If we were to extend the stadium for the Euros, would we have to pay for it or would the governing body who organise the tournament fund it?

Funded by Uefa/FA and yes it'll be extended for sure, likely to increase to 55k which will send the mags into a right tizz.

Unbelievably, there are lots of stadiums in the UK. I don’t think they’ll fund any club to expand their stadium, they’ll simply choose out of the selection they currently have.

Yep, and if they want to ‘level up’ with a venue in the North East there’s a shit tip just up the road with a bigger capacity without spending a penny.
 
We'd only extend it if we go up and get the stadium bid for the euros I reckon. Wouldn't necessarily agree with that as we didn't particularly fill it when we were in the Prem anyway

We could see it extended in future if we give up and stay up. The city is increasing in size and if studio and arena developments come off we'll see a different Sunderland

Yep. Forecasts suggest that we could have attendances in excess of 70k in 15 years time due to population growth and people desperately wanting to witness Jack Clarke's skills live.

They could take it all the way round for 63k could they? Might as well.

Yep. Can increase further still too if they add a third tier.

Much as he's playing well you'd hope we'd have someone younger and better in 15 years mind.
