EFL statement: Sunderland Checkatrade Trophy tie
It has been determined that Newcastle United supporters will be allocated 2,800 tickets for their upcoming Checkatrade Trophy round three tie with Sunderland.
The EFL reviewed written representations made by Northumbria Police and other key stakeholders in relation to supporter safety following a request from Newcastle United for an increased provision, in line with competition rules, and a recommendation was made to maintain an allocation of 2,800, which is consistent with the club's previous visits to the Stadium of Light.
The EFL would like to thank Newcastle United for respecting the recommendation.
