle to the rest of the stadium, making it slightly lower than the other stands. The first 20 or so rows of seats around all four sides of the ground are below street level.

It is often regarded as one of the quieter stands at Old Trafford, basically because the view from the seats stand are so good. This invites alot of VIPs who only come for the day out, so it quietens the atmosphere.
