In fairness, the traffic along Leeds Road to get back on to the M62 was bad.

That way out to the M62 was a nightmare - I would say it easily added an hour to the journey but to make it worse there was no reason that I could see apart from a temporary traffic light just as you join the M62 which took an age to change to green 😡

We were still stuck in the car at that traffic light, about 1.5 miles from the ground, an hour after the final whistle. Then the A19 was closed at Wolviston and it was diverted through Hartlepool FFS.

I got back in the house at 12.50 am. Worth it though, for the 3 points! 😀

What an absolute bastard that was, worth it though.

Think I was in some sort of lonely hearts row, I was by myself and so were the lads either side of me.

Atmosphere was good but fuck me I despise drums, it was so monotonous from them, they were actually canny loud otherwise. Can't imagine how they must have felt when Pritchard scored. :lol:

I was working in the office today at Doxy and left there at 4:45pm, got parked at 7:25pm and got into the ground at 7:40pm. Left at full time, walked back to the car and got home at 12:30am. Did not have time for a pint or any food, had a sandwich and packet of crisps in the car though. Having a bit chill now as working from home tomorrow and don't start till 9am. Struggle to go straight to bed after a long drive. Weather was poor as well especially on the way down and had to take a detour to avoid a jam on the M62.

Had to go though as that was my 79th of the current 92 grounds with Sunderland. I had seen Huddersfield v Sheff Wed there previously but I have a rule now that I will not miss an away game with Sunderland if I have not seen us play there before.
 
Hilarious when minutes after falling over trying to play the ball, Pritchard scored and the whole SAFC end turned to their left and chanted Alex Pritchard da da da etc…at their daft lads!

Priceless! 🤣

You probably deserved it I reckon.

Superb as always and backed the team throughout. Unlike some fannies on here who piss and moan constantly at the first mistake.

Top class.

I'm very glad most of the fannies on match day threads don't go to matches. Would ruin it for everyone.

I was as respectful as one would expect throughout the match mate.

There's posters on the matchday thread who must go thro life without even the most basic form of self awareness. Must be class being absolutely shameless.
