Maybes Posted 31 December 2006 Share Posted 31 December 2006 So, after a drunken new year celebration, one has to drag themselves to the football. Not a very good idea is it? I will expect many people will be worse for wear tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asha Posted 31 December 2006 Share Posted 31 December 2006 So, after a drunken new year celebration, one has to drag themselves to the football. Not a very good idea is it? I will expect many people will be worse for wear tomorrow Maybe the idea was to help cut the drinkers out in town etc. but i doubt it will work at all. Could be a low attendance if most people either fall asleep while driving to the game or fall foul of the hangover. Could be quite amusing though if some drunken person in the sunderland crowd decides to celebrate our three goals (because we'll win 3-0) and get beaten up by the rest of their fans. ...

Asha Posted 31 December 2006 Share Posted 31 December 2006 Hats off to the sunderland fans that will make the treck down on news years day....thats commitment. true, they'll get about 5 minutes sleep before heading to our ground. On New Year's day it should only be derby's. E.g. West Brom v Birmingham Stoke v Wolves Leicester v Derby Ipswich v Norwich Plymouth v Southampton etc otherwise the distance is just two long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC Prussian Posted 31 December 2006 Share Posted 31 December 2006 I love this time of the year in terms of football. A tight schedule where all the teams are challenged to put all their efforts into each game, a real good fitness test. And even the smaller clubs have a better chance of biting one of the bigger one's legs and getting a surprise win out of it. Just like the Blades did with ARSEnal.

That would have happened anyway, Arsenal are crap. Besides, Arsenal just can't handle that type of footballing condition - rough ugly football pitches playing against rough ugly footballers. Back on topic... at least you have until the afternoon to sort yourself out before the game. What would the attendance be like if it was a lunchtime game...

I'm not sure how many they are bringing but your right they usually bring alot from what I can remember. As some people said earlier it will take alot of loyal support to bring 3,000 on New Years Day with it being a long trip and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
