  1. It all just meldges in to one huge lump tbh. It was like a competition. They opened it in 1997 at 40k, we expanded in 1998 from 36 to 52, so they expanded again up to nearly 49 in 2000. Hence their ground is a fair whack too big now, even when they were getting 40k. But it made sense for both clubs at the time if you look back at the trajectory of the teams and the crowds. Yeah true. The first season they finished 7th with Quinn and Phillips it was actually difficult to get tickets for Sunderland games. So they expanded and tbf in the next 7th place season they averaged 47k. That fell to 44k and then 36k for the 19 point season. They overshot based on what was a wave at the time. But both clubs were ambitious and optimistic. It was a far better era for North East football, especially when you also consider Boro. Pretty sure that was when Murray came out with his infamous “one more seat than Newcastle” line
  2. Which one was Invicta? Didn’t he live in Edinburgh or something??? He was a complete tool and from memory tried coming back under several different usernames.
  3. I remember him, big Shepherd fan wasn’t he?
  4. It’s called using your brain, it works now and again due to most footballers not having that ability
  5. It’s not a fucking tent and we don’t live in America. Marquee signing FFS
  6. It wasn't a discussion the other night, negative/alternative opinions weren't allowed or were ridiculed. I'm just trying to promote some balance here. He his working with his hands tied (like last year) but (like last year) he isn't making things easy for himself. Weren't allowed f***ing drama queens of the highest order. Spot on
  7. I thought some of the social media posts (Alan on the Chronics FB) were incredibly shortsighted until I read the shit on here. 0-1 with the utter shite we’ve got as a fucking victory, anyone saying anything else should quite frankly fuck off and let Rafa get on with it
  8. Clark deserves a lot of credit for our goal. He started the move with a lot of composure.
  9. He obviously can’t forget the ‘paper aeroplane’ game. The pressure on the players was unbelievable while most people were trying to see who’s plane could the pitch. Sourfaced cunt
  10. Sums up Wraith. Knew him for a bit and anyone actually taking notice of his bullshit and speculative crap when he knows fuck all is mental
  11. That just reads very wrong
  12. Actually haven't seen much from them on this, what's being said?
  13. It is here. Commentators laughed at the 39000 figure
  14. Yeah, when it first happened a couple of his mates were threatening people on the Chronicle articles. A quick look at their profiles and its all 'stop the spread of Islam' etc etc
  15. Agreed. Was a clumsy challenge. Nah, as soon as he blew for a pen there was only going to be one result
  16. Sense. We're going to finish on 94 points man, we've done our job this season like. I know.
