Metro to mags match official thread

Last year I was on the metro at the tail end of the escort & we were dropped off at Central. Suppose it's easier to walk us up the two main roads rather than drop us right in the centre of town at Monument or Haymarket
 
So is the metro even on? I've had about 5 people text me today saying it's the bus from the sol only. Sorry of SEB, on nights just woke up.

aye defo on. trains are defo not tho

cant see how they can force you on any metro...i understand they need to try and keep everyone together to have some sort of control...but they cant force you surely?
 
Sunderland website said buses are on, trains are off due to maintenance. But metro's are running as normal. The police have said we are getting the 10:15 metro

how do you know?? not saying your lying, just wondering where the official line came from??

i know last time anyone who looked like a footy fan was kept outside the side of the station until they decided to let us all through. was f***ing hundreds and was absolute bedlam on the train..could hardly breath

just wondering how they can possibly stop you from just walking up at say 10.30 and getting on any train you like

There will be a special Metro provided for supporters who wish to travel by rail. It will depart Sunderland Central at 10.13am and travel non-stop to arrive in Newcastle at 10.41am. Returning, it will leave Central Station at 3.10pm and arrive back in Sunderland at 3.37pm.

Cheers marra! They forced us all on one last year iirc, stood us all outside for ages and chucked us all on together.

would get a metro other than the escort tbh mate! get one at 10 or 1030 from st peters, hardly gunna think youre a fan if youre with muff!
 
There was a train and a thirds worth last time and I doubt the police will want the metro as packed as the Boro train.


we got the bus to boro but i was on the football special train last year to newcastle from Sunderland it was packed but wasnt that bad.

I agree but this is a metro and they won't want to do two escorts from Central like last season.
