Well by the sounds of it we should be telling Pompey to pull the kegs back up cause we raped them....
Was an excellent atmosphere, the fans were getting behind the team, loads of chants, and instead of just hoofing it up the pitch we actually past it around. The team actually looked like they wanted to be there playing for a change and they even did a little huddle before kick off :camp: When Shearer scored though the crowd went wild, he ran over to the corner where I sit and you could tell he was just so chuffed, everyone was jumping on him it was mint he was so happy. When he was going back towards the halfway line i thought for a moment the ref was gunna book him for over celebrating but he just went and shook his hand All of the Shearer chants kicked off for the rest of the match, hopefully it's the start to an improved performance, good to see Dyer back again and let's hope we can keep up the good performances
I was thinking the same like. It was a fantastic game, the best I've seen in a long time. The first half especially, we played really well, had loads of chances. Shearer could've had his goal loads earlier but it was nice to see him get it at the Gallowgate End.. and quality to see the ref shake his hand for it as well. The huddle before k/o was a bit puffy but got a nice round of applause.
I might be a sunderland supporter but I still agree with what shearer said on motd. Newcastle are a sleeping giant.. no silverwear in god knows how long.. but still getting 52,000 a week watching them. Whoever comes along and takes the ropes will find a very good club in restorable shape..
