Appy Posted 8 May, 2013 Posted 8 May, 2013 Neither have we as far as I'm aware. We won't, not if we have been given the whole top tier anyway.
Sour Mash Posted 8 May, 2013 Posted 8 May, 2013 We won't, not if we have been given the whole top tier anyway. According to that 'Saintsfc Cop' on twitter our allocation is only 2,200, don't know how accurate he is.

xxiv Posted 8 May, 2013 Posted 8 May, 2013 nah only posh people in the North keep whippets, working men keep ferrets. Nah I work in Sunderland. Most places around the city they have bloody horses in there gardens. Been here over 10 years and still find it the strangest city in the north.
xxiv Posted 8 May, 2013 Posted 8 May, 2013 They really aren't confident about this game either or there chances of staying up although the mood lightened abit after Wigan lost last night.
Dr Who? Posted 8 May, 2013 Posted 8 May, 2013 Have a good feeling about this, as they will have the nerves. They will need a point, as will we, but I think we might nick it!
BlakeySFC Posted 8 May, 2013 Posted 8 May, 2013 (edited) Yep, 2 league goals - one for Tottenham vs Arsenal and one for Sunderland vs Aston Villa. Rose and Johnson are the kind of players that always do well against us. No doubt Danny Graham will also break his Sunderland goal duck against us Edited 8 May, 2013 by BlakeySFC
saints_is_the_south Posted 8 May, 2013 Posted 8 May, 2013 Their fans seem to think we'll only be taking about 500 up there so they are going to be a bit surprised when 2,000 of us roll up.
St. Neil Posted 8 May, 2013 Posted 8 May, 2013 Rose and Johnson are the kind of players that always do well against us. No doubt Danny Graham will also break his Sunderland goal duct against us I hope you will tape it if he does!
Matthew Le God Posted 8 May, 2013 Posted 8 May, 2013 No doubt Danny Graham will also break his Sunderland goal duct against us Sounds painful!
Maggie May Posted 9 May, 2013 Posted 9 May, 2013 Their fans seem to :uhoh:think we'll only be taking about 500 up there so they are going to be a bit surprised when 2,000 of us roll up. Not any more.
JRM Posted 9 May, 2013 Posted 9 May, 2013 fair play if we do take 2000 up there on a Sunday , quite a difference from when I last went on a Monday night in January 2003 when we won 1-0 and had about 150 fans there. hard game to call I think, if we play like we did at Spurs and actually take some of our chances I think we'll win but just doesn't seem to be happening for us at the moment so I'm going for a 0-0 draw. don't think our suspensions will affect us too much with Shaw in for Fox anyway but Sunderland seem to be missing some of their better players , Fletcher , Gardner , Sessegnon who else is out ?
pingwing Posted 9 May, 2013 Posted 9 May, 2013 don't think our suspensions will affect us too much with Shaw in for Fox anyway but Sunderland seem to be missing some of their better players , Fletcher , Gardner , Sessegnon who else is out ? Lee Catermole is out as well but I don't think he counts as a footballer....
positivepete Posted 9 May, 2013 Posted 9 May, 2013 Dont think Johnson is anything special. Shaw will have him in his pocket I reckon. Johnson set up the Sunderland goal in the home fixture. Too good a player to write off.
tajjuk Posted 9 May, 2013 Posted 9 May, 2013 Johnson set up the Sunderland goal in the home fixture. Too good a player to write off. He has quality but shown little of it over the season and that's partly the reasons they are where they are. He's has been very average for most of the season. It's funny the amount of abuse Gaston gets on here yet Johnson has probably been worse for them, cost similar amount, on more wages, yet from what I've seen on the Sunderland forums they don't seem to have a thread slagging him off every week.

He's English and therefore "knows the game" or "can put in a good tackle"...
Saint Garrett Posted 9 May, 2013 Posted 9 May, 2013 I'm not writing Johnson off, he's a 'good' player, but nothing special. Shaw should be able to deal with him.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 9 May, 2013 Author Posted 9 May, 2013 I'm not writing Johnson off, he's a 'good' player, but nothing special. Shaw should be able to deal with him. too right mate well said
grantsaint Posted 9 May, 2013 Posted 9 May, 2013 Glasgow Saint are you getting train from Edinburgh. Think we will nick this 2-1. Sunderland will be well up for it. Can't wait for this now. Where is everyone going pre match??
oldsarum Posted 9 May, 2013 Posted 9 May, 2013 I'm not writing Johnson off, he's a 'good' player, but nothing special. Shaw should be able to deal with him. Just hope Shaw has learned from Spurs game that you don't, unlees there is plenty of covering midfield players, let the likes of Bale / Johnson cut inside.
Saint Garrett Posted 9 May, 2013 Posted 9 May, 2013 Bale is considerably better than Johnson though, and I don't think we would have conceded that goal is Morgan was playing anyway.
saints-cris Posted 9 May, 2013 Posted 9 May, 2013 Bale is considerably better than Johnson though, and I don't think we would have conceded that goal is Morgan was playing anyway. Exactly what I said when I saw it, he would have perhaps been there to cover that area, stopping Bale cutting inside as easily. Anyway, I think theres a great chance to get something here. Sunderland are fairly solid at the back, but with almost all their goal threat gone we can nick this one. Providing we don't let Graham inevitably get his first for Sunderland.

Where is everyone going pre match?? driving down saturday as visiting / staying with mate in Newcastle.

kpturner Posted 10 May, 2013 Posted 10 May, 2013 Is anyone else flying up Sunday morning? I can't believe there will only be two of us
jasoneuelllfanclub Posted 10 May, 2013 Posted 10 May, 2013 SaintsfcCop @SaintsfcCop Only 1415 tickets sold out of the 2200 allocation for Sunderland. Considering it is a long trip and on a sunday a good turnout imo.
Pilchards Posted 10 May, 2013 Posted 10 May, 2013 Is anyone else flying up Sunday morning? I can't believe there will only be two of us No I'm going up there as I will be doing my maiden flight as a pilot. Wish me luck as I will be bricking myself.
Johnny Shearer Posted 10 May, 2013 Posted 10 May, 2013 Rose and Johnson are the kind of players that always do well against us. No doubt Danny Graham will also break his Sunderland goal duck against us For sure, I will stick a tenner on him to eb first goal scorer.
Graffito Posted 10 May, 2013 Posted 10 May, 2013 Di Canio compares his team to a small dog. “The fans give you extra adrenaline. We know what it means to play in front of 40,000 who push for you. “Even a chiwawa can become a rottweiler!” Doesn't he know they're Cats.
