Wearing toon jersey to a Sunderland friendly yesterday

ShearerGeordie

Well how are ye doing? Did anyone happen to make it to Thomond Park for Sunderland v Munster XI, which was set up for Shane Geogheghan?

The match was alrite, played in good spirit, with Sunderland edging a 2-1 win. Although, being a die-hard Newcastle fan, I wore my Newcastle jersey to the game, and was waiting outside the stadium for a mate, when this really loud, aggressive (perhaps langers) got in my face, telling me to 'HONESTLY, take that **** off NOW!' I was later reported to the Gardai who had a word with me.

Honestly, I don't see what's wrong with a bit of friendly banter by wearing a Toon to a Sunderland friendly. Would you have perceived that as being disrespectful on my part or what?

It was an idiotic thing to do tbh! That's like wearing a city jersey to a united game.

Be like wearing
a rangers jersey to a celtic game,
a england jersey to an ireland game,
a baseball cap backwards and hockey jersey to a metal gig

You should be allowed wear that jersey if you want.

Out of interest which part of Newcastle are you originally from btw?

That was a really silly thing to do, I'm suprised the Guards let you into the ground.

Why were a soccer team playing a rugby team in a match?

What is this Bizarro World?

By toon, do you mean Newcastle United, elocuted in an excruciating faux-Gazza accent?

It's not that unusual. I take it you missed the World Cup Final last Sunday?

rubberdiddies

is there a new law banning the wearing of black and white striped jerseys all of a sudden?

OP should have been able to wear what he wanted and if a Garda really did have a word to him about it then that Garda needs to get his/her priorities right.

This was a friendly match!
