Absolutely 100% agree. All of you have one for me too will you. Hoping to get the pub to show the match so I can watch it!!
Spoken to the landlord today and yes going to make sure it’s on so I’m driving to Barnsley early to make sure I catch it. Wondering who everyone will be shouting for down there.
Us of course can't see Yorkshire lads backing southern softies, hope it's worth you getting there early...enjoy.
Outside of Sunderland and Portsmouth, I doubt anybody gives a flying fook. There's even a section of both teams fans that don't seem particularly bothered about it.
I'm on the Megabus from Carmarthen and wore my Sunderland cap from the car park to the bus station ... ... three different people wished me luck and this is rugby country. London will be a great place to be over the next few days.
Just wanted to wish everyone going to London to have a great time and most importantly be safe. Want this to be a start of a great few weeks for us. 2 - 0 tomorrow. McGeady and Honeyman. Haway the lads!!!
On the train to Euston with the Mrs now, we're staying in Shepards Bush, are all the Sunderland fans drinking in Trafalga Square tonight?
Went fir a run this morning and there were a couple of geordies at the parkrun in Chester le street saying it’s a nothing cup etc. And taking the piss generally about it. Soon shut up when I asked what their last cup was I will be genuinely gutted if we don’t win tomorrow. I know how important the league is but winning a cup competition, for any fan, is a massive thing!!
Just going for the day mate. Would have loved to have spent the weekend there but for other reasons it wasnt poss this time.
