No direct trains from Teesside until 11am in the morning. All trains before that have bus replacement from Hartlepool and Seaham. Another crap offering from Northern on a #SAFC matchday Hopefully the first direct train from Teesside will be 4 carriages @grahamemorris

The issue with doing well again is you get all sorts climbing out the woodwork who weren’t arsed about away games in the championship, let alone league one, now demanding the right to do Liverpool, Arsenal and AC Milan away. If you’d put the effort in you’d have the points. Easy.

1) Once you have got tickets to an away game their is a period where you cannot enter again (2-3 away games). Meaning fans lower in points get more chance to go to away games to build more points, this would also mean you don't just buy each away ticket you have to be selective

Instead of drinking in the stands can we first have a conversation about football fans being allowed to drink on transport. Traveling by coach, absolutely no alcohol. Traveling by train, they stop selling alcohol as soon as football step on board

The difference is O’nien has started 6 premier league games and has cost us goals in 3 of those. He’s an accident waiting to happen and way out of his depth

Loyal supporters can’t even pass there tickets on to their pals without the risk of getting banned but the club can happily have a reselling official partner. Laughable #safc

Time for a new fans group. Ones who actually go to games regardless of the level. The supporters collective for PL fans only #safc

You pay all the money on tickets, travel etc to build your loyalty points up for years just to be turfed of an away ticket by someone who doesn’t bother putting the miles in. No bother 👍 @SunderlandAFC

He’ll forever be a #SAFC cult hero and his chant will be sang long after he’s gone. €24.2m profit for our third choice striker after 756 Premier League minutes is nothing but phenomenal business however. Go well, Big Man 🤝
🚨🔴⚫️ Eliezer Mayenda joins Rennes from Sunderland at €25m total package fee. Deal done and here we go.

The Granit Xhaka transfer has annoyed me more than any other I think. He’s genuinely still a top class player and if he moved on to a bigger club due to location, wages etc Thats fine - it happens. But… it’s the utter bullshit he’s fed the fans. Wanting to play for a working class club, with working class fans, to join a commercialised heap of shit team in the biggest commercialised heap of shit city. Not just a kick in the teeth for the fans, but the city too. Meaningless words. The hate watch is going to be insane like 😂

I know Celtic fans won’t agree but, as dramatic as today has been, that’s an awful outcome for Scottish football. If Celtic can cycle through three managers, struggle for most of the season, yet win the title anyway, what does it say about the state of the game up there?

Newcastle now employ 3 (three) of Sunderland’s League 1 failures in senior positions. It wasn’t supposed to be like this was it?

But if you're one of those 1 in 10 who wants to move from an extremely expensive hospitality season ticket to a normal one... Sorry, you're fucked.
Sunderland’s rise this season has been one of the standout stories in football. A club that has spent the last decade fighting its way up, is now flying in its first season back in the Premier League. Tom Burwell, interim CEO, has seen this up close as a board member, but is now stepping up with a club that is building a model that can actually sustain their place in the top flight. Because @SunderlandAFC isn’t a typical football club… 1 in 10 people in the city holds a season ticket. And business decisions aren’t just financial, they’re cultural. So now comes the hardest part. Turning a local, community-driven club into a global Premier League business without losing what made it special in the first place. 🗣️ “ The relentless obsession for performance on & off the field has to be our driver” That shift changes everything: - How you grow revenue - How you build a fanbase - How you approach sponsorship - How you think about media and storytelling But more importantly, how do you build a modern football club.
