Makems and Geordies produce classic derby

Here are 10 things that made today's TYNE-WEAR DERBY -- a 1-1 draw between NEWCASTLE and SUNDERLAND -- a true derby.
1
An early rash challenge and yellow card to set the tone.
2
Visiting team scores first via a disputed and/or "soft" penalty.
3
Eruption of pushing and shoving by players.
4
RED CARD!

5
Numerous, dubious calls for penalties.
6
Legitimate penalty for home side. Kick saved.
7
Opposing managers barking at each other on the touchline.
8
Eight yellow cards.
9
Supporters' undisguised hatred for opposing fans.
10
Ridiculously late equaliser by home side.
