Some odd comments on here. A very comfortable afternoon. Barely got out of 2nd gear and didn't need to, Derby were absolutely dogshit.

Aye. Sympathise with the indifference to this game from some, but now it's matchday, fuck it and get up there. What else you gonna do on a wet Saturday in January?

Never seen so many police at a city game

Thought I'd wait until this morning to buy tickets as there were loads left where I wanted to sit, but notice they have now closed blocks 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 and 21 to sales. It's almost like they don't want anyone at the game.

Heads up for anyone who drinks at Bull and Anchor before the game, don't bother as they are closing the pub in next 30 mins.

Most clubs have a bumper gate between Christmas and New Year. That's very much on trend. Sunderland's 3 lowest home turn outs this season have been in their last 3 games.

The whole thing is a nonsense and makes no sense. The way that taking an LFT is seen as some sort of compromise when actually it is by far the most sensible measure. A recent negative test trumps a meaningless QR code when most of the current spread is through vaccinated people in any case...

When I say 'a lot', I'm not suggesting a majority or anything close to it. I've just being going for a long time and know that traditionally the last home game before Christmas is a shit turnout. Crowds will be down across the country this weekend, but don't ask me to explain it, although I...

Well indeed, don't get it myself, but people do. There are ST holders around me who aren't there half the time.

15% actually. Either way, Derby won't be bringing much to this game in any case.

Think they will easily. They have before, it will appeal to their day trippers and they can pull out a very big following every now and again.

Thursday they have the Comedy Club I think, so sounds like that is going well.

Looks like being the lowest home turn out for a good while. Last weekend before Xmas traditionally sees low attendances. On top of a low overall gate, I can see a lot of season ticket holders giving it a swerve and there will be a lot of empty seats. A bit like Huddersfield yesterday, nothing...

It doesn't have to be busy all the time to make money. I've spoke to people who have been there when it's been very busy. I've booked the upstairs room for a family event next year and the calendar was quite full when trying to book. Knowing some of the ale heads invited to that we'll be...

It really is embarrassing just how bad our local force are at policing football matches. Football liason officers from other clubs must rock up here and wonder what the fuck is going on. Four blocks of segregation, fans kettled behind steel fences outside. Stupid ticket restrictions. When are...

Could have been the Brewer and Baker. What a boozer that was. Sticky floors and a whiff of despair. Loved that place.

Those were the things I liked about it. Like a bit of squalor in a football ground. Worst feature was, like every new ground, stands are miles from the pitch. It seems the penny has finally dropped and someone has given the architects a dry slap. The newest grounds, Brentford and Spurs for...

I have heard it sung ironically once or twice.. but still shit regardless.

Don't really get uptight about this sort of thing, but I do tend to agree. Three I'd like to see the back of: 1. Shithole, wanna go home... 2. Your mum is a ***** fan (wtf is this all about) 3. Ohhhh... you're shit ahhhhhhh at goalkicks (proper Leicester level, happy clappy 80s tinpottery).

This is Chelsea, they were allocated 5200 which was widely reported. West Ham only had the few seats empty in this image for segregation extra, but it's no more than 500-600 max.
