Scottish football attendance records

Scottish football attendance records

This article lists Scottish football attendance records under the categories listed below.

By club

Current clubs

This is a list of all 42 Scottish Premier League and Football League clubs' record match attendances at their home ground. The vast majority of these records were achieved before the advent of all-seater stadia. The cost of building all-seater grounds, and a general decline in attendances, means the present capacities of the clubs stadiums are well below their record attendances.

Some records were achieved at a clubs previous ground, rather than their current location, for example Clyde's record is at Shawfield Stadium, whilst they have since moved to Broadwood Stadium. Records set while ground-sharing or at a venue other than the club's home stadium are not included.

Rangers' record attendance of 118,567 is a British record for a league match. [cite news|url=http://www.rangers.premiumtv.co.uk/page/Stadium/0,,5,00.html|title=A Look at Ibrox' s Rich History|accessdate-2008-02-27|publisher=www.rangers.co.uk]
