My weekend report Sunderland

When this fixture came out the thought of travelling through the night for a 12 o clock kick off was not a good one. So we looked into flying up and we had a cracking deal. Fly up Saturday morning 2 nights in the e
Premiere inn and fly back monday morning all for £98. Bargain !!.

Two of us was going myself and CCFC Chris who is on this board. Chris stayed Friday night with me and the Wife and it was up early for the trip to Bristol Airport flying up really bloody early. When the plane took off I fell asleep and woke as we were landing. Tidy.
The plan for Saturday was to spend the day with Lads from Middlesbrough who was playing home to Barnsley. After a couple of hours on the train we arrived at Borough and was met by a Lad called Pete who then took us to there local. We were introduced to a man Mountain called Mick and fair play he was a top bloke.we was treated like royalty and we was excepted as part of there group.
Now one thing that was evedent was the closeness of these Lads. Middlesborough is a small Town which explains a lot. But these lads also raise many thousands for charity and last year they raised 13K for the MS Society. And two of there Lads are deaf and all these Lads know sign language. That is so cool.
We was even offered a roof over our heads if we wanted to stay with them but we had to check in our Hotel so we bid them all farewell. Over the next two Days a lot of these Lads was sending us Friends requests and now my Friends list looks like something out of crimewatch We left Middlesbrough around 7 and it was safe to say we were hammered.
We then went back to Newcastle checked in the Hotel and then it was back out.

The Day of the game and we get on the Metro to the Stadium of light and to be fair is a nice ground. The away end is now in the gods but its a cracking view.
After the game it was into Newcastle and into O Neils where we met up with a Stag do from Nottingham and fair play they were a mad bunch. They had this ga.e where if they drop a fifty pence piece in your drink you have to put on this Rey Mysterio mask and down the drink in one. I just bought a pint then plop. The results or the video is on my wall.
After we went to Shearers bar which is now called number 9 and as they say in Newcastle we got absolutely mortal. Drinking Lagers and Jager bombs.we watched two games and even in Newcastle they have Geordies supporting Liverpool.

We then decided to get some BBQ ribs and the last Metro to our Hotel. Now I have to say now we was both out of our trees and we got on the train and as soon as I got on the doors shut behind us and the train took off sending me bowling down tbe carriage like a bowling ball BBQ ribs flying everywhere and I came to rest at the end of the carriage in a heap and my back was in agony. People looking at me like what the fook did you just do ? I was covered from head to toe in sauce and then the train stopped and for some unkown reason we got off. Why I dont know but now we was in the middle of nowhere me still covered and my back in half, I was as mobile as Kenwyn Jones. Dont worry we had a number of a Taxi but both our phones were dead
So now we are wandering, no staggering around for about 15 then this Taxi appeared and we hailed it and got back.

In the morning my back is now in agony and at the airport they charged a fiver for iburofen. To be fair apart from the game we had a belter. Good company and stupid amounts of booze consumed. Great way to end our away days in the Prem for me.

Quality report Steve. Sounds like a good weekend

Nukes, Great to hear you and Chris enjoyed yourselves with the Boro lads etc.

Just a pity City let us all down once again.
