    Sunderland

    I’ve said it before, but the fact that a week or so before our takeover their fans were seen pictured outside their own stadium (and alongside their official supporters club) holding a banner up saying refugees are not welcome, just shows that they have actual little regard for the human cost of wars. No doubt right now many of them are having conversations in their own homes about how no Ukrainian should be allowed in and we should send them back and force them to fight for their own country. The situation with them in regards to us is always an exception if they need it to be.
  2. I did the predictor last week. I had us finishing on 35 points, Burnley above us on 36, Everton went down with 29 points. I tried to be as realistic as possible.
  3. Not going to happen, Watford play Arsenal, Arsenal always fuck it up for us.

    Sunderland

    Wasn’t Howay and Haway both used by us and they decided to have one of them and said we couldn’t? They are both very Geordie phrases that mean the same thing.
  5. This is people were happy to have a go at us for taking in Saudi money, yet over the last few days people have been calling for PIF to buy Chelsea and sell us. They have even been tweeting another Saudi Prince to buy them. In all honesty I’m a bit tired of football fans being the ones asked to make a stand, and I don’t just mean us. It always seems to be on football fans, from us being asked to walk away from our club because of our owners (whilst our government sells our owners the weapons for their wars), to football fans being the ones asked to take a stand against racism and other forms of bigotry whilst the rest of the population stands by and does fuck, and our governments and official agency who do have control over issues stand by and do the finger pointing. I’m not saying these things are right, they clearly aren’t, but it is football fans who seem to be the only ones who are asked or even required to actually take a stand.
  6. Way out of his price range.
  7. We get the chance to drag it out for a year and a half hoping the new owner just loses interest. Unsure if this applies for takeovers of other already rich clubs though.
  8. Not at the price he wants they wouldn’t be.

    Sunderland

    Nah, he clearly is a mackem. He’s gone to games with obvious Sunderland fans and he’s been obviously gutted when they have conceded late goals and such. Also he lives just of the A1/A690 roundabout. I think he’s a canny guy, he has clearly taken inspiration early on from the True Geordie. I can’t dislike him, I think he’s just someone who has little else in life but his football club, has invested so much into it and recent years he’s suffered. He doesn’t come across as the brightest person, but he does seem harmless and actually a decent guy.
  10. He’s obviously been pushed and regardless of if he’s going to cash in whilst he can, he knows sooner or later his hands are going to be tied and that he won’t be able to spend money. I’m guessing he’s also hoping that by doing this and using the words he has said, that he’ll walk away from any asset holding that may come his way.
  11. It needs to be a Leicester win tonight. If as the season comes to and end and we are safe then we start looking for results with teams above us to go our way, right now we need the teams below us getting the minimum amount of points as possible.
  12. Pretty sure Usmanov’s company is the one bankrolling and sponsoring their new stadium.
  13. Fuck, they are well and truly fucked if they go down as well. How is that stadium going to be paid for now?
  14. I just think with the games we have left and the points gap, assuming other teams also win a fair share of games then it will be too much. I think another 12 points will be enough to keep us up and I think that is a reasonable target with our fixtures left, I also think that it could give us a fairly decent finishing position.

    St James' Park

    Villa Park has a road going under one of their stands doesn’t it? Spurs’ new stadium has a car park underneath it. Also those barriers are designed to stop a truck.
  16. We aren’t finishing top half, and I’d be surprised if we finish higher than we are.
  17. They have an average Championship squad aside from a couple of players. He has had them outperforming beyond their ability.
  18. Dean is a fucking cunt. He’ll go looking to even the numbers now.
  19. Much rather Everton go down to be honest, however Leeds being in free fall is good news for us. I think Biesla was going to go this summer in anyway.
