Former Newcastle United goalkeeper Tim Krul has endeared himself once again to the Toon Army following a cheeky social media jibe against Sunderland. The ex-Magpies shot-stopper is seemingly a fan of the Netflix series Sunderland 'Til I Die, judging by his recommendation of the show to international colleague Jurrien Timber.
Krul spent 12 years on Tyneside before making a permanent switch to Brighton in 2017. The Netherlands international made 184 appearances for United, including a memorable debut in the UEFA Cup victory over Palermo, before falling out of favour under Rafa Benitez.
Krul was no stranger to the Tyne-Wear derby, and clearly could not resist an opportunity to fire a dig at the Black Cats on Twitter. Ajax defender Timber, who has been tipped to join Arsenal this summer, had asked supporters to social media over a new TV series to watch, and Krul suggested Sunderland 'Til I Die as the 'most entertaining series around'.
