    You just think...it’s just been lost in translation..it’s been misquoted..it’s a cultural thing..poor PR....yardee yardee...enough rope given out..!

    The only way with these despicable people is to cut off all revenue streams available even if it means no fans....There is just no connection whatsoever with this community/fans despite the pathetic attempt on the rare occasions to allegedly put out an olive branch.

    I’m sure all long serving fans have clung to the hope that maybe just maybe that relationships will improve...so like many on her..Just F..Off and remove your stain from our club..

    Not losing face is paramount - sadly.

    You ****ing utter ****s. You absolute despicable bastard.

    RH is the only way my 89yr old father in law can listen to the club he loves. I wouldn't piss on the ****ers if they was on fire.

    Sorry for the bad language but I'm fuming about this.

    Whatever the motives of the execrable Allams I seem to be a lonely voice welcoming the fact that "Fatty Pieman" and his incomprehensible illiterate sidekick have finally beifen consigned to the dustbin of broadcasting history.

    After years of enduring the awful duo I was delighted when we actually could listen to intelligent and intelligible "Football" commentary from Brian Hughes and insightful guests on Viking. Sadly that endured but a short time and we returned to broadcasting mediocrity on Humberside. At which point I switched off.

    if it is true that Brian and Viking are returning to the air waves I for one will be delighted. No more ramblings about pies, colors of socks and
    boots, nights on the town, and whatever took the Fat Ones and the Village Idiots fancy. BACK TO FOOTBALL.

    Are they really so vindictive and petulant, or are they just so incompetent as to piss off yet more followers of the club. Or both.
    Vindictive? Yes, most certainly they are at every opportunity! Incompetent? Yes, they have regularly shown that they are. So yes I would say it is both but mainly vindictive.

    They really are despicable. Agreed!

    You're very much in the minority, Hughes was good, but otherwise the Viking commentaries were appalling and were universally hated.

    It's not going back on there anyway, they're now part of Hits Radio Network and broadcast from Sheffield.

    It's been done to make paying £10 for a stream the only way to follow the game, it's a stupid decision made by a stupid man.

    This. Discrimination of those who aren’t tech savvy, don’t have internet, mainly I imagine the older people. These older folk have been isolated in lockdown, possible Covid & mental health issues, listen to RH for company, & to keep track of City. So, how are they treated - isolation of the isolated.

    Best run club .......

    Control the transmissions,
    Control the interviews,
    Control the crowds / bubbles?
    & still lose the fans...

    They don't care, not a lot we can do until they're gone, ****ers ...

    I don’t even think city make a great deal out of the £10 fee, in normal circumstances (no Covid) how many undecided fans on the day will choose to steam the game rather than go to it. Surley the loss is greater than the gain

    You won’t be getting Viking (thank God)
    You won’t get anything without paying £10 a game

    This action could be borderline business fraudulent activity. I'm pretty sure I've been paying monthly on one of my credit cards for the whole of the extended close season with the expectation of the games being broadcast live once the new season started. Then they announce at the last minute that they are switching providers, changing the ground rules and hiking the prices !!!

    A class action suit may be appropriate if this "eventuality" is not included in the original "Terms & Conditions".

    If the way we played last season is repeated, they should be paying us £10 a game

    They can **** off.
    I'll listen to scunny and get updates or use internet radio to listen via the local stations of the teams we play.
    I begrudge having to pay £30 and not being able to attend games so I'm ****ed if I'll be forking out £10 more.
    These ****s have left me barely dangling by a thread to maintain any interest in the club.
    ****s.

    All Sunderland games are broadcast on Radio Newcastle. Just tune your fathers radio to that

    It's still free for members to stream league games, isn't it?

    Or are you just talking about the Sunderland game?
