Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Txuri-urdin — The claim about San Sebastián having one of the highest percentages of fans per capita in Spain is unsubstantiated and likely exaggerated, making it a factual error.

Reale Arena — The entry states the stadium was known as the Reale Arena until 2025, but the sponsorship name Reale Arena began in 2019 and the stadium reverted to Anoeta in 2024, making the phrasing misleading.

Reale Arena — The capacity for September 2019 completion is quoted as 39,500, but the official capacity after the 2019 renovation is 39,313.

Javier Clemente — The entry states Clemente guided Real Sociedad to the 1987 Copa del Rey title and two Supercopa victories, but Clemente never managed Real Sociedad; the 1987 Copa del Rey was won by Real Sociedad under John Toshack.

Javier Clemente — The tagline 'The architect of modern Real Sociedad and champion of Basque football identity' is factually incorrect because Clemente had no managerial affiliation with Real Sociedad.

1980-81 Golden Era Peak (Copa del Rey Final) — The captain in 1980-81 was not Jesús María Zamora; the captain was actually Alberto Górriz.

1993-94 La Liga 3rd Place Finish — The claim that Javier Irureta was the manager in the 1993-94 season is incorrect; the manager was John Toshack.

1993-94 La Liga 3rd Place Finish — The claim that this was the club's highest league standing since the 1980-81 title win is incorrect; Real Sociedad finished 2nd in 1987-88.

1987-88 Copa del Rey Champion — The 'DID YOU KNOW' section states the club had 'two Copa del Rey titles' before the 1987 victory, but they had only one prior Copa del Rey (1909), making this claim inaccurate.

Copa del Rey Win 1987 — The 1987 Copa del Rey final was played on June 27, 1987, at the Estadio La Romareda in Zaragoza, not at the Santiago Bernabéu in Madrid.

Copa del Rey Win 1987 — Txiki Begiristain did not score two goals in the final; the goalscorers for Real Sociedad were Roberto López Ufarte (2 goals) and Txiki Begiristain (1 goal), making the final score 2-2 after extra time, with Real Sociedad winning on penalties (4-2), not 3-2.

La Liga Title 1981-82 — The entry title says 'La Liga Title 1981-82', but the correct season is 1980–81.

La Liga Title 1981-82 — The entry claims José Ángel Iribar was the captain for the 1980–81 title-winning season, but he retired in 1980; the captain was Jesús María Zamora.
