Sat amongst the rabid gravy guzzlers not far behind out dugout and when Tommy saved the pen sat with my head in hands rocking and screaming to myself to be consoled by some patting me on back saying 'anar mate the f***ing bastards' !!! Had to leave with 2 mins to go because I was about to explode ! Heard our lads on final whistle, went back to car and blasted car horn all the way through Newcastle with scarf out of window ! Silly Sod ! 😊

When the coaches were escorted back to the S.O.L we had a standing ovation
From The Sunderland fans who had been watching at the beam back.

How can you confuse 99 with the Sorensen penalty save game? Bizarre.
 
superb day 18/11/2000. was in the back row end seats near the home fans, and the coppers next to us were all sunderland fans, fair to say they looked after us. after the game, all the buses had gone, and we suddenly realised our bus was fucked. here we are bus full of sunderland fans, outside a pub full of raging Newcastle fans, kept back by a police horse blocking the door entrance. anyway we ended up getting a police escort through the city with the team bus. minding our own business, out of nowhere this absolute clapped out banger of a car (mini metro type), making horn noises... anyway some bloke with sunderland flags and scarfs driving through the middle of Newcastle, obviously enjoying himself, so funny yet very surreal to see. one of the best days out ever.

He's there again lad! ;):lol:
 
I was in the home end as a guest of Newcastle breweries. Downside was I couldn't celebrate when we scored. Upside was hearing the home fans kicking off when we did!
 
I was a student in Newcastle. Went to some mates' flat in Newcastle. They were spurs fans, there was another mate who was a mag and a random guy into rugby. The football was on the radio and England Australia in the rugby on TV. When Shearer missed the penalty my mag mate got up and left without saying a word. Then Australia missed a kick to touch to finish the rugby game and England ended up winning that.
