Unforgivable what they did to the bar, all about money for the owners, letting 6000 mags attend in the first place was mental. Got me ticket for the home end and looking forward to an eventful day out. I could be wrong but would newcastle not be entitled to 6000 tickets due to minimum allowances for away fans in FA cup based on stadium capacity?

AndrewB Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I fell foul of the away bar at Sunderland once. On the way in to the ground, a copper asked how many pints I’d had and told me not to have any more. 44 minutes later, I headed for a pre-HT beat the crowds pee. On my way back to my seat, the shutters rolled up, basically calling “buy me.” Stood there with my pint and felt a tap on the shoulder. Same copper - “what did I say?” Me - “Sorry, oshifer” or some such nonsense. I think I was lucky to get let off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey1874 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Just for those who don't follow, Jack Clarke of Sunderland is a very exciting player. Ex Leeds and Tottenham (loans). Can rip a defence. And they also have Jude Bellingham's younger brother Jobe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gundermann Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I find Sunderland a fairy ridiculous team - those antics with the away bar ffs... - that said, I mind when they played Hibs in a friendly a few years ago and Hibs were crowing about their "11th Man" supporters group. Sunderland weren't impressed and said something along the likes of "There were barely 11 people there". 😄 Would like them to get one over on the evil House of Saud's Newcastle Utd though.

He, Clarke, was actually a Leeds player and signed by Spurs before being loaned straight back to Leeds, and a few other clubs eventually moving to Sunderland on permanent contract. A bit of an odd one as Spurs put a lot of time and money into signing him and had high hopes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fort Vallance Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Watching the Newcastle fans doing a bit of a twirly. Couldn't help noticing a lot of the scarves have got the sponsor name on them. Apart from the fact they're obviously new scarves and not traditional/ handed down, it's taking branding too far. Even Geordies can be bought.
