The first match at the Riverside Stadium following the clubs move from Ayresome Park, 2.6km to the south-west and their home for the previous 92 years, was a Premier league fixture against Chelsea on 26 August 1995 which was watched by 28,286 - the clubs highest home gate in 14 years.
The stadiums original capacity was 30,000, and an expansion in 1998 took it 35,100. Modernisation of the stadium in recent years, including seat reconfiguration, has reduced the capacity to its current level of 33,746. The club record attendance of 34,836 was set on 28 December 2004 when Norwich City visited for a Premier League match, though a conveniently round 35,000 witnessed England's World Cup qualifying match with Slovenia on 11 June 2003 and remains the official stadium record, despite some sources giving an attendance of 33,106.
