30,000+ season tickets sold

- Start date
Any indication of how and when they are going to invite applications for the unused season tickets. I am not hopeful as I would want 3 together which seems a big ask.

Those extra 22,000 are no worse thought of by the club than lifers either.

Anyone know what the process will be for those on the waiting list?

More chance of me and Sydney Sweeney going to sheepfolds.

Surely if you're taking her anywhere it would be your scratcher?

Youd have to go back to 99-01 to see full houses every week?. This isn't a criticism of our fans, just the reality is when you see highlights of most games since, we haven't sold out. Saying all that I watched a video on the growth of average attendances over the past decade and west ham was top due their new stadium,they've gained a whopping 27k extra on their average attendance. Funnily enough the world's best supporters, Leeds attendances are up 14k in average in that time
People who were on the waiting list before 23rd February, (I think), will get the first option. It was on the web site somewhere.
I presume that this will be the season ticket equivalent of phase 1.

I doubt the club would dare lie about the number of people on the waiting list.
If they got found out there would be hell on.
15,000 is very impressive.

I’ll be staggered if that number is anywhere near accurate. Our Championship and League One crowds were tremendous and I say all the time our hardcore is the loyalist there is imo, but I don’t see at all how so many extra Sunderland fans are supposedly interested enough suddenly (especially when all of the current 38k haven’t even renewed) or that there’d be the tourist/student/casual fan demand in our part of the world willing to stump up the financial outlay season tickets now cost. Maybe different if we were fully established after years in this division and consistently doing well.

I’d say so mate. I think a lot on the list who want one will get something sorted.
I have no information to back this up at all mind.

As an example, I’ve been happy doing 8-10 games a season for the last 20 years or so. I have a concern that if we continue our progress it’s going to get to the point where I am struggling to get a ticket, now we are threatening to be good, ie Europe a possibility. For that reason I’ve placed myself on the waiting list.

I'm going there on Friday. I'll keep an eye for the two of you
There’s also a big difference from having your name on the list and actually parting with cold hard cash, I can imagine quite a few being invited to purchase and not go through with it.

I’m sure there’ll be many more like you mate. I just find 15,000 a hard figure to believe based on our attendance history, last recent Premier League crowds, the fact that while our League 1 and Championship crowds were great we weren’t packing the place out, the fact that at the last count thousands of current holders hadn’t renewed yet. It just seems on the high side.
