Match to match tickets are gonna be like gold dust aren’t they

 

I was hoping to come up for the first match and I've never struggled to get tickets to a sunderland home game but I think this time I might

 

Are you allowed to pay using a payment plan? Entered my card details but the verification doesn't have seemed to have worked

 

Sorted!

 

glad your sorted

 

Helps if you actually take your time doing it properly!!!

 

Think we will pretty much have maxed our ST allocation this season, the jump in price is a bit of a tough one, believe that we still offer one of the lowest in the premier league though

As long as they continue split into 6 DD the £100 will be easier to swallow for the early birds next year, barring any further increases next year

Talking to a Leicester fan and his is split monthly - Wonder if its something we have or will consider doing

 

yes hopefully keep that next year

 

Fully expected. Still think they’re cheap

 

I've always wondered why clubs don't offer season tickets on a subscription model with a rolling 12 month contract that renews every July. You basically get your season ticket cost spread over 12 months and it automatically gets renewed unless you cancel.

Would make it loads more affordable as lets say the ticket is £600, that's £50 a month rather than lump sums.

Obviously the club could / would still offer the standard "pay up front" option to those who prefer it rather than have monthly outlay.

 

I honestly don’t think those prices are bad, I’m sure there’s still championship teams who charge more, it’s a canny hike in prices but overall not too bad for premier league football

 

yeah compared to rest in premier league long as they keep 6 DD payments next year i hopefully be ok

 

Good value with the DD option.

 

Assuming we stay up this season, would we be looking at a 10% increase on those prices for the following season?

 

My mate tried to get 3 together but it doesn't allow you, can only buy one at a time... as he held one, one of the other three went... he's not happy

 

Since they've confirmed over 30,000 already renewed I wonder how many season tickets we'll actually sell. They obviously do anticipate massive demand or they wouldn't have stuck £100 on most of the prices. Is getting a shade above 40,000 dreamland? Not that it greatly matters tbh

 

Cash flow for the club will be a big thing. Also I'd imagine there would be concerns that if things went downhill on the pitch people would just stop paying lol.

 

Ah yeh I think the latter might be the main barrier to doing this. The cost (and optics) of having to chase supporters for payments

 

You could buy more than one at a time you just needed to assign it to an account at checkout, granted there was limited seats together, helped a lad at work get some theyve ended up having to get the £690 tickets as they were looking to get 6 close by to eachother

 

Big jump that like.

The concern for me is that if you were early bird this year the increase to next year is going to looking at 25/30%.
