    They get 'barely' 50k for most games. The Atmosphere is dreadful. Don't know who they were playing, but last week at home in the PL there couldn't have been 40k there and the place was less than half full at the end.

    To add, there forum[s] are full of comments about the ground and the atmosphere, and talk of a new, purpose built stadium - without a running track. They reckon there were 15,000 empty seats at their last home game v Burnley.

    Yes, although the likelihood is that they're paid for seats, so count towards the actual attendance. This is London, you have businesses buying up seats for corporate partners etc, affluent people who can afford to buy an expensive season ticket and use it as and when. Arsenal have some spaces at their ground, as do Man City. It's not uncommon.
