From far away in Oz, I have to shake my head at the madness. We're fortunate, in that at our football (AFL), supporters can sit alongside one another and enjoy some lighthearted banter. Shame that isn't the case in the UK.
Yes but that hasnt always been the case , Australia had it's own burgeoning " hooligan " problem not so long ago didnt they...... along ethnic lines if I remember correctly .Has that all gone away now then ?

Great to see yoi in Frate mate! Top atmosphere..i dont get out much, but it was a great place to be proud to be a geordie today.. all the best to you and ya missus.
Great video and explanation around the ‘Blunderland’ saga and the military operation required to get fans there and back. Great negotiations all around IMO so more fans could go than would normally have been allowed (although I don’t expect those Sunderland fans who had to move their seat would agree!) I wonder if this will become the norm if the ‘Mack’s’ ever return to the ‘promised land’ and the fixtures are more regular? Also, will a similar ‘operation’ be carried out if there is a replay today? Keep up the first class commentary Eddy.
Match's just finished eddy 3-0 no bother Fans were brilliant Massive convoy of buses Could of been more, Sunderland were quite poor actually Excellent coverage eddy cheers mate 👍
Jeez Eddie. Who the chuff was paying £600+ for the Black Cat Bar tickets??The reincarnated El Chapo? Howard Marks? Pablo Escobar?? Could have a nice little trip away for that much and I don't mean to Seaburn. The match was a cakewalk for you anyway. we'll get beat by Peterborough tomorrow, nailed on. Cheers
Unbelievable. so we (SAFC) can't trust Newcastle fans who paid £500+ for a ticket to behave themselves and not trash the place? Add onto that the coaching in/out, the amount of time being made hang about, and I get the impression we're being a bit over zealous here.
surely Newcastle would have had the share of ticket money regardless of whether they paid for the buses ? Looking forward to a great performance by the lads in Black & White.
All you had to do to be able to travel freely was to all walk down the road with some Palestine flags and singing to the river to the sea and you would be left well alone.
@@markmangan845 YEAH LEEDS ND SUNDERLAND ALWAYS A GOOD ATMOSPHERE. I LIKE LEEDS ACTUALLY. BIT MIFFED WHEN RELEGATED FROM PREMIER. GOOD SUPPORT AND LOYAL .

Shame about the agro with some fans, I would love to see the Sunderland and the Boro in the premiership along with Newcastle representing the North East of England
Urgh the police dictating the match, the rules, time of kick off, football shirts removed at 6pm. The fan attendance, even the escort. Anyway have a good match best of luck.
Of course they are, they are the ones who have to get into the middle if there's trouble and they want to do everything to mitigate that, Northumbria Police have to cover the county of Northumberland, Newcastle upon Tyne, North Tyneside, South Tyneside and Sunderland.
I’m sure there’s a system in place to make sure that everyone who boards the buses has a match ticket. There has always been repercussions after these derby matches. I felt so sorry for the horses.
Do you have a reference for this bud? Sunderland didn’t do us a favour allowing 6000 fans, there’s a 15% requirement for home clubs regarding FA Cup matches. That should have been 7K + but was capped by police
Did you go to matches before 2000s?...every time I went away with City we were walked to away grounds surrounded by coppers.... That's why the nutters began arranging "meets" between the crews away from the ground... Today's game has the possibility to become very nasty if either side loses.... I never thought for one moment that the Newcastle fans would be allowed to walk freely around Sunderland, did you? 😬
@@TynesideLife 76?...we might have been at Wembley at the same time in the 76 league cup final... The tueart overhead goal will be in my memory forever, both sets of fans were amazing!.. Great day for us not so great for you boys😏👍

Don't know why most of you were bricking it, 400 million squad depth against 40 million squad at best for us, big gulf imo was only going to go one way. Unless we get some rich Arabs willing to buy the club we aren't going to be a match for any team in the prem....
⚫️⚪️We need you to be LOUD today, lads. Louder than normal. Make the Toon players feel like they are playing at home. Come on, the Toon ⚫️⚪️
My son at the game, he said well organised and even got scarf and bottle of water on the bus. Let’s win today and give our all

AFL is full of goons, thats why. we still have segregation at (proper) football. long may that continue.
I'd hate that. Tribalism and passion in the game is what makes it. None of that family friendly stuff.

What a game we'll done
I’ll be watching on the box 👀
Let’s hope the fans behave on both sides
I'm watching it at home on the Telly. Lets hope for a great game with no trouble. 👍
Thanks for this update Eddie, always enjoy watching your videos mate. All the very best mate 👍🖤🤍🖤🤍
Great pre game boots on the ground report Eddie. I don’t live in Newcastle anymore so had no idea this was the procedure for this match 👏

The crowd look like scared sheep. How sad, but a sign of the times.
Well you treat Cattle like Cattle😂
Queuing peacefully without a cop in sight hardly constitutes treating fans like cattle.
Looks like the Lads redecorated the back of Sunderland's net... Magic.

Mackem tears are delicious.
How can this even be legal?
Was a sight to see the coaches heading under escort into the stadium

No metro you scare 😂😂
Sunderland are very mean with their ticket allocations. They only gave us 2000 when we played there. They only gave you 6000 because they had too.
NUFC staff went in...aye...BUT SUFC decided to give us permission and did charge £600 to go into that bar...so greed NEVER wins....0-3😂HWTL
Another great video Eddie ⚽️⚽️👌🏻👌🏻👍

That’s explained in the video Lee. You have a habit of this 😅
@@TynesideLife I know 😬😭 Just concerned for the horses 😂

I feel sorry for those poor gulls tonight. Chuckle.
We forwent our share of the gate receipts as part of the agreement over fan numbers/north stand etc. So the club very much paid for the buses.

Why do you allow yourselves to be treated like cattle? That's why I gave up on it. Now you've got VAR as well!
