Sick of hearing about "poor Arsenal" or "belegered Arsenal." Yeah, those long suffering Arsenal fans, must be hell for them. Also see Liverpool last season.

A bit like saying "This is the funniest episode of Miranda I've ever seen." But a fair enough analysis all the same.

Don't mind as long as they don't ream us.

Expect that moment to feature on thus season's "I wuz theyr" advert.

They've got a thread about it, as if it shows that the only reason they've beaten us once in the last decade is MAG REFS! Why is Mag their favoured word for us by the way? They use it more than we do to refer to ourselves, I quite like it as a nickname. Guess when you talk about a team as much as those lot it makes sense to use as short a name as possible.

Who do we want to win? Do we want to avoid Norwich or chase Stoke?

Wasn't the elbow from Raylor about waist height? Was a comment on my FB status. First reply from another mag "Northeast Brawler Champions 2011 - eat it you yorkshire fake cockney fuck."

It's basically what gives us the upper hand even in times of crisis. "Cannit wait man, we're gonna batter them, hope it's 4 or 5 nil, fancy such and such for a hat trick, we're going got Europe, they're a yo-yo team" Then five minutes into the game "Shit, why haven't we scored? They've had a shot! Why aren't we all over them? How come there are two teams in the game? Fuck, what if we don't win? FUCKS SAKE CLEAR IT SHOOT TACKLE HIM BOO! What if we lose, PANIC PANIC BRUCE MAN WHAT ARE YOU DOING WHY DID HE MISS THAT SHOT, IS HE A MAG?! IT'S BECAUSE BRUCE IS A MAG! FUCK OFF STEWARD ARE YOU A FUCKING MAG? BET ALL THESE COPPERS ARE MAGS, AND THE MEDIA! THE REF'S A FUCKING MAG! AM I A MAG?! Wait, blacked out for a second there. Ah, fuck, we've lost again."

I'd be amazed I'd such rumours didn't exist considering what Moyes has been saying. Consider it pretty unlikely mind.

Just got this from a Spurs fan: I've just watched the highlights and winning that game is nowt to be proud of. It looked to me like 22 cloggers in a shit kicking contest! How there was only 1 red is beyond me. Not including Larsson's goal keeping. Cabaye and Cattermole should have walked and if Ryan Taylor had caught Gyan with the elbow he swung he'd have gone as well.

After we beat them 4-1 they were lining up to give us "2-1" gestures

Love the fact their board is named after 'their song'. We've got a 19th century Geordie folk song in local dialect and in having a non-football song we're part of a select group of teams like West Ham and Liverpool. Sunderland choose their song from something like this http://www.capitalcateringsupplies.co.uk/Now_36_cd.jpg

If he's as good as we imagine then let's hope he'll repay our patience with some loyality and have a good innings with us rather than go the Owen route.

The idea of us meeting an asking price seems bizarre to me. Surely we'll try some funny business.

Understandably, considering how often Wes Brown and Tackle Me Elmo ran down blind alleys or straight into a challenge.

Why don't they just play 'hoof ball' and beat us then? Oh, guess they're too classy and they'd rather lose while paying their silky smooth Barcelonaesque passing game. No surprise teams of cloggers have won the league every season since 2002 then...

It's OK, the complete self confidence is back already http://www.readytogo.net/smb/showthread.php?t=619624

Let them argue. The FA wont see it that way and it wont change the result Of course not! They're in the pockets of the magedia!

Would you have preferred the ref to have seen the handball, them have 10 men for most of the match and cruise to a comfortable 2-0 or 3-0 win (with their lot convinced that 11 v 11 they would have won) or to be denied the pen/sending off and beat them anyway?

Must have got louder outside the ground on 85 minutes?

He's smiling It's just wind.

Pardew refusing to moan about the handball off the line. Just shows how much class Newcastle have compared to Sunderland - cheating, fooling the referee and having players sent off for violent conduct.
