The match yesterday against Man U was that little extra enjoyable knowing we have eventually secured our season tickets for next season. @BlcSafc & @RedAndWhite2017 have gone well above and beyond our expectations in pushing the football club all the way to reversing their decision and granting us GA season tickets for 26/27. Massive respect to all who helped, including @JamesCopley_ for his publicity. Fingers crossed our fellow fans in similar situations get the same result. #HawayTheLads

Special cases definitely need to be considered, and I'm not sure it gets much more special than a family who only moved into 76 Yards because of the mobility of a now sadly deceased relative, and they now want to move back because of the cost. Why wouldn't they facilitate that?

Business Business Business. ALL Business Safc do should be to keep the club, the team performance, the fans and the community healthy first and foremost. This podcast is just 3 blokes that enjoy extracting money. Talking about how to do it with Sunderland AFC. It’s ours!Not yours

Maybe a bit of PTSD from the Madrox era but… I wish #SAFC wouldn’t do stuff like this. Always ends up coming back to bite us It’s also clear to see by this podcast why people’s season tickets are being put to the back of the queue 💰💰💰
Sunderland’s rise this season has been one of the standout stories in football. A club that has spent the last decade fighting its way up, is now flying in its first season back in the Premier League. Tom Burwell, interim CEO, has seen this up close as a board member, but is now stepping up with a club that is building a model that can actually sustain their place in the top flight. Because @SunderlandAFC isn’t a typical football club… 1 in 10 people in the city holds a season ticket. And business decisions aren’t just financial, they’re cultural. So now comes the hardest part. Turning a local, community-driven club into a global Premier League business without losing what made it special in the first place. 🗣️ “ The relentless obsession for performance on & off the field has to be our driver” That shift changes everything: - How you grow revenue - How you build a fanbase - How you approach sponsorship - How you think about media and storytelling But more importantly, how do you build a modern football club.

They sold my 88yo nanna, and mam's, before the 1st DD date last season Gave them seats apart, refused to move the people who had gotten their seats that they'd had since ground opening. New ST holders for old seats never showed all season. This season still wont give them back.

Cant help fellow #SAFC fans with away tickets, cant move price bands, cant downgrade from 76 yards if the astronomical price means you cant afford it anymore. Support NEC Nijimegan? In you come, how many tickets would you like, Robin Roefs will be here to greet you. Disgrace.

40 YEARS COUNT FOR NOTHING SAFC. I can't believe the way my family have been treated regarding our season tickets, as season ticket holder for last 20-years and hardly missing a home match the last 40-years I have been refused a new season ticket as I want to move from 76 yards to general admission. 2 years ago we moved into the black cats bar as my dad had mobility issues and struggled getting into his seat, we reluctantly agreed to stay when changing to the 76 yards as we new it would be my dad's last season, with help from family/friends we managed to absorb the astonishing price increase from £850 to around £2300. Unfortunately my dad joined the Heaven Branch in February. As we are/we're season ticket holders we presumed we would just move seat next season. When we informed the club we would like to move back to general admission we were told we would have to join the waiting list which had already Been accepting people for 3 weeks. I reached out further to club liason officers and they agreed I had a special case and would review this week's ago, with no reply from latest emails I was loosing hope and have just received a phone call from ticket office to say they have refused my request. After supporting our club through some of the darkest days especially the last 10 years I have now been brushed to one side as they have enough demand to fill the place without my family. Thank you very much SAFC @CWaters_SAF @SunderlandAFC @RedAndWhite2017 @RokerReport @ALS_Fanzine @Phil__Smith @SunderlandEcho @TheDiddyman1 @Capt_Fishpaste @SkySports_Keith @Tweed_Barnesy @BlcSafc @ConnorBromley @mickylough95 @TheWearsiders
