No idea of how much wages Brighton were paying for his loan but he was on about 50K a week with us!

Merino's goal and Lascelles booting the post!

Rafa is NUFC's biggest asset - just look at the age of the first XI http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/60m-side-average-age-25-13639360#ICID=ios_ChronicleNewsApp_AppShare_Click_Other

Cracking draw!

He's pure sex! That Merino ditty hasn't caught on so how about a very unoriginal 'Mikel Merino' to the Jose Mourinho song? Shite I know but he needs a song!

Ha ha ha!

Wayne Rooney: the untold story... what really happened at Old Trafford http://dailym.ai/2x61izC

Ashley will deserve to be nuked if he forces this man to walk away!

One of Rafa's big things is a player's character so no surprise!

Ha ha ha!

Just looking at the recent matches on .com and this one; 2013/14 won 5-1 Remy 2, Gouffran, Cabaye, Cisse The match when HBA absolutely ripped them to shreds, hit the bar twice, made a few and was then dropped for the next match by that utter helmet!

My accas have been utter w*** this season! Thankfully had several first scorer singles and a few doubles up!

Grayson > Fat Spanish waiter whose every trophy success was a fluke, marra

He's made a decent start at holding on to it too!

With our never-ending left back problems, it's annoying how long we were linked with Erik Pieters looking at how well he has done for these! Didn't he even come over here to watch us when he was injured at PSV?

The managers he has appointed in O'Neill, Bruce, Poyet, Di Canio, Advocaat, Allardce and Moyes were all met with widespread approval by their fans and on the face of it, other than perhaps Di Canio looked like pretty sound choices for a club like Sunderland. This - and he's backed every manager too! He must DESPISE Niall Quinn!

I dread to think of the utter mess we would now be in if this legend had of walked away last summer! It absolutely beggars belief that the wanker of an owner has messed him about in two consecutive transfer windows! Sort it out you fat pleb or the Keegan reaction will seem like absolutely nothing if you force Rafa out!
