Anyone who is in a pub within 10 miles of Sunderland should be banned from ever attending again and they are a disgrace to the club
Well they already aren't there

Dont talk shite, there will be mid-high 30's there tonight by the looks of it. Which is a class crowd IMHO.
Should be 48k, but the usual "fans" - alot of which get on here - will make their excuses etc, be lucky to get 42k.
Disgraceful for a club like us tbh, who prides itself on being some of the best supporters in the country etc., after a superb result and performance last week and with tickets being cheap as chips.
Will Short and Quinn give Bruce money to push us on further towards the elite, if a lot of our "support" don't even give enough of a shit to go, when the tickets are cheap as fuck and the team is playing mint? Shame for the rest of us who are there week-in, week-out like, regardless of how things are going. Rant Ower.
Baring in mind its on sky, its freezing , pissing down and half the people on here prefer to spend £20 on a monday night out boozing in town rather than actually going and getting behind the lads !!
The £20 for x 2 may grab a few punters in !!
Il hazard a guess at 35,000
Haway the lads
Pissing down
cold
monday night
on telly
....But above all ...The Recession .....as another (close to home) example NUFC after THAT result against us and an away win at Arsenal drew only 41.000 against Blackburn i.e. more than 10.000 down from the game against us ....and let's face it whatever else may be said about them the mags their attendances are usually good.
We are living through the worst financial crisis in all of our lives and we think it strange that attendances are down?![]()
Fair point, but thats y i said tonight, theres no real excuse, the club have made an effort to attract supporters by lowering tickets prices to a level that is hopefully affordable for fans. If anybody still can't afford the cost of a ticket, thats fair enough, but if you go to your local boozer and spend £20 on the piss n watch it on the telly, then IMO your not the type of fan that this club needs.

The club doesn't need fans now? Make ya f***ing mind up.
What an idiot!! The club needs fans, ofcourse, what i was saying is that the club doesn't need the type of fan that is in no way 'supporting' the club, we're a business ffs wether people like it or not!!! And its fair enough if you genuinely can't afford to go, or you have other priorities, but if you'd rather go to the pub, get lashed and watch it on sky then ok, but don't class yourself as a supporter, its exactly the same scenario as seeing people in a man utd shirt, and them saying "I support man utd" well no, you don't, you watch them on the telly, just the same as i do! Only difference is you cheer when they score, i don't! you are in fact in no way supporting the club, except maybe your mum buying a a piece of merchandise at xmas!!
I reckon the club as business wants those fans through the turnstiles then, but you don't want them there.
Why people get so worked up over others choices is beyond me.
Looks like a decent crowd, more of the North Stand filled than usual for this type of game. 37 to 38 thousand.

Ofcourse i want them there!! 35,000 is a lot better than 32,000, but not quite as good as 39,000!!
N i get so worked up because do you really think that Mr Short will continually put his hand in his pocket to pay for the darren bent's, the asamoah gyan's when the club aren't matching attendances which we have previously had??
What would you be thinking if you'd backed this club with a lot of money, being led to believe that this club is a 'sleeping giant', looking back to attendances 10 year ago and seeing almost capacity crowds at every home game (Bob Murray era ffs....sorry, Sir Bob Murray era)....and now, looking at attendances of 35,000 being considered as 'class' when ticket prices have been reduced to make them affordable for fans????
we would get 50,000 if we were playing tonite. fairwether smb's.
