Stadium of Light, Sunderland – Review.

Sunderland 1-1 Bradford City (2-4 pens), Football League Trophy. 9th November 2021.

Stadium Location – ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Metro station and bus stops are only a five minute walk away. The stadium is situated across the river from the city centre, meaning you are only 10 minutes from food and drink options.

Parking – ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Being only 10 minutes from the city centre, there are several multistorey car parks to choose from. High Street West Car Park was free for this Tuesday night kick-off.

Seat View – ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Block U4, East Stand. Unrestricted view of the entire pitch.

Atmosphere – ⭐

Just one stand was open for this Football League Trophy fixture, with it nowhere near full. Only hundreds in attendance - rather than the capacity 40,000, it looked a sorry site.
