Saints Release More Seats For Stoke City Game
Saints have released more seats for sale to home supporters as the game heads towards a sell out against Stoke City on Saturday afternoon at St Mary's.
My earlier story today told of how there were less than 500 seats available for the visit of Stoke city tomorrow, however this has changed with Saints putting around about another 600 seats on sale in block 44.
These are seats that have not been taken up by Stoke City after initially taking this allocation and the segregation netting will be moved over into the middle of block 44 so that these seats can now be sold to Saints fans.
All in all it means that there are around 1,000 tickets in the general seating areas now available, but clearly the club are expecting most of these to go fairly quickly, hence the pro active work in contacting Stoke ascertaining there ticket sales and making the seats they don't need available to home supporters nice and early.
The message from the club is clear, if Stoke had taken the same number of tickets as Sunderland did, then the game would already been sold out in the general seating areas, they expected to sell the few remaining tickets originally on sale today and feel that the new seats available will go fairly fast as well, if you want to go to the game act earlier rather than later and risk disappointment..
