Gateshead International Stadium sounds grand but it’s a soulless place to watch football as it’s an athletics venue.
The spectators are miles away from the pitch, and because there are so few of them (6-800 whenever I’ve been) it’s quiet as the grave. Any away fans numbering more than a few dozen will be sent round to side opposite to the main stand which is even worse.
GP is like the Nou Camp in comparison!

Wait until you’re watching us away at Gateshead next season.
Then you’ll know what a shite stadium looks like!
As per my previous post on this thread, you don’t offer a reason why these supporters are stayaways.
Can’t just be a fear of catching Covid can it?
Alcy makes a good point.
Maybe the club was talking to other players before the window opened. But for various reasons the deals didn’t materialise and Hill had to scrat around late on.
The speed the Loft transfer went through would back this up, and didn’t we have a replacement lined up?
As for the reasons why the signings didn’t happen – answers on a postcard!

Good job we didn’t sign Calvin Andrew then!

It’s ironic that if we had home crowds like yesterday more often our budget would be higher meaning we could attract better players.
Some truth in that, but you don’t give the reasons for why we don’t get 5k gates.
Could the poor fare on offer be anything to do with it? Bad recruitment, a lack of goals (or indeed, goal mouth action), zero chance of seeing a victory.
A hardcore 2000 will turn up, but 5000? You’re having a laugh!
Point of order, we haven’t been relegated yet. Steve McQueen is revving up as we speak…
Who forgot to put the petrol in yesterday?

Aye NI, add Duane Holmes to the list. Well taken goal today.
Duane was already on this weekend’s list. Along with Billy Sharp, Lyle Taylor, Ivan Toney, Matt Crooks and even Luke bloody Waterfall!
I’d say you can’t win matches with only one shot on target, but Oldham managed it!
BTW BS, we last won on Boxing Day, not November 23rd.
Not half as sick as the rest of us!

Nice try, but it’s still a complete shit-show!

Wave the white flag and surrender gracefully!
Our replacements could well be Stockport County.
Paddy got the winner that took them top. Hippo came on for the last twenty.
From the PL down into non-league, ex-Irons are still finding the back of the net. Meanwhile we couldn’t hit a bovine backside with a certain stringed instrument!
Dark days!

New…old manager bounce!

Do they still send out e mails prior to each home game?
I got my last one on 21/1/22.
A bit on Hackney being a naughty boy.
General stuff on the transfer window followed by even more general stuff on the campaign for safe standing! Not really something that affects SUFC.More emphasis on National campaigns and very little really on our current predicament, that is obviously worsening by the week.
Slightly disappointing if truth be told, although there is an AGM later this month: –
The Iron Trust AGM is being arranged for 7pm on Wednesday 23 February. It will be held, (Covid allowing), at Brumby Hall Social Club. Members will receive the calling notice and associated papers during the first week of next month. We received three nominations for the three vacancies on the board which means that there is no need for an election, but that the nominations of David Beverley, Steve Hawes and Jake Stockdale will have to be ratified at the AGM.
I won’t be making the 300+ miles round trip. Anyone on here going!

He could start by reviving the “Unity” badge on next season’s shirt.
Whichever is the one nobody votes for!

What does he reckon about the PL?
I’ve some Newcastle fans to take the piss out of on Friday.
Barrow winning tonight didn’t do us any favours!
Life can be cruel, but I think Green and Hippolyte have had a bit of an education at Scunny.
They now know that EFL L2 is a tough old place to play football.
They were unfortunate to come to GP at the time of the club’s nadir, and there’s no hiding place.
I wish them both luck.

Uh-huh!
And get injured…..!
And let’s not forget the “one hump or two?” culture, courtesy of the late Frank Worthington’s biography.
The only thing left for present day players to do in their spare time is get another tattoo.
And the Chinese equivalent of the FA are banning that!

Shows how far we’ve fallen when we’re disappointed to see a Sunday League footballer like Hippo leave!
Green likewise.
It just leaves Turan as the turd that won’t flush away!
Easier to shift that oil stain off your driveway!
Well, one and a half!
Who the feck is Rekiel Pyke?
Just said that out loud.
Mrs NI said she thought it was a bowel disorder!
Going to a football club maybe?
