football had been played at st james' park as early as 1880, the ground being occupied by newcastle rangers, before becoming the home of newcastle west end f.c. in 1886. its lease was then bought by newcastle east end f.c. in 1892, before they changed their name to newcastle united. at the turn of the 19th century, the ground's capacity was given as 30,000 before being redeveloped between 1900 and 1905, increasing the capacity to 60,000 and making it the biggest stadium in england for a time. for most of the 20th century, the stadium changed very little, despite various plans for development of the ground. the old west stand was replaced with the milburn stand in 1987, the sir john hall stand replacing the leazes end in 1993, and the rest of the ground renovated making the ground a 37,000 capacity all-seater stadium. between 1998 and 2000, double tiers were added to the milburn and john hall stands to bring the venue up to its current capacity of 52,354. there were plans to build a new 90,000 seater stadium in leazes park, just behind st james' with newcastle falcons taking over st james' park, but due to protests the plans were dropped. st james' park currently seats 52,354 people, but club owner mike ashley would consider taking the roof off the gallowgate end and adding another 6,000 seats making the total capacity to 58,420, but only if the team manage to finish in the top six places of the premier league.
