Cup final Course it was. Big turn out to have a go at a manager who couldn't wait to leave you for Stoke. Oops. Not even our biggest attendance of the season. Now I know that having more than 20,000 in a stadium might seem a lot to you, but it's fairly standard up here

Did they all go for a piss or did they wander up to St James's Park to watch a proper North East side?

I doubt anyone will give Alex Neil a moment's through after today, it was always going to be a bit pantomime when in actual fact (today apart) we are happy to have a manager who is a better fit for this club

You need better comebacks

We should have scored more. Even the seagulls arrived to shit on ye. You sound bitter watching your team tumbling down the league 👌

Think it actually means 'let's roll over and have our tummy tickled in our cup final'. Cup final It really was your cup final and like your north east neighbours you lost it. Your defeat was far more embarrassing though after all your fans little Stoke comments when Neil left you. It also shows that Alex Neil left because you are shit 😁

You say anti-football but it really wasn't was it. We did a job on you and if you were honest it should have been alot more than five. I quite like haway who posts on here as he says it as he sees it and doesn't come on here to get a rise out of people. You however are like the majority of Sunderland fans, deluded in the extreme. You think you are a footballing powerhouse because you get good attendances but fail to realise that it's irrelevant. You say you are happy with Mowbray which says it all really, Neil out thought him in every way today and deep down you wish you still had him as manager. However he saw the light and fucked off, rather like the majority of your fans when that third goal went in today 🤣

This has long troubled me... It means “come on lads” Newcastle have the exact same saying, except they spell it Howay. It’s a North East thing. Come to think of it, there’s a poster on here consistently saying ‘Gouranga’ at the end of their posts. What does that mean? Also baffles me. Find it weird the need to end each post on a message board with that as a fully grown man tbh.

You are higher in the league and for the majority of it played better football whilst retaining a nasty streak. But yesterday you deserved to lose, should have conceded more and had a red card too. You should still have enough points to stay above us, but it could be very close.

All my dearly missed dads family came down from Sunderland for pit work in the 60s (part of the huge Bentilee estate and its overflow eventually to Biddulph), I always marvelled at my dad, uncle and nan/grandads chatter that almost became its own language after a few beers! Haway as above is universally used as 'come on' - from an almost derisory 'haway man' (come on youth) if unhappy about somebodys effort/attitude, 'haway the lads' (come on lads) as encouragement Can be 'go on', 'come on', 'hurry up' and lots of other meanings - its a chivvy on! Some of my dads legendary sayings of 'hadaway and shite man' (thats nonsense you fool), 'why aye man' (yes, certainly), 'thants canny' (its very good), 'bliddy helles belles man woman' (for Gods sake usually aimed at my nan lol) - I miss them all and the bonkers Sunday dinners. Its no worse than him living here contending with conner, wunner, dunner, bosted etc :-) (He was mortified that I became a Stokie, wrong red and white he would say, but my grandad on my mums side made me a season ticket holder aged 4 and I've been going through thin and thinner ever since) Similar here. Dad was a Newcastle fan, although he took me to watch Stoke a few times. Early childhood was surrounded by North-East accents...miners for the most part.

I think people from Sunderland, or Geordies as they are known like to drop their Ts. So they are basically giving a direction That way lads so they know which way to go People from Sunderland are not known as Geordies. Geordies are born on the banks of the river Tyne - eg Newcastle, Gateshead and South and North Shields. Sunderland people were originally known as Makems. That referred to their ship building traditions. "Ships - we Makem (make em)." Whoosh 🙂
