Sunderland sorry after stadium bar gets Newcastle decor

Sunderland chiefs have apologised for a "serious error in judgement" after a bar at the Stadium of Light was decorated in the colours of arch-rivals Newcastle ahead of Saturday's FA Cup derby.

Only just catching up on this story (will be speaking to my parole officer on monday about being allowed out a bit more). Has to be said; whoever signed off on that at the club has some questions to answer. If we did something similar when Trafford's finest come to visit, I dread to think how this forum would cope. The servers would spontaneously combust. It's dreadful judgement.

Welcome. Painted a bar black and white. On another bar is a Sunderland slogan Haway The Lads. Theyve crossed Haway out and put a black Howay for newcastles chant.View attachment 103392View attachment 103392

They realised their ‘mistake’ and removed it all, about five minutes after it popped up on socials.

Although Newcastle fans are going to need something to relieve the boredom. They were queuing up right round their ground at 07.30 this morning to get on official coaches to the game.

Apparently it’s the only way of getting tickets. No independent travel allowed.
