Sunderland Ticket Prices - Time to end the debate

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Logging in to NSC whilst working away from home and it seems that all I can see is thread after thread on Sunderland ticket prices. It could be a few people making a lot of noise - or maybe EVERYONE thinks the club has become a money grabbing machine.

Quick poll - which I hope will stop people making sweeping statements about the broader reaction to the prices.

Logging in to NSC whilst working away from home and it seems that all I can see is thread after thread on Sunderland ticket prices.

So you thought "I know...I'll make another thread about Sunderland ticket prices".

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

No - I thought I'd start a thread that would let us know definitively if the majority of people think there is an issue or if it is a few people bleating very vociferously.

 

[beorhthelm]

wasnt the Gillingham game the same price?

 

[Badger]

NSC in "multiple threads moaning about the same thing" shocker

 

[TottonSeagull]

I stand by my rant below as posted on one of the other 10 threads.

"Great another 'Sunderland Tickets are to much' thread, glad we had this as I don't think the other TEN threads and all the muppets who have posted their terminal whinging thoughts on 'Ask The Club' really got to the point!

The club should give away tickets free obviously, can't believe they would ask fans to pay 'NORMAL' prices for this game - cheek!

If you don't like it don't go, others will take your seats and FFS stop moaning and crying about paying champoinship/premier prices, you will need to get use to it.

Rant Over!"

 

[TottonSeagull]

Not having a go at this thread TRHK but just fed up with all the whingers on here!

 

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

As far as Im concerned its NORMAL price.

Gillingham was REDUCED from NORMAL price.

You mean the majority of people who come on NSC and can also be bothered to complete your poll. Hardly going to be conclusive is it?

 

[Titanic]

There isn't an option that expresses my view on the matter.

Which are likely to be those with a strong opinion on the subject so therefore this is likely to give a biased outcome (probably towards it being overpriced)

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Won't be conclusive but might be indicative perhaps?

Ruddy hell, anything for a moan from some people.

Ypu've never had it so good, we draw a glamour side in the Cup and the club, quite rightly, decide to charge the same price as a bog standard Championship game and people want to have a pop.

Some of you don't deserve the club the way it is at the moment.

Peterborough v Middlesbrough - adult ticket... behind the goal... £15

This sums things up for me!

Some people are never satisfied - if we gave the tickets away, and had less money for players - they would start whinging about that!

What he said.

I would EXPECT to pay more to watch us give Sunderland a run for their money. Its probably a better game for us than the Stoke FA Cup tie last season-we have a good chance to go through.

Isn't that terracing though?

 

[clippedgull]

Peterborough v Middlesbrough - adult ticket... behind the goal... £15

Will offer £10.

Peterborough v Middlesbrough - adult ticket... behind the goal... £15

As far as I am aware there is nothing stopping you (or I) taking that option.

Exeter v Liverpool prices

Atass (Devon Air Ambulance) Big Bank - Adult: £18, Concession: £13 and Under 18s: £6.

Flybe - Adult: £25, Concession: £19, Under 18s £15

Stagecoach Family Stand: Adult: £22, Concession: £16 and Under 18s: £7.

Scunny v Newcastle

Seating: Adult £19, Senior £12 & Junior £5

Standing: Adult £15, Senior £10 & Junior £5

There is no doubt we are paying a premium for the Sunderland fixture, but we are playing in a premium stadium too. I do think the club have got this wrong though. Perhaps if fans vote with their feet and the attendance is sub 10,000 then the club will have learnt that there is resistance at the proposed price structure?
