But we have to be fair and give both sides of the story.
We may mock, humiliate, and simply take the piss out of the red and white scum, but it's always decent and honourable to let them put THEIR point of view.
So, now then, Phil Bardsley - what was it like to go to St James' Park and shit yer pants?
Phil Bardsley (Sunderland midfielder): "I'm absolutely shattered and gutted for everyone.
"I can't justify what happened out there. We simply didn't turn up. I'm absolutely gutted.
"The fans will be too. It's a bad day for the club, a bad result. Too many players did not turn up.
"It's a big occasion and one you expect players to turn up in - we didn't and played the price.
"It went wrong from the first minute. We had to come out and pressure the ball and we didn't.
"We need to get in tomorrow, get ourselves right and get ourselves into shape for the Stoke game on Saturday."
