Also gets the next generation hooked as well, same with the schools. The club is missing a trick if not doing things like that. A cheap school ticket, get them hooked, a season card the year after or after that. The bairns school get them every so often, 2 for £20. I'll wait take the offer up in a couple of years for the lad, but that'll lead to a Sunderland scarf/strip/coat. It's actually good business sense and the club looking after the local community and making it as accessible as possible and for people to go. Never understood the criticism of it one bit. They're doing a good thing here and should be credited for it if anything. People will look for anything to have a twist and moan about the club.People can't help themselves.
All we hear is how the price of going to football is to high for the average fan and clubs don't care about the supporters. But when the club gives away free tickets or deals on them, the same people give out.
The club shop was doing a deal. If you spend £50 you got 2 free tickets. My two kids have been begging me to bring them to a match. So I decided to bring them for their birthday. For £100 I got 2 full kits and 4 tickets. That's bloody brilliant.
