    I'll be honest mate, I've just took the decision not to renew mine for next season. It's got nothing to do with the way we've played this season, or even the previous god knows how many seasons TBH. It's purely financial mate.

    As most will know on here, I work overseas, I'm away for roughly 6 1/2 months of the year so will only ever get to see just under half the home games in a season at best, chuck in international friendlies and other weeks where we're not playing and that number drops even more. This season I've seen 5 home games so far, I might be lucky and catch another 2 so for that reason alone I've decided not to renew. I'll still go to every match I am home for, no question there, but I will pay on the day rather than shell out **** loads of cash just to be wasted.

    You should have been on stub hub fella, you'd recover some of your cost and a fan can get a slightly cheaper ticket. I would have made made a point of buying your tickets when I was going and would have paid face value. To help a fellow forum fella and all. Got my Everton ticket sorted now but can you make the last two home games or are you grafting fella?

    Good idea mate but I have two tickets, mine and my sons, usually when I'm away he takes one of his mates but cos we've been playing crap and work commitments for him also, he can't guarantee he can get the games next season.
    As for last 2 games? I honestly don't know Bri, that's one of the reasons I'm letting them go, I just can't plan ahead at the minute, my rota changes all the time.

    The tickets do get used and there's rarely a game that my seats aren't filled, just not by me :(

    I make atmosphere & I boo the team to. I pay my money so I can do anything I want.

    I just think it's funny how fans like you have ago at other sunderland fans for not making a atmosphere when you don't go yourself.

    If you had a ****ing clue most of the players we got now don't give a **** about Sunderland. you will see that in the next 8 games.

    I pay so I can do what a want & thats the way I look at it.

    Well Danny Graham didn't score more premiership goals tho? proved right again.

    Cabral was class in pre-season & was class against Fulham so you can't blame me for PDC falling out with him.


    Keep on digging pal.
