Season card - No Auto Renew

The retail delivered to the suite plays right into that as well. I mean, the like of you and I aren't spending scads in the store every game, but you can bet the tourists are.


I noticed last game that the curry sauce has been given some oomph. It wasn't for the faint-hearted.

I’ve been chatting to a few groups over the season who are just there for the game and they have rinsed club shop….one lad, an arsenal fan had 3 tops with Xhaka on the back for his kids, amongst other things.

That’s an expensive afternoon!

The overseas people in particular pile in because it could be their only chance to go to a PL match. I met a couple of Danes who'd splashed out on Banks on the Wear precisely because of that. If it was going to be once in a lifetime, make the most of it.

I can’t get away with that curry sauce. I could still taste it the day after.

Which loyalty group and colour section are you in?

I can't see a £250 difference but the ubers loyalty tier is £270 estimated in the blue section. It's been a 13.8% increase for adults and 18.2% increase for over 65 so have you paid the correct price and also comparing the correct prices and not an incorrect price due to the club's mistakes?

If it's the 2023'er loyalty tier then the percentage increase is even higher. It's 19% for adults and over 30% for over 65s. The glory supporters are around 4% across the board but the over 65s are only £130 to £160 less which is around 20-24% once prices will be realigned. Last season for over 65 in blue section, it was £330 for EB renewal but for glory supporters it was £480 as it went up £150 or 45%. It was a 25% increase in the other 2 section, yellow and red.

It's clear that since 2023/24 that the club would prefer more adults in the East & West stand paying the higher prices with the concessions in the 2 ends, North & South.

Again, which loyalty group and colour section are you in?

I don't follow as there's nowhere in the 3 loyalty tiers that an adult is £110 more that an over 65 + U18 price. It's £10 in the uber tier, £90 in the 2023'ers and £10 cheaper for new ST holders. Again, are you comparing incorrect prices?

As a percentage increase, the OAP and U18 are similar yellow section but higher in the blue and red sections. As above, the club is increasing prices in certain areas of the ground for those on concession prices.

I am assuming at £376 (South Stand standing) I have been charged the Uber price.
Yet on my personal details it only shows purchases of the last two seasons, Is this the norm?
Been a season ticket holder for over 30 years, including Roker Park.
 
I was considering moving to Quinns from 76 Yards mainly because of the better view of the game on the halfway line and also one of my mates in Quinns has been getting tickets to most away games but it looks like they now stopping people in Quinns getting access to away tickets!

All season ticket records from Roker Park were lost after the move to the SoL. Source: Ticket Office.

I don't think it is them stopping all access to tickets. The % allocation to corporate remains the same, it is just everyone in corporate wants to go to away games now so I believe they are proportioning the tickets between the different corporate suites and then adopting a loyalty/points position in there too (you still build points in Quinns). If you think about it, if all corporate wanted away tickets, there would be no chance for others.

Just had my 76 Yards price through. £1995+VAT, which is an increase of 5.3%. Given my last year's price was heavily discounted, I'm not unhappy.

I'll be honest I thought they might have even just knocked our discount off so still a big increase.
That's not bad at all.
Might only have to go on the game twice a week now.

I was fearing last year's undiscounted price, so the email was a pleasant surprise. I've already replied.
