Same size as a chip butty smothered in gravy. Humongous
I couldn’t disagree more mate. We can’t expect an outsider to come in and spend a fortune and our ‘pissed off with years of ****e’ fans not bother returning. I’m the only one left out of a dozen of us that had season tickets when the SoL opened and I’d like nowt better than for them to be tempted back by a half decent team.Don’t want them back thanks. The 30k hardcore lot who go now are all we need.
What's going on here?How big is our catchment area in the North East? South Shields, County Durham etc
Think someone is talking about size of stadium, is the OP a skunk?Digressing slightly, but I watched the Chelsea game earlier and apparently Luton came out after half time around 5 mins late because the clock in the changing room at the Chelsea spa health center place where they had to be was incorrect. Now, we can all have shiney new stadiums and academy's and stuff but for a premier league team live on tv that seems very amature to me. That was one of the things that I was impressed with when Johnson came in when he pointed that out about replacing the batteries in some of our clocks that were broken.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that there is a bit more to it than saying "my stadium is bigger than your stadium"![]()

Until we loose 3 in a row and the tickle twats will be off, I'm quite happy with the hard-core we have who hurt when we loose not change their colours. A mag in a Sunderland shirt will still stink of ****.If things are right on the pitch and somehow we manage to do what Leicester have done and sustain it. We would defo fill 66,000 playing top teams every week and challenging for trophies.
There are a few club in the country that could do that, however I believe we are one of them the knars
Well saidUntil we loose 3 in a row and the tickle twats will be off, I'm quite happy with the hard-core we have who hurt when we loose not change their colours. A mag in a Sunderland shirt will still stink of ****.
Any one that calls themselves a fan but will only turn up coz we're playing Man City can kiss my arse
Our catchment area covers the city, county Durham and South Tyneside which around 700,000 people. Not all of the people will support the club, but that is our main catchment area. we obviously have a lot of fans from outside the main catchment area as well though.
Poseidon is a MackemSunderland has magnificent support whatever the case ...
... half of the area, in a circle from the ground, is the sea.
Always thought there was something fishy about some of our fans..Sunderland has magnificent support whatever the case ...

Will Lee Johnson be good enough to turn the tide and get us promoted?Always thought there was something fishy about some of our fans..

Given the SOL capacity was initially 20,000 bigger than Roker Park, were fans sceptical that we couldn't fill it?
