Still the 'in' thing on here to be a South Shields fan? Last season the 'in' thing was to get over to watch a bundesliga game, this season it's get along to watch South Shields.
 
Where is the game being played? I live 10 minutes from the saints pub.

Tell the driver to make sure he double locks the coach door. The pub is on an estate called milbrook or as it's known around these parts "millbronx"
As you're a local, any cab companies you'd recommend round there? I've got to get to St Mary's for the Southampton - Arsenal game after so will need to make time quickly
 
great support and really good for football as the university team will make a quid or two if they get their planning right with catering etc

hopefully a successful day for shields on the way to a potential final

we've never really had a day at Wembley apart from the rugby club a few years ago

for the older fans on here who pretty much did support mainly sunderland and shields back in the late sixties and early seventies hopefully a small taste of success beckons.

clubs like Whitley Bay, North Shields, Morpeth and now maybe South Shields are surely good for the area when they win national cups

something sadly both Sunderland and Newcastle have failed to deliver since the late 60's and early 70's

for shields yes they were the peterlee days and they were the simonside hall days but there's always been the potential for a canny league club in shields

being honest the lack of a league club is probably why so many shields people took the eco and the number 14 to sunderland rather than the train to Newcastle for many years

in todays modern game there's surely a lower league place future for a Shields or a Gateshead

lets face it both clubs would be good for crowds of 5 or 6 thousand if doing OK

and even for sunderland supporters and mags it would be good to see a game and get away from the circus

It's a bit out in the sticks and no cab companies around there so might struggle unless you book in advance. Just order one for 5pm from The Saints pub.

I'm having a cheese and wine soiree on the bus down.. got me wine and a pack of baby bell cheeses with ritz crackers..

What time you planning on getting down here? Send me a message when you hit Oxford and I'll set off.

Download an app called cab my ride when you get here. Works a bit like uber, will cost you about £10 from there. Or you could use uber but they don't seem to have many drivers around here and I've struggled to get one at times.

All other firms will charge about £15

Thanks for that. Downloaded the app, looks canny.
 
Gannin along to this as there's no SAFC match to suffer. Not been to a Shields match since they lost to Morecambe in the Trophy semi final back in 74
I was at that game like

If you remember I got my scarf nicked by morcambe fans in a bit of a punch up then they put it in the centre circle which I collected

Some of the bigger Shields lads were waiting for me when I got back to the stands so the Morcambe fans kept their distance after that

Fuck off you sandie gits, SAFC are in crisis and you fuckers are slavering on about a f***ing mag pub team.
Have a word with yourselves man. You are not worthy, bunch of tribe less traitors, we don't want you.
I know plenty of proper SAFC sandies who don't give a shite about your mag pub team, proper lads.
Do one man.
