If you really want to see atmosphere use your Kodi and log on to the State of Origin game Wednesday 8PM in Sydney ( 11 AM your time ) QLD v NSW A crowd of 85,000 watching men play , you will see two men each twenty stone of bone and muscle, that look like they just learned to walk upright , running into each other full tilt , shake their heads and continue with the game , unlike other codes where if one player does not tuck his shirt in and it brushes against his opponent, the offended player then goes to ground writhing in agony and the ref blows his whistle, stop the game , free kick , if you are of a nervous disposition or you have an affection for fairies stay away
Based on first hand experience. You appear slightly desperate now trying to convince a board full of Newcastle fans that Sunderland's home crowd gave better support than the Newcastle home fans last season...based on your first hand experiences of both.
I'm talking to you I don't hide from the fact that I have a season ticket at both clubs, it means I never miss any football on the weekend. That is what you wanted to hear, right?
I would like you all to acknowledge how Sunderland supporters win or lose keep turning up, Newcastle only if they are winning
What incredible loyalty that shows, supporters obviously with previous appointments ( Heart transplants etc) but who feel they should give what little time they can, I take my hat off to them
OK Maybe I should not be making fun of you but don't you realise the desperation your reply signifies
86.3% Full Villa and the mackems are the only two teams in the division last year to have less that 92% full capacity! Newcastle also had 120,000.00 more people through the door! Wow smashed!
How can you possibly call yourselves supporters when the figures prove conclusively that you will only turn up when they are winning , the same figures prove that Sunderland supporters are just that SUPPORTERS willing to turn up even on the rare occasions that the team are not doing well
