two sides to every coin Stan and you put far more emphasis on the stadium than the likes of Adidas would have. The stadium mattered more for United back then because tv revenue and commercial revenue was in its infancy compared to today.
Global companies are interested in being associated with success and teams with a large global fanbase. The size of the stadium is irrelevant to them if the team is winning
Buts thats never the case over the long term. Of course they are interested in success and large fan base but I can think of no top european club with a small stadium utd, bayerb, barca, madrid. Clubs which have been at the top for decades and stay there United will be back eventually dont you worry about that. So for us to succeed with a small stadium will be breaking new ground and I dont see any of those clubs reducing capacity. The stadium is not an end in itself no but an important part of the mix.
