Optimistic Nut Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 I'm sure he's not the only one where Tino's disgusting corner flag waving antics meant enough was enough. Must have been many more at the time who thought fuck this last 8 of the UEFA Cup and competing at the top of the table shite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bhoywhonder Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 First timer , old timer , and definitely not a mackem , I went to my first match at St.James's for 20 years , my last one vs. Metz , my latest vs. Wolves . So I don't regard myself a supporter any more , merely a fan . Revisiting the stadium just served to reinforce the reasons I stopped going . I fell out of love with the match day experience when the whole thing became so sanitised and unspontanious . I fell out of love with the game . By pure chance my work necessitated my being at the Stadium of Light , match vs. Palace , the very next week. And this is the crux of my post .I found the lacklustre atmosphere at St. James's so inferior to the passion displayed by the mackems on the day . Their fans did display spontaneous and widespread vocal support for their team , something sadly lacking the week before at St. James's . Now admittedly it was just a one game comparison , but the contrast was alarming . And perhaps in part due to the ,shall I say , more basic and less cranially evolved species inhabiting the Wearside stadium . Nevertheless , my recent Sunderland experience was ,unfortunately , much more akin to the match day experience of old . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest reefatoon Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 It will go down in Mackem folklore now that the hideous atmosphere at the Metz game put thousands of fans off ever going back to watch a match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sima Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Maybe it was because Tino used to play with his shirt untucked and that didn't sit well with the well-dressed folk of Sunderland? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mickthemagpie Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 I wish he would clarify if he is referring to the pre Palace fight back atmosphere or the post Palace fightback atmosphere. I'm sure there was a difference. . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all seriousness the atmosphere v Wolves was terrible but if you'd bothered to go to the next home game against Norwich you would have had the complete opposite experience. I've been to the SoS on corporate jollies in the past through work and their atmosphere is worse than ours. I was there last season when they played Aston Villa and the atmosphere was totally non existent apart from the 1500 Villa fans who made the trip. The time before that was the previous season against Everton and again if not for the 3000 Scousers there it would have been dead. Even against us they make no noise at all until they take the lead. http://talksport.com/football/loudest-fans-premier-league-revealed-150805161557?p=0 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkeye Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Watching MoTD on Sunday morning as I usually do on any weekend. When Van Arnholt scored that rather lucky equalizer - off he went with an exaggerated shisha pipe smoking celebration, not quite in the same vein as Robbie Fowler snorting up the white lines but, surely worthy of a season long suspension, possibly a prison sentence??

YNGLEGIONNAIRE Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Aye , born a mackem I can't deny it . And I followed Newcastle religiously for 40+ years , first team , reserves and anybody remember the "N"s?... Probably not , but it was the youth team whom I also spent time watching. So draw your own conclusions as to where my loyalties lie . I simply made an observation about the match day experiences I encountered at these recent games and didn't suggest this was in any way the status quo . I don't have any ulterior motives , or designs for Internet warriorship for the post..... Just an observation , but dissect and lambaste if that's your thing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
