Means there were more than 5000 plus empty seats. Bearing in mind that nearly as many as the away end holds where were they?
I was in the ponty Not 6000 empty seats though surely East stand holds around 8000 it would have had to be to be half full.
the ponty end was half empty as was the west stand, and there were a few empty seats that i could see in the east
RE: I was in the ponty Almost all of the last block of the East Lower (ponty end) empty and looked the same at the far end.</p> West lower only sparsely populated and upper half empty.</p> So unless the Ponty was full the numbers stack up right for me.</p>
I thought the official attendance looked about right. Often looks dubious but thought it was right today.
East Stand was no more that 2/3rds full same for Ponty, couldnt see the West properly from within it - The Sunderland half looked full and usual empty seats in the bit I could see
