Great second half from us up there back in October, they couldn't handle us and collapsed.
Hope their defence is still as shaky.

They got totally 'Bensoned' in that second half.

Population of Sunderland is about 4 times more than Burnley and bigger than Newcastle, why wouldn’t they sell out .

Totally agree. The media love in with how brilliant Newcastle and Sunderland fans are is a joke.
There's literally millions of people up in that area with a couple of decent football clubs to chose from..

Proper fans are the Mackems, factor in geography and their following all over is ridiculous. I understand they are bigger than many teams in terms of population but their fans are incredible.

Sunderland to Burnley is a 220 mile round trip. Further than Burnley to Wolverhampton, we pretty much had a row to ourselves at Wolves away last season. It’s easy to sing when you’re winning, great supporters.

Don’t do that it is pointless you will get nothing useful back, my girlfriends Dad who is a lovely guy won’t have anything red in his flat because he hates them that much. In my experience living in the middle of the 2 Cities they are the same fans just 1 wears red and white the other wears Black and white. 1 says howay the lads the other says haway the lads for example.

City club with massive surrounding catchment areas sells 2200 tickets. Shock horror.

Sunderland always have a good away support. Can’t undersatnd the negativity when they’ve sold out

Should be great atmosphere.

An odd thread really as anyone who knows anything about football knows that Sunderland would always, always sell out ! Great fans and will make it a top atmosphere. Hopefully another memorable Friday night along the lines of the WBA game.

Couldn’t agree more. I always think they are a bit like us in that the football club dominates the place, it matters to them. They live and breathe their football club.

I dont think that's true at all. Maybe in the city specific areas it'll be close, but Newcastle metropolitan region is much, much bigger. And there arent millions and millions of people within easy reach of the clubs. I think there's less than 2 million people in Northumberland, Tyne&Wear, and County Durham. And that is a massive area. In fact, the area around Sunderland is pretty remote, with only a small number of towns of any decent population, and most of those are closer to other clubs ie Newcastle, Darlington, Hartlepool, Middlesbrough
Sunderland are just a wonderfully supported club. And well done to them

No wonder they sold out, would do anything to get out of Sunderland for the day. A bit like Burnley, just slightly bigger.

Sunderlands Metro area population is around 370k so i would say that is quite a good catchment area for fans
