Instead of the pathetic abuse how about one of you attempts to answer the question. How will it look to Short, O Neill, Johnson, Fletcher if the stadium has 20,000 empty seats tonight, taking everything that I mentioned into consideration? How will that look?
I'm sure Ellis has driven through Sunderland, so he's probably well aware of the fact that the city is not exactly dripping in gold. Therefore he won't be surprised if a League Cup match doesn't pull a big crowd, even with reduced prices.
O' Neill was the manager of Villa and Leicester. Fletcher played for Wolves. Adam Johnson played (or sat on the bench) for Man City, who despite spunking gazillions on players and winning the league, still managed not to fill their ground for every single match. He also played for the smog monsters, 'nuff said.
I would say empty seats in an early round of the f***ing league cup will look pretty normal to them, as it will to most of us.
