You spend your time on here calling Sunderland fans, what do you expect?
Im a wanker eh? Perhaps, but you didn't say that when I was there. You said nothing.

You know what No youre not a wanker and Im sorry for putting that

What did I expect? People to respond fair enough but to go on about "social awkardness or autism. Haway man

I was just minding my own business when you come up to me

Now for the love of god. Move on from all this.

And people are minding there own business when you are slagging them off on here.
I apologised IN REAL LIFE, I retract that.
You apologise in real life to those you slag off on here. I bet you wont.

I don't go up to individuals on here or in real life.

I dont go onto forums claming people have a learning difficulty.

You dedicated a thread to myself to try and be clever and it backfired.

How you about you we dont talk on here or on the very off chance in real life.

Will still be one of the cheapest tickets in the league. Much cheaper than the mags and pretty much in line with Middlesbrough who don't know what league they'll be in next season if we're comparing closer to home.

Fact is with FFP/PSR the club need to get the maximum revenue possible from every different source.

Thing is you falsely claim I have "anomymity" when clearly they have an idea of who I am when its the other way round and the vast majority of time when I havent got a clue who they are.

Over and out.
 
Price wouldn’t be my motivation for not renewing but my general enjoyment of football has diminished over the past few years. The bairn loves going so whilst that’s the case I’ll continue to go, the highs of winning aren’t the same as they used to be and I’m generally unaffected when we get beat.

I think football is just like that across the board at the moment.

I’m still unsure, money is tight at the moment and midweek games are a chore with work.

I worked on 3 shifts for 12 years and didnt mis a home game through swapping shifts. Meant me working loads of 16 hour shifts and going into work straight after the game. I must have been even thicket than I am now.

Still have my season ticket for 1991-92 in the Clock Stand at Roker Park, £185. Apparantely equivelant to £400/£430 today according to Google.

That takes me back, in all the years I had one there was only one game where the voucher want there, and I assume it was because I had ripped out 2 vouchers at the previous match.

I have had the same seat next to @herra soul mob since the SOL opened, and I think a season ticket is still good value. The football and the air of neglect in League 1 made it difficult to renew, so where we are now a renewal is a no brainer. It will be a fine line going forward between maximising revenue and pricing people out.

I'm not convinced. Tours are expensive. They're always been expensive, and often got out of control depending on the whims of the artist, but in today's world they're really expensive. Minimum wage, health & safety, fuel & logistics, venues, promotion. It all costs an absolute fortune, and is no longer subsidised by record sales. It used to be tours would drive records sales and that's where the money was. Now it's the other way 'round.


As for football, it was £60 for a season ticket at Roker Park in 1980, or £4.50 for a seated match ticket. That's the equivalent of £335 or £25 these days. I wouldn't call that an eye watering difference, all things considered. Attending a football match today is an all round better product.

Rancid. The Chelsea game was a disgrace really.

Less than 27,000 for the 5th Round of the Cup against Arsenal two seasons prior was shocking really.

Pretty much my point, my ST next season is double that.

The thing is, acts have to make money somehow; people simply aren't buying music in the quantities they once did, because of streaming services so concerts and merchandise is where it's at.

I just can’t justify live sport and gigs, and gigs are always coming 2nd in that race.

It was £375 in the East stand U8 for me as I've still got my 1999/2000 ST book and a mint ASICS Lambton's shirt. Inflation based it would be £725 now but it's £660.



I'll never forget seeing this beauty from December that season as I was looking straight across the pitch at it 😎
