Sunderland Announce ''Ground-Breaking'' Deal With StubHub

[Le Chuck]

will this also apply for away games? so could I effectively put my Mags away ticket up for 'auction' and be all official & that? (not that I would anyway)

Not from my understanding, they were only interested in home games and season ticket holders.

StubHub take a 25% chunk of whatever you sell the ticket for.

I don't get it.......
If I can't make it to a game I give my ticket to a mate, or the Bairn takes one of his mates......
Why would you sell it on, what happens if the kidda that buys your ticket/seat is a dickhead and causes loads of shite.
Do the club print off tickets so you can sell them on instead of giving someone your season card, if so what if you sell at an inflated price.

can't see many bothering with that. Don't think they'll make much money out of it tbh. I think most will just give their ticket away to family & friends for the odd game they can't make.

If I can't go (happens about 4 games a season) I struggle like fuck to even give them away

Nee way will people be buying them from Stub Hub (rip off bastards)

That's what we told them but what about the people that don't live local or have nobody to give it to or people that work away for large chunks? There is a market for it but how big it is at Sunderland, who knows? Arsenal have a partnership with viagogo I think it is and do the same thing and it apparently works very, very well.

In reality tickets will be cheaper on StubHub.

Dinnar, there's been the odd game we've had tickets we couldn't even give away (Man City on NYD for example, had about 4 or 5 spares going, think Stoke was another).
