It isn't really hard to understand or horrendous... I'm guessing it's been done because the 9 doesn't justify a 15 minute service from Jarrow-Sunderland so they reduced it to 20 so they had to do something to change it.
Every 30 minutes North Shields-Jarrow
Every 20 minutes Jarrow-Sunderland
Not sure why it makes a different which runs the bus does either.
