To substantiate your point of view on this, you have needed to go back 40 years with your talk of Sunderland and Pompey gates which is not comparing like with like. That's on the way to two generations ago. Those numbers were also highly dubious as you know! There are more of us now and let's also take into account the huge increase in women attending games in that time which further increases the demand.
You then repeat the claim that Sunderland have ways been better numbered than us which has already been dismissed as false with sourced information about the gates at Roker Park.
The project needs to be looking four generations ahead, not four years. There needs to be enough head room to profit from good seasons, Premiership runs, big FA Cup draws and extended non football use.
It needs to be 35k for that.
