Brisbane Road

The highest attendance at the ground was 34,345 for the visit of West Ham United in an FA Cup fourth round tie on 25 January 1964.

In 2012 Brisbane Road hosted the final of the inaugural NextGen series, a competition for the academy sides of elite clubs.

[1] Brisbane Road has seen several developments in its history, but due to the Second World War the first major improvement was the levelling of a grass bank and crash barrier installation in 1949.

In 1962, with Leyton Orient gaining promotion to the First Division, another wing was added to the Main Stand, raising the seating capacity to 3,500.

In 1996 the terracing at the southern end of the ground was demolished and used as a car park while National Lottery funding to build a stand was unsuccessfully sought.

The eventual bids from both West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur to move into the stadium,[3] with capacity nearer 60,000, effectively ended Orient's interest.

The club bought it from Mitcham Stadium in 1955 to replace the small existing stand, which could hold 500 people.

[5] The East Stand, which at the time included the club's offices and dressing rooms, then remained largely unaltered until 1999, when the narrow section of terracing at the front of the structure was made all-seater.

There are also executive seats in the middle of the stand (the old directors' box, now known as the Wyvern Suite) but these are not ordinarily used by any supporters.

It replaces a former open terrace, has a capacity of 1,351 with provision for 15 disabled supporters and their helpers, and like the Main Stand has the letters LOFC spelled out in black seats.
