Went to my mate's wedding reception last night, at the Roker Hotel on the seafront.

 

"The Don" is staying there.  :lol: Presented my mate and his wife with two shirts with "Just Married" on the back.

 

Tbf to him, he gave all the Sunderland fans there plenty of attention and chatted to them all, but he does seem like a loose cannon.

Won 6 0 today

 

Probably think they're going to piss the league now.

 

Aye, even though the mantra was ‘results don’t matter in friendlies’ when they wilted against Darlo.

Log on to the N-O forum.

Check the transfer thread in the vague hope we might be going to spend some money, get pissed off.

Move to the Mike Ashley thread because I'm pissed off, get more pissed off.

Come to this thread to cheer myself up a bit.

Leave.

Repeat.

Had to share a lift for 7 floors with a woman who was dressed in their club shirt holding two of their carrier bags. Asked if she was looking forward to the new season. She replied genuinely “oh yes we’ve got our new seats installed now”.

 

(Insert James Milner emoji)

Did they just use seats from the upper bowl which will be redundant for the forseable future?

 

They’ve thought a bit longer term this time and went for white I think.

Was having a conversation with a ST holder at the SOL on Friday night and they were trying to claim that us finishing 10th to 17th would be seen as a disaster. Reckons that their manager won't last til Christmas if they aren't looking like running away with the league as well.

 

Strange bunch.

No matter how bad things are, and how far down the list of strikers Rafa is...surely things will never, ever be as bad as this...

 

Just in the strikers department we've lost out on Kamberi, Taylor, Eisa and Wyke could be next. We'll probably get the 5-6th option to lead the line.

Lying Mag Northumbria Police?

600 officers and a half-empty stadium: How police worked at Newcastle United and Sunderland games

Figures showing the most heavily police games of last season - as well as the average attendances - have been revealed

The most heavily policed football match in the Championship last season was the Wear-Tees derby.

 

Northumbria Police put on a show of strength when Middlesbrough travelled to the Stadium of Light to take on Sunderland AFC in February.

 

 

In total there were 587 cops assigned to the clash, a ratio of one police officer for every 50 fans in attendance.

 

And this level of police protection cost Sunderland AFC £55,413, figures from the BBC Shared Data Unit show.

 

Despite the huge police presence, the Stadium of Light was still almost half empty, with 40.7% of seats unfilled.

 

In the Premier League, the most heavily policed Newcastle United home game during the 2017/18 season was the Everton match on December 13.

 

Figures show there were 62 officers in attendance at that game, which in a packed out St James’ Park where more than 99% of seats were filled meant there was one police officer for every 858 fans.

 

Chief Superintendent Sarah Pitt, of Northumbria Police, said the figures were “quite misleading” as different forces allocate policing differently across the country.

 

She said: “Our overriding priority is to ensure the safety of the public, and decisions over policing levels at football matches are made based on a number of different factors to achieve that aim.

 

“With regard to the particular fixture of Sunderland versus Middlesbrough, this is a local derby which has historically resulted in the need for increased numbers of officers.

 

“However, the policing footprint at this fixture has reduced in recent years as a result of proactive work undertaken with both sets of supporters.

 

“We have already praised fans in the North East for their excellent behaviour over the course of last season.

 

“Supporters in this region are among the most knowledgeable and passionate in the world, and we look forward to building on our healthy relationship during the upcoming 2018/19 campaign.”

 

Newcastle United

Heaviest policed match: Newcastle United vs Everton, December 13 2017, 62 officers, followed by Newcastle United vs Manchester United, February 11 2018, 61 officers.

 

Average charge to football club for policing: £7,787 per match.

 

Lowest attendance: Newcastle United vs Burnley, January 31 2018, 4.3% of seats empty.

 

Highest attendance: Newcastle United vs Liverpool/Manchester United/Manchester City/West Bromwich Albion/Chelsea, all 0.2% of seats empty.

 

Sunderland AFC

Heaviest policed match: Sunderland vs Middlesbrough, February 24 2018, 587 officers.

 

Average charge to football club for policing: £13,374 per match.

Highest attendance: Sunderland vs Leeds United, August 19, 36.3% of seats empty.

Quick, take that first 'e' out of Beardsley before someone has a funny turn.

 

That 11 as a best ever ( though I'd guess it's someone's best that they've seen no Shackleton etc) is laughable.
