The rivalry between Newcastle United and Sunderland is as strong as ever, and while Newcastle’s season may be disintegrating into insignificance, at least the Black Cats failed to win the Capital One Cup final against Manchester City and look set to exit the Premier League once more.
We’re always looking to get one up on each other, so it will come as a surprise to many that Sunderland are leaving Newcastle in their wake in new football quiz.
Knowing a football team inside out can take time, especially for younger fans without memories stretching back several decades, but you’d like to think you had a decent knowledge of your football team.

A quiz asked how well do you know your team, with 10 different questions spanning every facet of the club. The test by caught quite a few out.
As you’ll see by the table above, Newcastle fans are languishing down in 19th place, with Sunderland supporters a handful of places above…
So, are Sunderland’s fans really cleverer than Newcastle’s?
