Was in there for the England game also, but the locals were saying it is very much a home pub.

At 18. He is now 21. If he physically isn't up to it now, I doubt he ever will be.

I do get that, but we seem to finally have a little stability at the club, so let's just take a breath. We could spend £5 million in the next couple of weeks and it still wouldn't guarantee anything. After the last 10 years of turmoil I've no issue with the approach we are currently taking. At...

He's right though. The Championship is a house of cards. What is it with football fans calling for owners to gamble in this way? A couple of million, you could easily spunk that on one failed signing and it would make no difference whatsoever. The sooner that all football clubs are forced to...

That's the worst kind of draw for me. The sort of game where they rock up with thousands of day trippers in jester hats, we don't bother to turn out, and we have to put up with 90 minutes of 'your support is fucking shit'. Bringing back memories of Worcester just thinking about it. Leicester...

Since when has a waterlogged pitch posed a risk to players?

Did think that. Looked like a player saying goodbye and on his way out.

Some odd comments on here. A very comfortable afternoon. Barely got out of 2nd gear and didn't need to, Derby were absolutely dogshit.

Aye. Sympathise with the indifference to this game from some, but now it's matchday, fuck it and get up there. What else you gonna do on a wet Saturday in January?

Never seen so many police at a city game

Thought I'd wait until this morning to buy tickets as there were loads left where I wanted to sit, but notice they have now closed blocks 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 and 21 to sales. It's almost like they don't want anyone at the game.

Heads up for anyone who drinks at Bull and Anchor before the game, don't bother as they are closing the pub in next 30 mins.

Most clubs have a bumper gate between Christmas and New Year. That's very much on trend. Sunderland's 3 lowest home turn outs this season have been in their last 3 games.

The whole thing is a nonsense and makes no sense. The way that taking an LFT is seen as some sort of compromise when actually it is by far the most sensible measure. A recent negative test trumps a meaningless QR code when most of the current spread is through vaccinated people in any case...

When I say 'a lot', I'm not suggesting a majority or anything close to it. I've just being going for a long time and know that traditionally the last home game before Christmas is a shit turnout. Crowds will be down across the country this weekend, but don't ask me to explain it, although I...

Well indeed, don't get it myself, but people do. There are ST holders around me who aren't there half the time.

15% actually. Either way, Derby won't be bringing much to this game in any case.

Think they will easily. They have before, it will appeal to their day trippers and they can pull out a very big following every now and again.

Thursday they have the Comedy Club I think, so sounds like that is going well.

Looks like being the lowest home turn out for a good while. Last weekend before Xmas traditionally sees low attendances. On top of a low overall gate, I can see a lot of season ticket holders giving it a swerve and there will be a lot of empty seats. A bit like Huddersfield yesterday, nothing...
