Fans today


For being 4-0 down at half time and everyone knowing it was over the 2nd half i give massive credit to the fans. Was surprising the number of times we outsang forest fans when the game was dead. Yes people left early and i don't blame them at 4-0, but more stayed than i thought and made some great noise at times.
I’m not one to boast but I think I had us pumped up
 
Watched on Sky and was surprised how full it was start of 2nd half. Fair play to all (they had the Millwall-Leics game on the main screens so couldn't hear anything - Lundun innit).
 
Second half atmosphere was decent until the VAR.

Everyone left in the ground was (naturally, as we stayed) up for it to support the lads and it showed.
 
Wasn't there but with 20 mins to go mate comment to mate about empty seats.
Mind only had telly pics to go with
I couldn't make it tonight but back for man utd game , I never leave early unless it's due to having to catch last train from Newcastle to york on a night game which is often dicey tbh if train not on time from sunderland to Newcastle before I can even catch last train home so tbf there is mitigation for a good few fans having to leave early with similar scenarios I'm sure as not all will live in sunderland itself

I'm not criticising fans who left early mate.If you read previous posts by me I've always maintained it is individuals choice.
I'm just saying how it looked to me via TV

No worries mate, i respect that. Altho tbh I'd rather walk home back to York than kip in my sons shared student gaff again in durham which I had to on new years day evening game v man city, due to no other way home as bank holiday, ffs I should have had a tetanus jab for that one...but yeh evening games do become a pain in the arse when not local for getting home.
 
Deluded RTG going to have a field day here.

19 mins after the first and there were people heading downstairs. Surely they weren't beating the queue for a beer?
