AFAIK you need a purchase history to get tickets in the home end. So, are Sunderland fans buying and selling tickets? It looks like the only way they could get them to me.

I recon there will be some Newcastle fans with a purchase history, also there will be some Sunderland fans who are willing to sell their tickets or buy additional tickets for Newcastle fans they know. My son has already been asked to get someone one. There will be plenty SAFC fans who aren't even bothering to go to this match, so if a stupid Newcastle fan offers to buy the ticket, some may take them up on the offer. For Wolves, it will be a party game to celebrate promotion so I can't see any of them willing to give them up easily and also how many Newcastle fans will have the means to get hold of them? How many even know any Wolves fans?

There is a much greater chance of Newcastle fans being in the home ends than the Wolves end, IMO.

Probably the 20,000 or so that went missing.

3 sets are not, you separate the home fans from the partisan ones which in this case would be Newcastle and Wolves. There is no bad blood between Newcastle and Wolves. If there was spare tickets which there isn't so it's a pointless discussion anyway I could openly sit next a Wolves fan and say I'm just here to cheer you on beating the mackams because I don't like them and he wouldn't be arsed in the slightest. He's not going to start and beat me up or anything because I am sat there pro his side.

Wolves are playing Hull away this week, do you think Hull are sitting there shitting themselves in case some none wolves fans manage to get a ticket for the away end. Hull couldn't give a shit who is in there as they are all segregated as partisan to them.

The simple fact is there are no spare tickets to be had for the Wolves end, there will be no Mag contingent in there, the whole thing is drama over nothing.

As far as I'm concerned, SAFC should just let them in, If they want to put money into SAFC, let them do it.

Any Sunderland fan buying tickets for Mags need banning for life tbf.

Aye it's much more likely that any sad sacks who want to go to the game can get a ticket in the home end. Sunderland have released naff all to Wolves, whereas there are plenty of seats in the home end.

Why is it that so few were released when it was always going to be in demand?

As far as I am aware, it was to stop you lot getting hold of them. Apparently there's already been some cancelled that they thought had got into the wrong hands. How any Newcastle fans managed to get hold of these I don't know. They should have given Wolves the maximum allocation possible.

The mentality of the people in charge of SAFC is bewildering.
 
There was a Mag on Twitter last night saying he's managed to get a job as a safety steward for our final 2 games as a way of guaranteeing getting access to the SoL and he even put up a phone number for people to ring to apply because apparently we are taking on extra stewards for the last 2 games so they can get in and even get paid for the privilege.

I went back on this morning because I was going to tag SAFC into his conversation but the tweet seemed to have been taken down.
 
No wonder your club is in the shit financially if you sacrifice tens of thousands of pounds of ticket revenue on the back of an internet rumour by restricting ticket sales.

Any Sunderland fan selling their ticket to a Mag or buying a ticket for a mag is never a Sunderland fan anyway!

Well if NUFC are going to be in the home end they are pure trouble makers and are embarrassment to their club and I hope they have their season tickets confiscated and banned from their place. Its unlikely that the true supporter will be coming through any way.
