jamthesun Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 (edited) One of the unassailable myths of football. Along with Liverpool fans. The top clubs fans are all hugely passionate and I count ourselves in that. Geordies and Scoucers aren't special. It's just lazy journalism.

OWL1969 Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 I was sat below em. Believe me they weren't quiet. Made some fantastic noise until the 2nd goal went in. Best away support I have heard at Hillsborough this season. Depends where you were sat though I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frastheowl Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 For their numbers, very quiet. They didn't have a lot to shout about though, to be fair! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adem Poric Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 We absolutely mugged em off today. Their team got a right good shellacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the Villa fans made far more noise although in fairness they got both tiers of the away end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legendaryswan Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Fair enough its a one club city with virtually NO competition for fans,but theyve always travelled well in big numbers and very vocal. They live off past glories a bit like us,but you cant knock 50oddK every week,just beggers belief why they barely seem to compete at the top end of english football. Unlike the last time they were down here,theyve not run away with this league and will need some solid investment to make sure they dont return.Theyve not impressed in the games with us,and weve been well below par on last season. I do like the geordies,there a decent bunch,Ive had a few scrapes with their fans over the years,won a few lost a few as you do,but there honest football fans.

Was sat in North Stand West corner for Villa, Geordies sounded alot noisier, but that maybe because I was sat directly below em. Good to see even the South Stand get behind the lads today.

sheffield_dave Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Proper football club, proper football fans. Thought their fans were very good today. A bit like ourselves, loud and proud without having to resort to organised YouTube support like Derby, Palace etc. I did however also think our home support was excellent today and perhaps that drowned the away following out for many.

Davetherave Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 We are similar clubs ... although a bit smaller city than ours, they only have rugby union, the leek growing clubs and pidgeon fancying societies for competition. I think that might explain the difference between average attendances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
