I remember a FNF game down at Filbert St against Manchester United where 20,000 turned up to watch. This is what they were hoping with this,I just don’t think it’s quite happened. Anyone know the biggest attendance for an academy game in the competition. I think I went to that, did Scholes play for Utd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing big time about Sunderland is the stadium and fans. In every other way you're a L1 club. I would have thought Sunderland would have used their status to attract players who would normally go to lower to mid table Championship clubs but you sign L1 players on L1 wages so no wonder you seem like an average L1 club. Shit owners again who talk a good game but not willing to go above and beyond. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some would turn up to a final but is that worth it for one league one team (if that...). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OntarioFox Posted 6 November 2019 Share Posted 6 November 2019 (edited) Just to say, my god how sh*t must it be to be a Sunderland fan right now? It's frankly embarrasing for any senior side to lose to a youth team, let alone one of the supposed caliber of the Black Cats. As much as I disagree with them ever having cheapened the "Johnstone's Paint Trophy" (or whatever the Fuchs it's called nowadays) by letting in Academy sides, our young guns seem to be a rare case of a youth team taking this competition seriously. My Dad is still bitter about travelling up the M1 to see us bottle this competition against Rotherham back in the League 1 season when they played at the Don Valley (he still maintains it would have been the "easiest double we'd ever win"), so as tinpot as it is, silverware is silverware and I hope we go all the way for his sake.

UpTheLeagueFox Posted 7 November 2019 Share Posted 7 November 2019 Wouldn't surprise me if Dewsbury-Hall goes out on loan soon. Think it would be good for his development. We might have to fund part of his wages though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
