Huge crowd at the Steyadjum like!

I had that email as well. Been a season ticket holder for many years..... Numbskulls....

Whereas this is absolutely fine... Imagine including ex loan players who havnt played for you for years. That's from their official twitter account too not just their local rag. Once again they prove they have zero self-awareness. Pretty much exactly what I was getting at... :-)

https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/france-win-world-cup-but-the-mags.1438244/ Every comment in the Twitter link is saying how awful the Chronicle message is yet , the mackems......

Did you skip maths entirely, or did you just not pay attention? Care to explain? I make it as follows: 10,000 seats x 2 mins = 20,000 minutes 20,000 minutes / number of minutes in an hour = 333 hours. Oh, I see what I did, yup... I am thick! I could go back and edit but, hey it is a stray "K" what can you do?
-
I feel like I am in a minority here, I already renewed and am missing watching my team, so looking forward to the new season.

Taking approx. 2 mins per seat without any mishaps and with a target of changing 10k seats they are looking at 333k man hours. Master stroke if they can get fans to do it for free - or at least the price of a sandwich and a pint. However, this is just one more badly considered idea by their bizarre owner which will fall foul of several health and safety laws and surely end terribly.....

I would be really happy to be a solid mid table Premier League team for 3 - 4 years, however.... I just don't see it happening. Instead, assuming Rafa stays, we should be really pushing for one of the top 6 positions. All we had to do this year was to turn about half of those gut wrenching 1 - 0 defeats into wins and we would have done it this year, I mean, how many times have we been on top for large portions of a match carving out chance after chance just to lose to a sucker punch goal. If we had better strikers there would have been some surprising results this season... Spurs could easily have been 4 or 5 - 1 given the chances that went begging....

Would imply everyone else is just gonna stand still which obviously won't happen. Given that reality, staying up would be unlikely. A lot will make stupid buys and appointments and go backwards probably. It's a complete myth that the whole league gets stronger year on year. Ferguson used to say if you don't improve you go backwards, it's very naive and borderline delusional of anyone to think if we were only to add a striker to this team that we wouldn't go backwards and very lucky to be anything but contending relegation. Just to clarify, I did say team and not squad. I would still be happy if our starting 11 was the same with the addition of a striker that can score. We definitely need to strengthen the squad as a whole because everyone who commented saying that our players will get worse is maybe half right. Some will get worse as they are coming towards the end of their useful career, others are likely to continue to improve. We do need better cover at full back than the cover we currently have. Also in my current starting 11 I am including Kenedy, by no means guaranteed to be with us next year. Diame has always got the potential to become the Diame that we all hated and so a good cover for him is a must. Hayden and Merino are still on the improvement curve and must improve considerably before we can rely on them week in week out.
-
I am pretty happy with the entire team apart from strikers, it would not bother me one bit if we started the next season with the exact same starting 11 as we closed with but, for the exception of someone who can get on the end of the ball and actually finish the chances the team creates. (And I never thought I would ever think the above where Paul Dummett is concerned)
-
Once again we dominate, well... play pretty well, in a game and come away with nothing... It is a well worn path and a typical script that we could all write... Loads of early chances, some of really high quality, not taken followed by a sucker punch. In this case the sucker punch came quite early and we should have had time to rectify but, this is us we are talking about. Absolutely agree that safety in this league was a priority - we achieved that with time to spare (for once). I think we will need to beat Chelsea in order to secure that 10th place finish... Really looking forward to Sunday, last game of the season at home always feels special. I will definitely be happy to stay behind to applaud this team on their lap on honour, they have completely deserved it this year!

Failing to notice that he wouldn't go to Everton in respect to Liverpool fans but, believing that he would even consider our nearest neighbours......

Does anyone have any idea why they think they have soooo many "undercover mags" on RTG? I cannot recall many, if any, occasions where we have suggested that someone on here is an undercover mackem... I know we had a couple but, it isn't a regular thing. Practically every thread in their site has some poster accusing another of being a mag..... It is almost like anyone that does not subscribe to their fanciful world of make believe must be an imposter, yet the really funny thing about this is that when they have a clear mackem pretending to be a fan of - insert club here - in peace they lap it up.....
-
There is a thread on their site that bemoans the fact that they were only 6 points away from being safe.... not one of them has picked up on the fact that they were THAT SHIT all season but, still only failed to stay up by 6 points. Last season the standard at the bottom of the Championship was considerably higher, Rotherham aside maybe, and if a team had been as bad as them in that league they would have been relegated by Christmas.
-
It must be incredibly annoying to think that you, as a random mackem, has paid out full price for your seat and yet a further 8 - 10k people who are there may have paid as little as nothing for theirs....
-
Given their well publicized running costs if Short had paid all the debt up to date a couple of weeks ago then they will surely be close to GBP 1M in the red already.... and growing! Maybe a little less if the onerous third party debt interest payment is no longer being paid!

Do you think the FA just sit back on a Saturday and watch MotD to catch up with all the foul play that their referees have missed during any given Saturday? Not condoning Slimani for the kick, it was totally stupid but, MotD seem to be the go to authority of spotting all infringements and ensuring they are raised to the highest level for follow up...

Currently getting all excited about a sighting of Mick McCarthy in a pub in Boldon having lunch: And the mackems have the fuckin neck to call us fat and gravy stained..... look at the clip of this cunt with him....
-
Not even satire I didn't know that.... Jeez, he just gets worse.
-
Allardyce, rate myself 11/10.... Even Squires sees him as an odious prick!
-
While I agree that for the sake of Arsenal they are ready for a change at the top I cannot help but, think the fans are a bunch of ungrateful cunts. 3 Premier League titles 7 FA Cups 7 Charity Shields In the space of 22 years! More than most clubs have win in their entire history!

Got little to do with N'zogbia or Sunderland but I didn't realise until yesterday that Olivier Bernard is only 38 and last kicked a professional football when he was 26. Didn't Bernard have some issues with his hips? Arthritis or something similar.... Currently the owner of Durham City FC, stayed in the area simply because it is mint here!
