Did they actually lose fans to the North Sea or did they just end up in Norway

This post regularly does the rounds, and as much as I think American football is shit, this is just a bollocks stat/comparison. You get university matches there with crowds bigger than any stadium in England holds - this simply shows the capacities of two stadiums.

I wonder if the maccombs will finally agree that extending the SoL is not necessary after seeing that even in their greatest ever season they cant fill it with it's current capacity, even against elite teams like Liverpool? 

If they do extend it, it will be solely for the benefit of the NUFC game which seems to be the only game that is a sell out.

Just read something on Facebook that Speak Kristjaan Speakman has left their club.

 

Edit - So did Paully it seems! 

 

 

 

He’s basically been sidelined by the other one we brought in during the summer. The other one sorts out all the overseas dealings.

 

Apparently, Speakman’s only signing in the summer was Adingra - who hasn’t worked out.

 

Speakman has been great for us, but no point in keeping him on if we’re going to focus more on the overseas market.

Kinda goes against everything your fanbase stands for :/    Posters on RTG like RokerMakem or KeithTheRacist racially abusing black players,  celebrating putting up posters around the town and ground stating "Keep Sunderland White".   Best friends with that Racist that got banned this week.  Very audible racist abuse at Callum Wilson, and then the Burnley lad the other week.

bit like everybody in our fanbase celebrates stoning, and reporters being executed, because we are owned by PIF ?  Which is the option of us in Sunderland or RTG

So a couple of posters on a bonkers forum is everything our fanbase stands for?

 

Okay mate…

Your town does have a bit of a reputation when it comes to racism mind. The likes of Darren Bents mam and Olivier Bernard would testify to that along with the other examples given above. I was at that match where I've given the Bernard example and it's still the worst case of racism I've ever experienced at a football ground and I've been going since the 80s.

Ah yes, the halcyon days of hordes of them walking the streets to and from the ground singing "I'd rather be a P*ki than a Turk"

The entire England squad, every journalist AND 88% of the attendance staying overnight in Newcastle as well.
