Yes, definitely.

Is there an "our fans" thread yet?

This^ Why can't people just trust Rafa?

:lol:

They really are the thickest bunch of twats you'll ever come acrosds aren't they?

This ^

Happens every season. Just don't buy it.

Looks canny. I'll be buying it.

I'd make him a cuppa.

If Daniel Sturridge ever does that tosspot dance in front of me I swear I'm on the fucking pitch.

What a great bloke man.

Fewmin!

Fickle.

We've got one of the best managers that we've ever had and he's trying to build something at our club, words don't come into it. Optimistic (with caution), yes. Happy? Not unless you're easily impressed. Enjoy your misery. Clearly, from my past couple of posts, I'm looking forward to our tenure with Rafa with optimism. It's the likes of you that give football fans the "fickle" label. You're mean.

You have to realise that no matter what we do as a club, them lot will instantle look for the negatives and if there isn't any, just completely make them up.

What fantastic news this is. Obviously none of us know what funds Rafa will be given but the most iomportant thing is Rafa is happy to stay here and take us forward. Brilliant.

Yep! https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/north-east-teams-to-play-at-the-new-wembley-before-the-mags.1360956/ What a bunch of fucking muppets man. They're utterly GUTTED!

Well done everyone involved. Look forward to seeing it next year.

I was reading somewhere a fan from one of the clubs who would have the money to buy him talk about this, he was basically telling the Mackems to get real. His point was that to spend 30 million on a keeper, he has to be the proven commodity because there a lot of other options out there for slightly older keepers who have the miles on their clock maybe they are in their mid to late 20's but if you bought one of those you would get at least 10 years or more out of them because keepers generally play longer than outfield players. Pickford has had one season in top flight football, being at the bottom club where keepers have the chance to shine with the amount of shots raining down on him. You are still very much paying for potential, no one is paying 30 million for potential, not even money stupid clubs like Man City or Chelsea. If he went to one of the "big" clubs he's probably going to have to sit on the bench, that's a lot of money to splurge on a bench warmer, why not pick up someone else for a much more reasonable price and watch Pickford develop some place else to see if he's the real deal or a one season wonder. GK is simply not a valued enough position and you can only play one at a time with a lot of adequate alternatives out there for them to get close to what that figure. Wouldn't surprise me at all to see him start the season still with that lot. That would screw up their recruitment policy which seems to be based solely around getting huge sums for players who have been playing for the worst team in the division this season. It'll make it all the more funny when they only get around £12M for him. There'll be a mackem meltdown. nah, they will post things about 6 in a row- our trophy records etc, and that makes their money go further. You forgot "we relegated them" threads too.
