My first derby I was about 17 and couldnt believe the noise the Mags made. I've seen 100s of games since but that game sticks in my mind for every player wanting it so bad. Every player gave a 10/10 performance. Owers was special that night. Great memories.
I was there 18 and in the Leazes End. I had been at St. James earlier in the season when Marco scored but the atmosphere was nothing like this night. It still stands as one of the greatest nights of my Sunderland supporting life. Pandemonium when the 2nd goal went in. The bus back was like a rave. 70 year old men with walking sticks were dancing in the aisles. A special night.
I enjoyed myself that night I was one of them standing on the barriers after Marco scored. Walking down to the train station singing Wembley was the best winding the thick heeds up. It was as funny as out we could see starting to get to the halfway line & they started to stop running then jogging then walking to a stop cos we were just bouncing singing our heeds off. I wish they got to us cos we were about half a metre below the pitch they'd have been dragged in & pummeled. We knew it, it was hilarious one of the best nights of life. There was 4 & half thousand of us & it was 99% all 18 to 30 year olds who were just taking the piss Happy days.
He was having a good old jump on that manky shirt. 3rd pitch incursion of the game. Should have been a 10 point deduction, would have meant relegation next season😂
Gates and gabbiadini had a brilliant partnership ! The g force we called them , the skill and guile of Eric and the power and pace of gabbiadini were one of the best partnerships I’ve seen at Sunderland , they were perfect for each other. Happy memories.
Ipswich fan also, love Eric Gates. Ugly as sin but my god what skills. Used to frighten me as he ran to the old north stand in the early eighties., you could hear the cries of "esmerelda" from the town fans behind me. (It's a hunchback of Notre Dame reference)
"G force' Fantastic night, 8 pints in the New Derby, bus through, standing squashed and tightly packed mid terrace right behind the goal Leazes End......I remember Gabiadini's winning goal, at the time, watching it as it happened from immediately behind the net, the ball seemed to take ages to find it's way into the far corner of the net.....but you just knew it was going in as it bounced it's way past Burridge cos he was far too close to his goal line..... Yippee!😁
I was there , what a night ! Went to the final at Wembley aswell , what a letdown, we didn’t turn up , we did get promoted because of Swindon doing something dodgy with their accounts. Lol
I was there!! 8 years old in the Milburn paddock with me dad... Remember him picking me up & we left the ground when the fans started running on the pitch. Scared shitless I was. 😂
Ha ha! Love it after the final whistle and the mag runs to the centre circle and takes off his gravy stained NUFC top, throws it on the ground and junps on it! 😆😆😆
All them mags running on the pitch , then a line of plod came on , no horses , and it’s hold me back hold me back while scurrying back into the gallowgate 😂😂😂😂
that ref was the father of a lad on my carpentry course at college, George courtney from sunderland ! lol. best ever derby win that oh fantastic. and we still went up that season hehe.
A multi billionaire needs to buy Sunderland They have the following and if they ever made it back to pL. players would be lining up to sign and bet he payers that brought them back to bat inks attention and relevance. Stadium of light sold out no matter what Easy. You sign 3 stars and produce 3 stars. Make it a 4-5 year process. Like I did in FIFA lol. Top 4 in PL !! Might make champions league !! Lol
I was on a ship with a Newcastle supporter as an AB. After our victory I had to keep a muted response. Any sign that I was celebrating would have been met with violence at the cost of his job. This is the difference between Sunderland and Newcastle supporters. We can accept defeat and move on. They can not.
I was there amongst the Newcastle fans in the Milburn stand . Had to pretend to be a toon fan haha. What this footage didn't show at the end was the sad mags pulling down a goalpost. Sour grapes eh,!
@@ArtbyJoeH I didn't see that mate I bet That was scary In there end 😱ive had a few scary moments when we've played the rags I remember me mate was buzzing when he came in school after that result.
@@mcfcste99 in the seats , was ok but felt like Ripley on the Alien spacecraft! We scored (twice!) I had to stay silent . So hard ! That fan near the end that runs in our h and starts jumping up and down on his toon Top hahaha
Imagine todays superstars playing on pitches like that! 😅😅 NUFC fan here and all the derby stuff to one side i hope yous keep ahold of Jack Clarke and push on this season and get promoted the prem isnt the same with out the tyne wear and tyne tees derbys
Saddest I have ever been leaving the ground but if we had won we wouldn't have got Sir John Hall in and the Keegan years wouldn't have happened so thanks for that.
taffy were you at wembley in 1985 ? that was out of this world the atmosphere, but that was a night as good as winning the f a cup, when you think we have never been 2nd in the premier league/europe but an amazing run for the 6 on the trot as well. We might play them next season yet.
As a young safc fan and my first Derby this night will be remembered forever. After seeing the 6 in a row which I could only dream of, I think I have seen it all. Derby's are good but not like they were, although where Sunderland are now it might never happen again. Lost interest now

I was there too. What a night. One of the best ever supporting Sunderland , love it when we beat the skunks ! 🔴⚪️👍
@@venustus129 well it will be along time till you do it again. You won't get of championship and we are heading for top tier of Premier league
@@Willsey obsessive behaviour
Sunderland so much more composed than the mags, calm footballing their way to the two goals...
That Aways end looks mint when the second goes in
Best night of my life in the Leaszes end with the Shields branch and all my best mates.
Love the Newcastle fan stamping on his shirt in the centre circle right at the end
Still reading 'Janet and John ' are we David? What a bizarre comment.
He was having a good old jump on that manky shirt. 3rd pitch incursion of the game. Should have been a 10 point deduction, would have meant relegation next season😂
I’m aIpswich fan and loved watching the clips ,great atmosphere and Eric Gates still had it.

@@marksims3904 yes mate he was no Omar Sharif.
@@jasonparfitt5936 We had some ugly sods then, Eric Gates, John Wark was no oil painting. Steve Mccall had no front teeth either!
Great day great night whatever goonswarmy .... say that was our day . Most important north east derby E V E R to date .

I was there. Obviously my favourite away game of all time . Beat the mags to go to Wembley - priceless 👌
I was too, sitting in the Milburn stand with the mags! So hard to stay silent when we scored.... twice
Fan right at the end in the centre circle 🤣🤣🤣
Christ 30 years ago.... taking me back to spending my paper round money on getting in to the fulwell end for £3...
I was there , what a night ! Went to the final at Wembley aswell , what a letdown, we didn’t turn up , we did get promoted because of Swindon doing something dodgy with their accounts. Lol

We always fuck up the mags hopes and dreams 😂😂😂FTM
i was there this day in the scoreboard end gallowgate . electrifying atmosphere.
Pure satisfaction north east boss wear red white t shirt.
I was 8 years old in the Milburn paddock. Remember my dad taken me out once the fans ran on the pitch.
One of the best nights of my life FTM 🔴⚪🔴⚪
FTM !
Nice combination for the second goal. From Gates and Gabbiadini to Grigg and Graham...what the hell happened?
two years later we transform after Kyril takes over and our new era begins
Ha ha! Love it after the final whistle and the mag runs to the centre circle and takes off his gravy stained NUFC top, throws it on the ground and junps on it! 😆😆😆
AHH, the good old days when Sunderland USED to be a good football club.
spoke to eric gates some years later he mentioned this match and said it was the quickest he d ever ran to get off the pitch haha.
wonderful game.Gabiadini was an absolute star.
Newcastle, a massive club in Newcastle.
Happy days 👍
All them mags running on the pitch , then a line of plod came on , no horses , and it’s hold me back hold me back while scurrying back into the gallowgate 😂😂😂😂
wot a night remember it well i was behind the goal leazes end
Big boys the mags invade pitch and none even tred to get through to sunderland fans. Stopped on halfway line.
5000 on the pitch and still couldn't score😂
Was there best night of my life stuck in the ground for around an hour at the end unforgettable night
A brilliant day out. Xxx
Was there mags put bus window out and a got hit with a pie still great day
I was there that night in the scoreboard,I collected about 5 pound in change ,off the pitch ,that was thrown at the coppas
1000 defenders on the pitch and they still couldnt stop gates and gabbiadini ftm
that ref was the father of a lad on my carpentry course at college, George courtney from sunderland ! lol. best ever derby win that oh fantastic. and we still went up that season hehe.
He was from spennymoor, friend of my dad. I played football with him as a kid, he was a gentleman
Electric atmosphere at these games
six in a row and always better in the major important games like play offs, league cup ties ect ect ect lol

Great to see this again after so many years. You have to wonder what might have happened if the NUFC fans hadn't invaded the pitch?

This is the difference between Sunderland and Newcastle supporters. We can accept defeat and move on. They can not.
The steward celebrating the second as well 🤣 the 90’s must have been one hell of an era for football fans
There seems to have been some kind of force field present when them Mags reached the half way line.
It was called northumbria police😂😂
@@England.123.N.U.F.C.
No it was their usual “let me at em” bravado then their arses dropping out.
So they run half way up the pitch try to look rock hard In front of our fans then run back 😅😅😅
Invisible wall at the half way line there...
A solid wall of plod.
Loved standing 😢
I miss derbies like this
some things never change
George courtney ref was my sports teacher in junior school in the early 70s great bloke
I remember watching this my mate at school was a big Sunderland fan wasn't there a pitch invasion at the end

Saddest I have ever been leaving the ground but if we had won we wouldn't have got Sir John Hall in and the Keegan years wouldn't have happened so thanks for that.
Your welcome, mate. Happy to beat you at St. James anytime. I'm glad it made you happy.
"Unseemly behaviour from a club with a proud tradition", er, of invading the pitch when loosing - Nottingham Forest 1974.

Well said Terry we need a striker
Safc in black and white top clapping as Gates scores.😊
Such a shame to see the Mackems today, floundering about in the Third Division and hoping to somehow avoid going into administration.
the g force
Look at that scruff at 14:59
Today that would be some kid with a fake stone island jumper and shit haircut

Typically BBC Look North invasion mainly by Newcastle fans!!!
And People ask " why dont U go Football anymore "
How did it go at Wembley smb
🎻 🎻 we went up despite the result FTM
There's some Orcs on the pitch. They're trying to make it all over. IT IS NOW 🤣
1974 v Forest they invaded the pitch and the same here. How unsporting
FTM. Always.....
Before the African invasion 😂
