St Mary's Stadium is the 32,689 capacity home of Southampton F.C.

The Saints have been in residence since 1 August 2001 when they moved from the The Dell.

The stadium is a complete bowl, with four stands, all of equal height. These are named after the areas of Southampton they face, when looking from the centre circle.

The main (east) stand is the Itchen Stand, and faces the River Itchen

The opposite stand is called the Kingsland Stand. Behind the south goal is the Chapel Stand, and to the north is the Northam Stand.

At the rear of the Itchen Stand, there are 42 executive boxes, and a police control room.

The stand also houses the club's offices, changing rooms, press facilities and corporate hospitality suites.

The four main hospitality suites are named after some of Saints' greatest players, Terry Paine, Mick Channon, Bobby Stokes and Matt Le Tissier.

The Northam Stand is home to the most vocal Saints supporters, as well as visiting fans.
