Yes I remember in the 2000’s playing you at home in League and cup and there was very little of this nonsense
Yes I remember in the 2000’s playing you at home in League and cup and there was very little of this nonsenseFirst off, I'll accept and expect the usual abuse, being a Sunderland fan.
Secondly, can we put the pathetic "rivalry' created by fans who don't even attend games to bed. Fact of the matter is, genuine Sunderland fans don't really care about a questionable action that may or may not have happened centuries ago.
FWIW, I actually don't mind Coventry as a club. I find similarities with ourselves. Both somewhat unfashionable clubs, in working class (some would say shithole) areas, but pretty genuine people who just like their footy.
You lot have had the better of us over recent years, and in general, I've not looked forward to playing you. Gyokeres was a tremendous player and Robins is up there with the best in the division.
Anyway, onto Saturday. I feel it will be a close match between two teams who try to play football in the right way. Haven't seen much of you this year, but can't help but feel you should be higher up in the table.
Are you lot feeling confident?
Going to my first ever match on Xmas Day.Let’s just call it a draw and move on to the two winnable home games that follow.
How many shit hoiking fans are we taking up there this time ? It’s an awful time of the year for travel, especially if the trains are disrupted.
Happy Christmas all, stay safe and have fun
Should get a good view you’ll have ground to yourself.Going to my first ever match on Xmas Day.
Lol I live in Bangkok and on Xmas day Port FC of Bangkok play Ratchaburi 7 pm ko , beer £ 1.70 a pint.Should get a good view you’ll have ground to yourself.
What a shockPleasantly surprised by this post and the responses, as most have said already, until the recent 1977 talk never heard of any rivalry before. Some say Cov started it? thats weird as why would we bring up a match from 1977?
anyhow on a similar post on the Sunderland forum you can see who has the issues with who.
Not a nice word in a 7 page post lol
In that documentary they seemed to like Chris Coleman for about 2 minutes and then hated his guts as the results got worse.Stop this fuckin love in,
Sunderland are a massive club, are they fuck.
We saw you crying on Netflix, comedy gold.
Hope we fuckin wallop you tomorrow
PUSB
Aren't you just doing what you're accusing a lot of their forum of doing? We all know that the vast majority of fans of all clubs are decent people. People on the internet can just hide behind their keyboard and spout sh*te. If you met a few people on holiday abroad, or over here, you wouldn't decide on whether you liked them by researching what team they follow, you'd base it upon their behaviour and whether you thought they had similar values/sense of humour as yourself. Every club has a large majority of decent people follow them, with a few tossers thrown in for good measure.Be friendly with them? nah, no thanks.
Clive Whitehead?Kick off was 7.30 at 7 there were hardly any Bristol fans in the ground can’t remember if it was all ticket but the police delayed the kick off 15 minutes and opened up the gates and Bristol fans poured in, thousands of them. Never mentioned but when we kicked off at 7.45 Sunderland were already 1-0 down.Everton got a second in the last minute sealing their fate.
We played Sunderland many times since never any issue re. the Bristol game ironically including a similar thing when we won at Spurs and they lost at Wimbledon on the last day which meant we stayed up and they were relegated.
That Spurs match also kicked off late due to crowd congestion think there were train issues and over 10000 Cov trying to get in.
All this crap started about 10/15 years ago when a Sunderland key board warrior took it on himself to blame our chairman Jimmy Hill for the Bristol issue.
Also one thing that’s never mentioned is at 2-2 Bristol brought on a youngster in the final minutes and he hit a 30 yard thunder bolt which crashed against the underside of the bar bounced on the line and somehow didn’t go in, thankfully no line technology in those days I was behind that goal and it looked more in than not.
don't really care about a questionable action that may or may not have happened centuries ago
Yes it was, turned out to be a good player for them.Clive Whitehead?
Better get that charging network completed or Vehicles will be obsolete!‘Peugeot shagging inbreds’
Had to chuckle at that on their forum. We have designed and built all manner of automotive stuff over the last 100 years when they and their forefathers were tossing off about building ships….they put together a few Nissans and all of a sudden we are the ones having sex with non British cars.
will be very happy to get a draw but got a bad feeling!! Hope I’m wrong
Lol I live in Bangkok and on Xmas day Port FC of Bangkok play Ratchaburi 7 pm ko , beer £ 1.70 a pint.
anyone else at Forest a couple of years later , when i seem to remember Summerbee cracking in a 20 yarder , after being called something that rhymes with banker, every time he touched the ball, that day, because of the Froggat incident.I hate Sunderland because
1 summerbee ending froggats career
2 Kevin Kyle
3 Peter Reid
but as they never beat us it’s always good to have them in the same division
Bit of luck a load will get nicked and banned.Sunderland are to play a certain little team just over the water from them in the cup ( The barcodes ) I believe is one of the politer terms they use for NUFC….so in the grand scheme of things this little rivalry tomorrow will pale into insignificance.
Maybe we could take advantage whilst they have eyes elsewhere
This is silly generalised nonsense.I'd rather keep my opinion of sunderland to myself , your fans spoke about us like we were pieces of shit on their shoe and lauded the nazi bombing of the city .. whatever coventry fans have done to yours in recent years in thoroughly deserved .. cheers

It's not just a couple of rogue Sunderland forumites that have raised the German bombings. In their current thread, a guy by the user name "Swindon on Tour" also implies that the Third Reich should have done more to our city.
I have been vocal on here and on the RTG forum about this fucking stupid rivalry. I can't believe adults would act like this and use words that hurt more than just a minority. And this is on both forums. Two clubs that have zero in common other than we are in the same league at the same time. If it's because they're footballing rivals, why don't we (or they) have threads on Norwich, Preston, Sheffield United or Huddersfield. All are in the same league, all aiming for the same league positions. Injuries happen, we don't throw insults or have pages long threads on Man Utd for what happened to Dave Busst.
Time to grow up people. Be the bigger, more mentally superior person and walk away from the insults. Hopefully Sunderland can take the same approach and we'll return to watching good football between two good teams with NONE of the added animosity.
I couldn't give a flying fuck ya wet fart , me and you don't need to communicate at allThis is silly generalised nonsense.
‘whatever coventry fans have done to yours in recent years in thoroughly deserved ‘
Oh dear. Embarrassed for you.
This is what keyboard ‘hard man’ is really like.I couldn't give a flying fuck ya wet fart , me and you don't need to communicate at all
An absolute persistence in talking shit and you know fuck all about football .. be gone
Let's get it right though , Sunderland fans created this rivalry then got extremely upset that coventry fans acted on their complete disrespect and threats towards us , the rememberance garden and the Jimmy Hill statue ... Sunderland fans can say they never said these things , however the security officer and the police along with the club saw it fit to put tarp all around the rememberance garden
This is what keyboard ‘hard man’ is really like.
A Coward.
Pathetic.
