Gene_Clark 12 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Well I've had a great night with Adam Johnson; he's delighted to be signing for us. Atromitos were great hosts & the meal in Hotel Omonia in Glyfada was tremendous. Looking forward to press conference in the morning. At least 7k Mags here tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McFaul 35 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 (edited) To be honest by 2007 many of us were getting bored of the Europa League, we must've played 40 games in the UEFA/Europa between 2003 and 2007 and we walked the vast majority of them, the only time it got vaguley interesting was the last 16. When you've had Champions League the UEFA/EL is a very very poor substitute. The EL is the absolute limit of what Sunderland could achieve, or a club like Stoke, for us, we still dream of where we once were. The fans who were there tonight paid £600 for their flights, to watch a near reserve team battle out a turgid 1-1 draw. Pards was good enough to give the fans an idea it wasn't going to be anywhere near our strongest side. So who the fuck has got £1000 to waste on an European away to third rate opposition to watch our reserves go through the motions? You pathetic mackem arsehole, there are no people in life more small time than you idiotic bastards. You wake up in a SR postcode and you'll die in one, there's no greater insult than that. I guarantee when Sunderland get in to Europe they'll take 3000 regardless where they play, because NOT ONE OF THEM, has seen Sunderland play in Europe, the same as us when no one my age had seen us in Europe and we took 11.000 to Antwerp in 1994. They'll proclaim themselves as great fans, it's all very predictable. Edited August 23, 2012 by McFaul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davey Dave 0 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 An attendance for an away tie of a EUROPEAN match is a bizarre thing to mock, no? Are we supposed to be upset? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Lack of hardcore fans Its around £500+ to sort out travel and tickets to the game with about 14 days notice and thats for one game. Your lot wont even fork out £400 for 19 games man ffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asprilla 96 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Just got back from the game, (on Concorde like), me and a few hundred of the lads boarded a few Concordes to see the game and it was a decent run out for the fringe players. Luckily I brought my tool box mind you. It was strange how it happened because , 500 of us got together and decided to hire a small fishing trawler to get to the game. As luck happened, we walks past a few Concordes and both the pilots had the bonnets up on them. I shouted, " you alright lads" and they shouted, " nah mate, our Concordes have broke down and we aren't in the AA." I shouted, " here lads, I just happen to have my tool box on me here, do you want me to have a deek at your engines." Well , they were over the moon and said, " aye, see what you can do." Anyway, there I am under the bonnet and spots the problem on one and I shouted, "ok mate, get in your Concorde and pump the pedal, your carb had a bit of seagull feather jammed in it." Sure enough he turns the key and Vroom vroom, it was purring like a kitten. I jumped over to the other one and guess what? He only had a dropped chip in his carb, obviously from a seagull like and soon enough, his Concorde was purring as well. Both pilots said, " how can we thank you mate" and I said, " you wouldn't happen to be going to Greece would you, the Newcastle games on and we don't want to miss it...we'll all chip in for the juice like." The pilots asked me how many of us were going and I just said, us 500, plus the other 1000 that's turned up to watch me fix your motors like. Sure enough, both pilots get on their phones and a few minutes later, what turns up? Only another 4 Concordes. Brilliant man. The pilots all shouted, "howay lads, hop on, we will take you all to Greece free of charge and bring you back because we can't thank Wolfy enough for sorting our motors out like." Aye it was a great journey and they laid some drinks on for us and sarnies and what not and even brought over a load of air hostesses, in-fact I kid you not, we all had one hostess each attending to us. Not only that though, as we were flying out, we spotted another few hundred lads that looked like they were hitchiking to Greece, so we picked them up as well. The planes were packed but we enjoyed the night , all 4700 of us. Tremendous. *applauds* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Carr's Gloves 3215 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 A guy on RTG said "if Sunderland played in Europe and only took 50 fans to an away game would the mags take the piss?" Obviously the correct answer to this conundrum is "We will never know". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJS 3986 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 EDIT: Soz NJS, you mackem lover Just trying to avoid any "You think football started in 1992" comebacks. I think they played a Polish team (open to correction) and I can't imagine any more than 47 being allowed to travel there in the 70s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene_Clark 12 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 the mackems debut home tie in europe attracted a crowd of 22,762 to joker park. however, considering they only got 8,142 v Portsmouth the same season, that's not too bad is it?

Interestingly, when we lost to the latter in the UEFA QF in 2005, it meant that all 3 NE teams had played their last games in Europe v Sporting Lisbon, at that time.....
