That last paragraph

Those ‘Welcome to’ videos and even the comments in existing videos are pure

RTG having a bit of where were you when something happened: The event in question? You're thinking it must be pretty historic, right? Nah, just a 'where were you?' when Dyer and Bowyer threw a couple of punches at each other against Villa.

Scored both goals in 2-0 derby win once. So aye, two fingers from a Sunderland fan indeed...

It's incredible.

They better hope that their season goes as they expect or that T-shirt could be a decent seller further up north. 'Pleasures' indeed.

We could still do with shifting another keeper tbf. Blob please although Darlow is more marketable.

Get in.

Aye, I remember Gavin Peacock going to Chelsea in the summer of 1993 for similar reasons. Absolutely no ill feeling towards Hayden.

Homesick cunt.

Wey, if it was Ashley's phone number I'd be dialling myself.

Aye, Twitter is enough like. Nee need to promote his phone number (I know it will already be in the public domain anyway) as there’ll always be some that go too far.

There’s probably a clause in saying he can’t manage for 12 months if he chucks it.

Kevin Ball He was absolutely fucking rotten. Surprised they haven't went for John 'studs' Kay mind, who's claim to fame was kicking a goalkeeper in the head after missing a penalty.

Remember when we had loads of them? Mostly shite like but Marveaux, de Jong, Wijnaldum, Ayoze, etc. Halcyon days...

Was Mbemba one of the ones amortised in the £30m?

MAKE IT RAIN! j/k free transfer replacement pls.

Probably think they're going to piss the league now. Aye, even though the mantra was ‘results don’t matter in friendlies’ when they wilted against Darlo.

Ashley will be buzzing when he hears what has happened to our fan base if this board is anything to go by, such division after so little time considering where we were when the season ended. It’s exactly what he wants, our support fractured and not pulling in the same direction.

What a melt.

I don't actually think he's taking money out of the club, not in a direct way anyway. In the past it was relatively easy for a club like Newcastle to just be kept ticking over in mid table mediocrity, that was the sweet spot for him in terms of risk/cost vs. reward. That is now much more difficult and expensive to do and I think he now sees the 'sweet spot' as yo-yoing between the Premier League and Championship. In the past his model was to do just enough to stay in the Premier League, saving a pot of money to spend in January if/when relegation looks possible. I think he's now intentionally running the club as yo-yo club, he will not spend while in the Premier League but will save a pot of money to spend on ensuring we get back first time if/when we are relegated. Can't see this being true, considering we miss out on £50-60m of revenue (taking into account the 1st parachute payment) if we get relegated. Ashley absolutely would take 17th each season but his willingness to throw money at the problem (in 2013 and 2016) if we are in trouble shows he doesn't want to get relegated in my mind.

I’m not sure if I support this Twitter movement, it’s a bit cringe. Definitely a fan of doing something but would prefer it to be in the manner of Pardew/Ashleyout.

Frank's been out of the game a while, sounds perfect.

:lol:
