Screening at Stadium for Trophy semi

Sunderland AFC have confirmed that they will be hosting a screening of the club’s Checkatrade Trophy semifinal against Bristol Rovers – with former players in attendance.

The Black Cats are just one win away from Wembley, with the Gas the only thing standing between the club and a date at the home of football.

Sunderland were handed an allocation of over 1.900 for the trip to the South West but, with the fixture falling in midweek, they have moved to offer supporters the chance to watch the tie via a beam-back at the Stadium of Light.

Tickets are on sale now priced at £10 per person to include a complimentary bottle of beer and a hot meal.

Should Sunderland be successful against Rovers, they will face Portsmouth in the Checkatrade Trophy final on Sunday, March 31.
