Season ticket waiting list

Hetty

Any idea what the plans is?

Waiting list sales will commence from 5pm Monday 20 April.

When the waiting list sales begin, supporters who were already on the waiting list prior to 23 February will receive priority access to available seats, with a 48-hour exclusive window before sales open to supporters who join the waiting list from 23 February 2026.

Thought it was from Saturday or Sunday.

Also, the bit I was wondering about using what order are the email s sent to those on thel list when there are hundreds?

So do they email everyone in one go and then it's a scramble as per the ticketing Tuesday madness?

Or. For example does person 1on the list get access before person 300 etc,?

If that makes sense
Also, is there anyone knowledge if how many on the old list?

We know 10k on the total list.

I can't remember when this years waiting list started, around 2 weeks before 23rd February i think

They'll send a link to all of those i guess or to how many season tickets are left for a 48 hour window in order of them joining

They may all go in that window

Hopefully some info about the procedure way before next monday

The email says applicants will be contacted "in chronological order".


I reckon a few will be on more than once, so the list might shorten quite quickly as people secure their season ticket and all their other applications become void.

when will you know what list you are on ?

 

[Hetty]

when will you know what list you are on ?

When did you join the list, you should have a number?

 

[richest]

I only found out my number by calling the ticket office. I registered a few weeks before the Coventry game and I am 572 573 for partner

 

[percy]

Ok

Thanks. Im 572 and 573

You from Boro?

 

[richest]

Yes there's no number on the waiting list confirmation email

Just spoke to ticket office and the lass (who didn’t seem 100% sure in fairness) believes everyone registered before that end of Feb date will be able to purchase from 5pm on Sat (not in chronological order, importantly). So if anyone is in my position and trying to buy for a less tech-savvy relative I’d suggest keeping an eye on their email and being logged into SAFC Tickets just before 5 in time for it opening.

I signed up to the waiting list on 23rd Feb so I reckon I've got nee chance, email doesn't tell me what number I am in any sort of list either like, but will wait and see

How could you register for the waiting list before the Coventry game? Season tickets were freely available well after that.

 

[richest]

Not sure but I think I did

I know.

I ll say again, I found out by calling the office. Half hour wait etc. And I was given it.

Season tickets were on general sale after promotion was secured.

Search for emails for waiting list and Sunderland and you'll see when you actually signed up.

Ok
So I now have the correct info, not what i thought.

I am no 573 on the list going back to July last year after the Coventry game, and my better half is no. 1348, 21st Feb this year.

That's all the info they know, the T O have no idea of how the emails will be sent out in terms of batches etc.
Therefore I may get an email offer first, but possibly not the second offer. That might or might not come, in which case we will not have 2 seats together. Which would be no good, and I might as well just continue to buy if I can on thicketing Tuesdays.
