Video footage of the stadium shows fans jumping up and down on the concrete terraces while watching a game.

And the raucous atmosphere can be seen to cause the terraces of the ageing stadium to shake showing gaps between each section of the ground.

The unbelievable video begins to make more sense when you understand that the stadium was built in 1932.

Now over 90-years-old the arena has only been renovated twice in its history – once in 2005 and again in 2014.

And a third commented: “I’d leave and go home.”
