A limited number of spaces remain for the Capital One Cup final which is to be screened throughout the stadium’s suites and bars, with fans being urged to book quickly to avoid missing out on enjoying the match with their fellow supporters.

Over 3,000 fans have already booked their place at the stadium to cheer on the lads as they gun for glory against Manchester City on Sunday.

Gary Hutchinson, SAFC's commercial director: “There has been a phenomenal demand from fans and as such we will be operating the stadium’s hospitality suites as if it was a normal matchday.

"This will provide fans that were unable to secure a ticket for Wembley a fantastic alternative.”

Entry to Black Cats Bar is £8pp, which includes a complimentary drink on arrival followed by a fork buffet lunch.

Doors will open from 10am on the morning of the game, which kicks off at 2pm. Drinks promotions and betting facilities will be available and matchday programmes are on sale priced at £7.

Fans can reserve their place by calling 0871 911 1555 or by emailing hospitality@safc.com.
