Many times. Is actually awesome. 7 or 8k enclosed stadium.

Lovely little intimate stadium which feels like you’ve got 30000 there if full. Nothing worse than a minority sport at a massive stadium. 5k people in a 25000 seater (eg Jahn Stadion in Berlin) feels like a reserve game. 4000 in a 7000 capacity stadium feels like a full house.

Teams like RKC over here don’t pretend to be Barcelona though. All very approachable. More like semi pro in the U.K.
