Exciting times

It seems odd to be disappointed, because a 25K league gate is fantastic given where we were a few years ago.

The pricing debate will rumble on, but I do think with some minor changes, especially around kids pricing, we're talking about a full house today and those 5000 empty seats are filled.

Still, we've come a long way and it's great to see.

We used to get 25k+ a couple of times a season and I can never remember there being such a scramble for tickets back then. It's odd.

Perhaps because the whole stadium was in use before SAG stepped in.

We used to get 26k - but only if the away end had 6k in it.

Theres been a tangible step forward in terms of attendances.

Agree. The home attendances are probably the highest they’ve been since the 70s

Sunderland. Great numbers but worst for noise in the country.

For such a massive club (their words not mine) their fans are really poor.
Probebly one of the worst in this league.

Atmosphere was poor today. Sunderland fans don't help by not giving it anything themselves. Performance also didn't help.

We play at a slower pace this year. Maybe that's it. You're right though, atmosphere was flat.

Why are you so against people having a different opinion. Are you not allowed to say the atmosphere was poor compared to usual?

Entertainment = 6/10
Atmosphere = 5/10
Facilities and Arena = 4/10
Overall value at £74 for two tickets 4/10
Not gonna lie, it has to get better than that for people to come back and pay that price.

I think you’re right in your final comment. But the 0-0 was one of the better ones I’ve seen. Both teams lacked in finishing.

Just to clarify I’m a fanatic of many years , I’ll be back , but….at that price some won’t, it’s too much for one game.
oh and by facilities I really just meant that the men’s toilets in some areas are just overwhelmed …..when I was busting to get in

Agreed, I'm glad it didn't cost me £74, I wouldn't of been too happy if it did.

Home fans are being asked to pay to much as well, more than double ST price at £37.
scrap the category system and £30 every game for home & away support, plenty I reckon.

The atmosphere was good considering there were no goals. We also build slower from the back this season and can’t see us playing on the counter which ramps it up.

I bet our atmosphere today was still better than anyone else’s in the league.

At home especially, it goes up 2 gears when/if we score.

Away from home it's more so getting behind the lads from kick off
