Still loads left really. Two social distancing blocks plus the 3 blocks in the corner will obviously still be unsold. 3 blocks behind the goal that are open are still only half full.

It would be interesting to see if the club would open the social distancing blocks tomorrow as normal if the demand was there.

Effectively they will, because it is not 'policed' anyway. Pay on the dayers 'we sit where we want !'

Medium ,sunderland pretty big club have an attendance thread every match on their forum 🤣

Plymouth v Sunderland tomorrow. Mackems lose that, and I suspect they'll miss out on the play offs. despite potentially gaining 80 plus points. Ridiculous amount needed to get into play offs in that division. Still a big gap between Championship and L1, That's why I want Sheff Wed and Sunderland to stay there, as they ought to have the resources to establish a foothold back in the Championship. Funnily enough, I think MK Dons brand of football might suit them at a higher level. Rotherham will go straight back down again, as might Wigan.

Can't really knock Sunderland, getting 33k at home in the 3rd division.

Its really tight for the playoff spots. I doubt that a loss puts them out of it. But a win against Plymouth certainly makes them a favourite to make a playoff spot. Its in their hands although Plymouth and Rotherham to play means they likely need to win one of those.

They seem to be on a run of results at the moment, picking up some vital points with late goals (where have i heard that before?)...... IMO they make the playoffs but don't go up.

If we have in excess of 23k, I think that is a decent effort - it will be comfortably the most home fans up there this season)

I think tomorrow's crowd will prove we are probably not.

It'll be the 2nd or 3rd highest attendance out of the 30 football league fixtures tomorrow. Not sure what people are expecting. We're also selling out every game on the road at the moment with ease. If it weren't for limited allocations we'd be taking huge followings right now.

It is a staggering turnaround from the lows of a few years back. We shouldn't be too hard on ourselves.

I also fancy a very big walk up tomorrow.

When you compare it to our crowds in the last 10 years it's an incredible achievement.

However, I like many other think this club is bigger than what it is. I feel we should be getting late 20s for a game of this magnitude. We haven't been in a position like this since we were relegated from the PL 21 years ago.

We are in a long rebuilding phase. No other club has been through what we've been through when you consider the time scale. Others have had a few difficult years but we had nearly 15 and played outside the city twice.

Taking the kids to Weymouth tomorrow for the week. Gutted.

Coincidentally, we went to Weymouth last week, came back Good Friday.

It's a nice place.

I think the East Stand being sold out is more important for the atmosphere than the North Stand. Obviously we would want both being sold out in an ideal world but the East generates all the noise and the North Stand has become the unofficial family stand.
One or two games they’ve woken the east stand up

I'm slightly surprised why behind the goal stand less popular. The view is great and having grown up standing in west end and kop and upper west stand seating season ticket holder, I much prefer being behind goal high up personally. Easier to get to the facilities of the concourse too. If it's more a family stand, nothing wrong with that.

There was always going to be a massive queue this morning. There are some people who still don't buy online and ticket office has been closed for 3 days. Loads turned up Saturday trying to buy tickets.
