FA Cup Games | 3rd Round | 4/5/6/7/8 Jan '24

Is 14 miles apart too far to be considered a derby?

try asking that to either set of fans ;-)

Of course it's not a derby; a proper derby is a game between two clubs from the same city.* it's a rivalry. The more sensible fans from either side would admit that.

Not sure how many "sensible" fans will be around today, mind.


*Yes; I know. Utd aren't in Manchester.

 

[citytill1die84]

Talk about a kit clash fuck me.

 

[pudge]

Don't really get Jobe Bellingham's fuss about using his surname

 

[One Fan Clapping]

Be nice if they could get some pundits who you could understand what they are saying.

Be good if they both weren’t wearing similar kits!!

 

[waspish]

Newcastle will win comfortably

 

[jimharri]

Why both in stripes, fucking ridiculous

You have a point. When you see other clubs wearing their change strips when there's no need, that's crazy out there.

That FA Cup Final win over the Rags was my favourite moment of last season.

Conveniently brushed under the carpet by the media. Could you imagine what it would have been like if we had lost!

Dwight Yorke admits he has 'struggled' to watch Manchester United

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW BY CHRIS WHEELER: Dwight Yorke finds Manchester United a tough watch these days. Sometimes he won't bother and just catch the highlights, if that's the right word.

This might warm your cockles!

Gonna give me a fucking migraine watching this

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

Come on Sunderland!

Hard for one city teams tbf so regional derbies are fine for them inho.
stupid things like rags/red scouuce or madrid/barca are not a derby in any sense though.


Be good to see Sunderland back up and these games

 

[MCFC1993]

Both playing in kits that are 50% white is ridiculous.

Makes it a hard watch tbh and I was looking forward to this.

It can’t be that black and white. Barnet vs Charlton can’t be classed as a derby, yet are in the same city.

 

[Gray]

Injury at Sunderland, the linesman.

Newcastle should have been made to change, it is very difficult viewing.

 

[MCFC1993]

Change the kits during this break.

Yeah, it’s pretty annoying.

 

[tregyblue61]

Talk about a kit clash fuck me.

For those watching in black and white, Sunderland are in the red stripes.

 

[Gray]

Change the kits during this break.

The TV company should have intervened before kick off.

It's more of a derby than this game.

 

[Protein Junkie]

For us FOCs we endured years of kit clashes before Colour TV. This game is a luxury compared to then :-)
