# Sunderland: Fans angered by club’s stance on season tickets

**Many Sunderland fans have reacted to a latest report from the club over the outcome of season tickets from 2019/20.**

With the League One campaign remaining at a standstill, having been halted in March due to the coronavirus pandemic, a decision has [yet to be made](https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/everything-know-proposed-championship-return-18341014) on how the current season will come to a conclusion.

Sunderland, whose woes of the last few seasons have been documented via Netflix series *Sunderland Til I Die*, are currently [on course to miss out](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/league-one/table) on promotion to the Championship, just one year after losing the play-off final to Charlton Athletic at Wembley.

Whilst the season could yet be finished on the pitch, [claims](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/sportsnews/article-8355699/Plan-save-EFL-Clubs-warned-play-accept-points-game-play-offs-happen.html) have been made over the potential of a points-per-game system, meaning a failure to gain promotion via either route could have drastic consequences at the Stadium of Light, with [owner Stewart Donald seemingly still keen to sell the Wearside club.](https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/stewart-donald-gives-sunderland-takeover-18068238)

Fans of the club who are season ticket holders could also miss a number of games next season with football being played behind closed doors for the foreseeable future. The Black Cats have now responded to those supporters, [answering a number of pressing questions via a Q&A session.](https://www.safc.com/news/ticket-news/2020/june/season-card-qa)

Reacting a tweet which shared answers to a number of important questions, these Sunderland fans responded…

> I’ll be cancelling. Absolutely nonsense to renew on those terms. I’ll get a streaming pass for half the price of a season ticket and that will get me all games. You want ST to pay £300+ for home streams and then additional costs for the aways [#DonaldOut](https://twitter.com/hashtag/DonaldOut?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) [#FPPIn](https://twitter.com/hashtag/FPPIn?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw)

> We could end up paying our full season ticket cost to just watch a poor quality stream at home? That cost doesn’t seem at all fair.

> This is an absolute joke clearly showing you cudnt care less about the fans and a football club is nothing without fans so this is a huge mistake by the club
