*clicks stopwatch* Who had post #7?

hey, 'Perchenbauer' was only half joking

The same Martin O'Neill they, nearly to a man, wanted at the time? Martin O'Neill reminds me of the Metro in that the Mackems cry-arsed about getting it on wearside for so long that when it eventually arrived they didn't know what to do with it. In the end it was so under-used that his service has been severely cut at South Hylton to peak times only, and he's ended up managing at international level. Might've mixed the metaphors too much there....Anyway, I miss the Metro jumping up and down in it's scruffy tracksuit.

Aye pretty paltry following, and even the shortbus noticed. But this guy won attendance bullsh*t bingo all in one post! To paraphrase the entire thread: "Honest... I ran out of gas. I... I had a flat tire. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake. A terrible flood. Locusts! IT WASN'T MY FAULT, I SWEAR TO GOD!" http://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/how-many-did-we-have-at-anfield-last-night.897503/

Couldnt be prewder of the lads tonight marras.....everyone expected us to be thoroughly outclassed and heavily beaten, but we were only mildly outclassed and narrowly beaten. GERRIN! FTM 0-3!!

Let the games begin.....

Faultydore

Alti ('annoyed grunt') Sums him up quite well tbh

Get Altidore off and bring on the beachball...

Didn't see today then? (EDIT - were you talking about Haidera? I was talking about Dummett..... ) I really want him to do well, but on current evidence he is poor. Pulled all over the place today, and when he did get the ball, he didn't know what to do.

That link man! The first 3 paragraphs are about us, with Macko Bingo favo 'boycoutt' getting an immediate mention. This though... Flirting with relegation? Flirting? I would say you're balls deep with relegation, feeling your balls fizz and approaching the vinegar strokes, idly thinking about where to wipe your flaccid dicks afterwards.... Flirting!

£12 million Rising to £14 million including add ons http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19256084 :spit take: That is absolutely ludicrous! £36 million for a non-scoring forward line has to be unprecedented. I've been cautiously optimistic about their fate, but surely, given their remaining fixtures......it's Yeovil time. How about 35 million for just a non-scoring forward (Remember when Liverpool were a joke )? I said 36 million. Ergo, my point stands.

Or p*ssed as a fart if rumours are to be believed.

There seems to be a general consensus that the East Stand is untouchable due to the listed buildings behind it. However, could it not be extended vertically like Boca Juniors did with the Bombonera? it would look odd but it could prove a cheaper option than building over the road and metro station at the Gallowgate (on land which the club no longer owns so that would be an extra cost)

Well this is odd....close family friend gets tickets mailed to him on a regular basis, on account of his work with Sunderland City Council in his role as a foster carer. By the way - He hasn't fostered any bairns for about 5 years, and living in North Shields ('MAG TERRITRY FTM!!!') every ticket goes straight in the bin. You want them? Send them my way if you want... Will try, havent seen him in a while......would rather they went to a fan than a freebie

It would be funny if it wasnt such a f'kin joke.

F*cking tramps. We've all arrived at a common consensus that sunderland town centre is an absolute landfill, are they now trying to use the premier league to showcase their trampish ways on a global stage?

In that case, I apologise. I really have to stop getting involved in this thread......as far as I can see, it isn't even about sunderland any more.

Nah, Quayside's reinvented itself... ethnically cleansed all the w*nker bars out. Its all micro-brewerys, gastro pubs and craft beers now. Must try it out then! Aye whatever. Get yourself to Brooklyn then. Or Glasgow . Or wherever the f*ck you've deemed acceptable. Or alternatively, the Queen Alex in Shields have stopped hair-spraying all the flat surfaces in the bogs. Much more 'real'.

;D Irony? Nah. Nope. Dead town.

Another day on wearside, another match thread turns into a 'Newcastle isn't all that, sunerlun's just as good marra' denial-festival... 'supping' :D I do wonder though - why don't we mirror their daily 'sunderland is a better night out than Newcastle' threads on here? Hmmm.... http://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/mag-on-crystal-palace-forum.890668/page-5

I do agree with most of this... I occasionally work with a SAFC fan, ex-shipyard now training apprentices, in his late 50's so old enough to have seen both the highs and lows of his club and a more fairer-handed bloke you couldn't wish to meet, great sense of self-depreciating humour and always ready to laugh at SAFC's predicament. I also work with an absolute nightmare from houghton, shrill voiced and salad-averse, her every comment about SAFC is preceded by a comment about NUFC. And she has whole-heartedly bought into this classy/unclassy bollocks which is at the crux of the argument. If this whole 'classy' hogwash hadn't surfaced, we could never have taken issue with it. It sticks in people's craw as it is so clearly bullsh*t and easily disproved. I suppose my question is - where and why did it arise?
