Furious Sunderland supporters have turned on the club's hierarchy and questioned whether they understand the enormity of Saturday's Wear-Tyne derby after black and white signage was unveiled at the Stadium of Light.
More than 700 of Newcastle's 6,000 travelling fans are paying £600 a ticket for a hospitality seat in the Black Cats Bar.
However, images have emerged of the suite being decorated with black and white banners, including 'We are United' and 'Keep the black and white flying high'.
There is another image which suggests a 'Cheer up Peter Reid' slogan on a screen behind the bar.
