I ask this as somebody who doesn’t have a clue about him. He’s a Newcastle fan, will watch games when he can but he’s not obsessive about football. Music is his obsession. And Star Wars. The makems have taken issue that he’s not a die hard supporter who goes home & away. And they also claim North Shields isn’t Newcastle so he’s latched onto a club that isn’t his local one.

Aye, pisses me off. One of my mackem mates says this, yet he’s Washington born & bred and supports them. It’s a fucking similar distance from his to the SOL as it is for me to SJP. Honestly man, they say people from Gateshead or Byker are not from Newcastle, even saying the airport isn’t in Newcastle, yet expect everyone in Spennymoor to be a season ticket holder for them. Fucking hell man lads, Spennymoor is closer to Barnard Castle than it is to Sunderland. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

et tu brute Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 They try and use every excuse to try and justify not getting the crowds we do. There is only 14 miles between the two clubs and yet you still get the daft fuckers spouting shite like this: Newcastle have a huge catchment area from Berwick to North Yorkshire and west to Carlisle. We are right in the middle of it . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 This is going to be controversial, but the thing is, Sunderland isn’t really, and should never have been classed as a city or large town that has it’s own council etc. Sunderland in reality is the same to Durham as what South Shields is to Newcastle. A large town down stream from the river that makes up the conurbation area. I don’t know where it went wrong and where it got separated, but Durham was the major and authoritative area of Wearside. It should have been Durham who had the professional football team, and Durham should have always maintained the authority of the area and the catchment area should have stayed as being centred around Durham. Now you have a town sized area trying to make up its own population centre and being its own city etc. It’s a bit like if South Shields started taking the likes of Jarrow and Hebburn, and calling them South Shields suburbs. This is why Sunderland struggles to keep a large attachments area. Places like Washington are equally as close to Tyneside as they are to Sunderland, Boldon etc are Tyneside but house Sunderland’s dog racing track, golfing range, and their BMW car shop. You have places Spennymoor which they try to claim as their own, which is closer to Durham & Darlington. Rainton, which is Sunderland council controlled is pretty much a part of Chester-Le-Street, which is Durham, and that alongside places like Hetton and Houghton actually all have Durham postcodes. Durham should have been the kept as the major city of Wearside, and if it was then maybe in every way possible, it would have been a big rival to Newcastle for being the dominant city and de facto capitol of the North East.

RS Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 Sunderland isn’t a “real” city.

I didn’t mention shape of the stands You can choose to believe whatever you like. SJP is a pain to put a gig on for various reasons which amount to further costs when compared to other similar venues, which is why it rarely happens.

We should knock down leazes terrace OR move it brick by brick so we can find space for more parking trucks.
