I have 2 season tickets but after a 3rd ticket so I can take both my sons with me - they rotate on one of the tickets depending on their commitments. I was going to wait until GA to try to get a 3rd ticket but looks like you've got to have had a previous purchase for all the 3 phases. Any idea if season ticket holders can also buy additional tickets in phase 2 or 3? I suspect not from the wording. If there's anyone who's a season ticket holder who's not going would be willing to let me buy a ticket via their account I'd be v grateful.
Are you on Facebook mate? On the SAFC fans page there was a link yesterday where people not using their season cards were going to share numbers etc, a great idea. ‘Sunderland AFC Black Cats news page’ is the page.
I'm not but my boys are so will get them onto it - much obliged. That's cracking that people are willing to do that for each other.
From SAFC.com - prioritisation rules for CheckaTrade Final: " PRIORITY TICKET SALE PERIODS - limit of one ticket per customer number Tickets will be sold in three priority periods, with 2018-19 season card holders being the first priority. Please read the information below carefully so that you understand when and how you can apply for your ticket. Priority 1, Friday 8th March - Monday 11th March 2018-19 SAFC season card holders (including 18, 12 and 8 game season card holders). There is a limit of one ticket per season card. All current season card holders are guaranteed a ticket, if they buy within this initial priority period. Priority 2, Tuesday 12th March Priority 2 is for supporters who have a recent home league ticket purchase history with the club (the previous two seasons, from 2017-18 onwards) and who have also bought a match ticket for SAFC v Walsall on Saturday 16th March. - Walsall match ticket must be purchased no later than 10am on Monday 11th March to meet the eligibility criteria. - SAFC International Members can also buy during this period. Priority 3, Wednesday 13th March Priority 3 is for any remaining supporters who have a recent league ticket purchase history with the club. TICKET PRICES Pricing categories at Wembley Stadium are split into five sections and there is also a concession rate for supporters aged 65 and over. Young supporters aged 16 and under are priced at £10 across all levels of the stadium and Young Adults, aged 17-21 receive a 25% discount from the Full Adult Price. Alongside this, a booking fee of £2.40 per ticket is applicable. A postage charge of £2.50 per order is also in place. We appreciate that these additional fees are higher than Sunderland AFC charges for games at the Stadium of Light, they are standard prices for Wembley however and we do not have the ability to change them. Cat 1 - £60 Adults, £30 Concession Cat 2 - £48 Adults, £24 Concession Cat 3 - £42 Adults, £21 Concession Cat 4 - £36 Adults, £18 Concession Cat 5 - £28 Adults, £14 Concession Cat 6 - £20 Adults, £10 Concession The price categories will be sold on a first come first served basis and are subject to availability." Booking and postal fees are a bit steep! Surprised there's no GA sale, but think they'll all go and there's always the option to have a further priority phase after 13th.
Not sure if this been already talked about... Sunderland have been handed 38,979 tickets for the clash, their opponents have received an allocation of 39,659. This left some supporters disappointed at the smaller number of tickets handed to the Black Cats - but there is a simple explanation as to why the Wearsiders have a smaller allocation. Sunderland will be situated on the east side of Wembley for the final, and this side of the stadium has approximately 500 fewer seats than the western half of the stadium. This is because there are additional executive seats in the east stand, meaning that there are simply less tickets available in that half of the stadium - hence Sunderland's slightly smaller allocation. However, owner Stewart Donald has confirmed that the Black Cats are attempting to increase the numbers of tickets available to their supporters. In a reply to a supporter on twitter, Donald said the club were 'trying' to seal a higher allocation. Sunderland can ask the EFL for more tickets and they will make the final decision on an allocation. Southampton were awarded the highest allocation in the competition's history when they faced Carlisle United in 2010 - the Saints taking 44,000 fans to Wembley,
Official capacity is 90k for football so there’s 10k tickets floating, less the 500 they say are corporate. No question is and Pompey would sell them. Be a scandal if seats go to waste.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who has a child (under 18) linked to their safc online account for buying tickets - my lad has a separate account number but it is not recognised when I try to register it on the new site or link it to my account number. Houston - we have a problem....
Regardless of the ins and outs does anyone know another club in the land who’d sell 39k for Walsall? (We all know there’s one more up the road but still impressive)
Just sat here queued up for tickets. Then it's **** shower shave for a day on the piss in Boro then I'm going to see Sleaford Mods in the evening. Today will be a good day Sent from my Moto G (5) using Tapatalk
