wasn't that the day the petrol tanker blew up on Newcastle Road. I remember waiting at The Wheatsheaf rounabout for the supporters association bus. Newcastle road still closed off. We were shite.

Blackpool away around 1975. Two nowt down got it back to 2-2 then that pelanty miss from Billy Hughes, peanut seller in the white coat behind the goal jumping around trying to put him off. They gan up the other end and that greasy haired get Walsh scores the goal of the season to win it for them in the last minute. Was a bit lively on their Kop that day too, running battles and stuff being lobbed around.

Swindon away, first game of the 92/93 season. News came through Bracewell had scored a screamer for them and minutes later Hoddle did the same for Swindon. Lost 1-0 and moaned all day about Bracewell scoring on his debut for them after rarely scoring us and how them up the road are lucky bar stewards, nowts changed.

Bristol City in 1994. Good old Shields branch got us in just before halftime. Finished 0-0.
Millwall in 1991. Persuaded me mate to go after we'd been to Barnsley in midweek and won 3-0. Millwall humpted us 4-1. Randomly they had stewards handing out sandwiches to us as we left the ground
i was mascot that day, put 3 past tony norman in the warm up, big bad don hit the bar for us in the 1st half, thats about all that happened

Don't think it was a late kick off. Diouf did score for them, utter crap game like. Jonny Evans kept us in it.

I was at the game, for some strange reason I thought it was on the box and a late kick off.

Remember that one. We got seriously lost on the way there (dont ask how or why) - I blame my navigator.... @The Archer
That day was a catalogue of errors. IIRC my little Uno needed a new tyre, but the tyre fitters somehow managed to rupture some pipe or other so there was a leak meaning you had to drive still pissed from the night before.
Doing the trip with no map using my memories of being driven past a few signs for West Brom on the way to my grandmas years earlier wasn't the best plan to be fair.

You're right though, the lack of map did us no favours at all
Thems were the days!!

Unfortunately, as I was with the Shields branch, I didn't see any of that!! Well done on your 3 goals. Should've had you up front that day
Tramere away in April 1998. The Grand National festival was on and it was a Friday night game. Some pissed race goer through a cone at our car as we passed near Aintree. We won 2-0 and there must have been 2 Sunderland fans to 1 seat were we where. Absolutely rammed. There was about of 12 my mates had travelled down and we all came out the ground running down the road doing this ridiculous celebration down the road. Had to dodge a couple of cars anarl

Could have been one of these,think it was the 1994 game. Can't remember,but the highlight of the night was when a lass carrying an advertising board above her head was walking round the ground at half-time.When she got to where we were behind the goal,the poor thing had to go from one corner flag to the other to the strain of "get your tits out for the lads". Hilarious,but we needed something to take our mind off the match and that horrible Brummy accent.

Aye, 5:30 Saturday kick off. Thankfully I'd been out all afternoon, so the match wasn't too bad. We were utter shite.

Speaking of Shildon I remember going to Leicester with them with our kid 1988 (lost 3-1).
Memorable only for one of the lads getting halfway down the bus to the 'toilet' (a length of hose pipe attached to a funnel leading out of the door & wedged next to the handrail of the bus) seeing a queue, saying 'Fuck it' and deliberately pissing his trackie bottoms.
I think this must have been quite a regular thing as he had other jeans to change in to.

Only things I recall from that game were Dave Mitchell taking us apart and the start of the spat between Kasey Keller and Goodman. Goodman may have been sent off? Could be my mind playing tricks with me. Went there with the Shields branch, quite a day out!!!
