Mr Popodopolous Posted February 16, 2023 Report Share Posted February 16, 2023 (edited) Vapes were also off-limit earlier in season, dunno if that still holds. Edited February 16, 2023 by Mr Popodopolous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vapes and Mobile Phone chargers. Former I get, but the latter - you could have people travelling on a 12 hour round trip and it’s not beyond the realms of possibility they might need to keep their phones charged up. I’m assuming it’s so they can’t be used as missiles but I’m not aware of a mass problem with people chucking phone chargers at football grounds… Huawei the lads indeed. 1 23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really annoyed me about the power bank situation. I’m travelling on the train and ideally wanted to take my one for emergency’s. Not even sure if to take my AirPods in case they get confiscated.

Loosey Boy Posted February 16, 2023 Report Share Posted February 16, 2023 (edited) Anyone know how many tickets we’ve sold now? Looking forward to it……my first trip to Stadium of Light Edited February 16, 2023 by Loosey Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted February 16, 2023 Report Share Posted February 16, 2023 Sunderland fan has commented on our status on FB, reckons we'll comply with these rules no problem. Not thst I'm advocating wilful disobedience but could it be interesting at the turnstiles or will it be just another layer of bureaucracy that we all go along with..

There's bound to be people that turn up unaware about the coin issue I'm intrigued how they check? If coins are loose in your pocket they would feel then on a body search, but surely they don't ask men to open wallets and women to open purses etc? I'm sure I'll be corrected but I thought Sunderland said that it was a decision from the visiting club where the collected money went? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davefevs Posted February 16, 2023 Report Share Posted February 16, 2023 I’m guessing Sunderland don’t provide lockers for people to put stuff in? Travel all the way to Sunderland on the train or non-club coach, surely you can’t be expected to travel without certain stuff. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityexile Posted February 17, 2023 Report Share Posted February 17, 2023 Most likely the biggest crowd we will play in front of this season, bar something surprising. Looks like it will be pushing 40k, bar a couple of thousand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted February 17, 2023 Report Share Posted February 17, 2023 Anyone know if my daughter will be able to take her iPad in, or a bag with some colouring and pens? For home games she can usually sit through the first half but then gets bored so I take these items in to help ease the 2nd half boredom. I don’t want to drive 6 hours and find they want to confiscate her iPad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted March 5, 2023 Report Share Posted March 5, 2023 (edited) Interesting development on this general policy albeit not City specific. Easier to copy a thread rather than an individual post. That Stoke fan is in the FSA. Malcolm Clarke to be exact.

Mr Popodopolous Posted March 7, 2023 Report Share Posted March 7, 2023 Forget my FFP fluff on another thread, does look lkke Malcolm Clarke (FSA guy and Stoke fan) is doubling down qnd challenging Sunderland policy on away fans. https://www.stokesentinel.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/sunderland-stoke-city-coins-police IFO seem to be the body that he is lodging a complaint with. Interesting to read experiences of fans of our club with this policy, indeed those of other clubs too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
