its for all to see pdc is a clown the ranting and raving on the touch line must unsettle the players I said in early posts and am afraid it looks like its going the way and so early in the season him and jk want to get to gether and **** off

[eastpierlad]

Not sure what constitutes a "big club", trophies? crowds? turnover? who knows.

Both north east clubs have great support both home and away, staggering really given the dross served up most weeks.

Agreed Keith, Unfortunately neither team have had any recent success , even last seasons european adventure ended up working against us!
Obviously since sky & keegans entertainers we have had a much higher profile, bigger crowds, big name signings and more "relative" success. Every neutral i have spoke to regard nufc as a bigger club.

Fickle fans at most clubs Gary, wasn't that long ago Bobby Robson was booed and hounded out of the club.

Oh really? Did that happen? Or you just read it somewhere?

Robson 'hurt' by boo-boys | Newcastle United, Fixtures, Results, Transfers | Sky Sports

You were there? Surely?

That's not right and you know it though is it, the majority of fans were behind sir bobby, of course some weren't, no manager can please all the fans all the time. He wasn't hounded out of the club

I take offence when Sunderland supporters try to score points by bringing the late great Sir Bobby Robson into it, there's just no need.

[KeithB]

I was highlighting all clubs including yours have fickle fans.

Was there that season. We had just finished 5th. Had failed to invest and only brought in bowyer.

There was plenty unrest as we could see other clubs overtake us.

However to say Robson was " hounded out" its laughable but not the first time yous have tried to rewrite history is it.

[eastpierlad]

No , I think you were attempting to point score, I understand that as a mackem you aren't happy at the minute, but i think using Sir Bobby was in very poor taste.

You'll be telling me next that stokoe wasn't sacked after leading you to relegation, and everyone was behind him?

I agree some fans are fickle, I'm not, I have realistic expectations, I have never booed my side off.

bit o' googlerising later

Newcastle 4 league titles ( but last was 1927 )
6 FA Cup wins ( but last was 1955 )
1 European Trophy - Fairs Cup/UEFA 1969 (last trophy)

so Newcastle 11 major trophies, but ages ago!!

Sunderland 6 league titles (but last was 1936)
2 FA Cups ( but last was 1973 )

so Sunderland 8 major trophies.



Sunderland top five premier league finishes: 0

Newcastle top five premier league finishes: 7



Sunderland seasons in Europe: 1

Newcastle seasons in Europe 17



so sunderland last won a trophy 4 years more recently than us, in 1973 versus 1969.



So basically neither of us are big clubs, and both have our fair share of feckwits

did also stumble upon the following factoid:

"Shola Ameobi has scored more goals in Europe than Sunderland AFC have in their entire history. Enough said. 5-1"

who'd a thunk it

(not even gonna go near relagation facts and figures!)

[KeithB]

I understand that as a mackem...

I'm not a mackem.

I agree some fans are fickle

The very point I was making.

I have realistic expectations

me too, been going about 35 years had few highlights over the years and never really expect to win any silverware.

[garyp]

Also Newcastle have never played outside the top two divisions.

[broon shoe]

gan abit easy on our marras from ower the wata there feelin abit low at the mo bless

sorry, I use the term mackem regarding which team you support, not which part of the country you live in, obviously you could quite easily be a geordie sunderland fan , but not everyone on here would understand that!
