Was it as pathetic as that idiot centre half whose name I’ve forgottens dive for a penalty and punch off the line? I mich prefer his heeding the post tbh.

Just as well there was a net on the goal, cos that ball would still be travelling now he hit it that hard.

Took my first wife to that game, it was her first ever match.
She said it was mental, fully grown men falling down the seats onto each other, hugging and kissing each other. Then after the game the stadium was bouncing, she couldn’t hear herself think for hours afterwards

What a day, what a free kick and what a night.
Cisse was on fire that day, could have and should’ve had more goals.

Unplayable when he was in the mood, other times he was just in a mood
To think we once had players of his calibre and what we have now

I drank with the legend Toontoon in Newcastle on the night.
I then slept in the dog basket when I got home after the wife dragged me in off the street as I was singing my head off.

That was one mental celebration that mind, absolute carnage in the away end.

Dug out my match programme for that day...Front cover pic of Richardson firing in an identical free-kick and hitting the woodwork at Fulham the previous week..Also a quote by Cisse "I always score on derby days",...and Keanos manager notes "We've a good chance of winning and if we can our supporters will enjoy their pints tonight" Roy lad, on behalf of the thousands who more than enjoyed their pints that night...thanks for the celebrations, and the memories.

Still hard to believe that when I went to my first derby when Stan Cummings scored that it would be 28 years until another home win !!!!!

I was right behind it too in the North stand Upper with my two lads! I was in tears at the end, as we're exiles and I hadn't seen us beat them for decades. I first went to Roker in '57, and in the next 40 years we were unbeaten by them when we were in the same division. (League games only- they were in a higher div 13 times; we were a class above 7 times) That 28 year stat is deceptive, as there were loads of draws and most of the 'wrong league' ones.
They had a good spell in the early 00s, which made that day so sweet, and to win it with a world class goal was just sublime. Happy Days!

I took a friendly fire smack right in the gob when we equalised.
Was in big trouble when I got home, as my mam was convinced I'd been fighting!

As long as it's not possession as a tie breaker, otherwise they would win hands down.
Remember like yesterday, me and me dad still saying simultaneously about the free kick, “it’s too close” as it burst the back of the net
