Tottenham are currently third in the Premier League, in the last 16 of the Champions League and in the semi-final of the League Cup.

Sunderland are third in League One, and were knocked out of the League Cup at the first-round stage at the hands of Sheffield Wednesday.

Yet, quite incredibly, more fans turned up to watch the Blacks Cats in their League One match against Bradford City - a game they would go on to win 1-0.

To be fair, 46,039 is hugely impressive. Hugely so. It was the third biggest attendance in the country.

Tottenham, on the other hand, 'only' had 45,154 watch their 5-0 drubbing of Bournemouth at Wembley.
