Arrogant as f***. Even worse now he's been given a bit of rope to express his actual personality - nah. You're not Italian mate, get over it. Looks like a total c*** n all. Don't actually mind his opinions tbh which isn't usually the case. You're right about Auclair, good journalist and on the ball most of the time. Auclair's a chocolate coated big cream puff.

Cockblob... (Not an answer to the above question. Just a statement of discontent.)

I'd put them all in a field and bomb the bastards.

Well, if he's available on loan/day release.

Be more confident in your predictions, 54. Emboldened even.

I think it was more to do with, a no doubt coached, wooden and expressionless/emotionless interview style. Would say very little and in monotone. Lovely to see him relax into being his more humorous natural self (should stop saying 'I really do' to reinforce points though).

Well it's a theory which fits and has the usual suspects in the black hats and in the white hats, in the Barrack Road Ranch. Personally, I think he a highly ambitious young man and suspect his head would be well and truly turned by Champions League type interest.

Four point gap?

Alreet, TG?

Aye, so are many my friend

Let’s face it, most of us took some time to mature/sand down the rough edges (and still a work in progress for me!). We didn’t have to do it in the public eye in a very visible high profile job with all the scrutiny and, as mentioned, the opportunities that kind of wealth opens up for young people, largely from relatively improvised backgrounds. Fair play to the man. If you’re lucky, you live and learn.

Is he definitely out?

Haha. What a hybrid the combined best attributes of those four would make though!

So applying makemathics, if you have paid off your mortgage on your leasehold property, you are still renting? Love that place; you learn something new everyday (mainly not to bother visiting/mocking the afflicted).

What an absolute teat; no don’t milking it now.

Really enjoyed the podcast. Thought he seemed very honest, sometimes to his cost. Reminded me of how good a player he was on his day, how much I enjoyed watching him, and loved his appreciation of Nobby: still my all time favourite. Surprised that Martins was that much quicker than him and similarly that Bellamy wasn’t in the same league as him, pace wise.

I’m sure we took more than that, the mere 1500+ miles or so, to Kiev. Though we had a lower percentage of the total (98,000) crowd, so no doubt another example of superior SAFC support.

Just had a peek, don’t fancy them to beat anyone at the moment. Sorely tempted by Fulham away on 28th April. I wouldn’t mind watching Mitro play for them (if he’s starting) and that seems the ideal game.

sounds right up our street.

Don’t know much about tier three footy, never having ventured there before, but Wigan and Rochdale look decent. Both are probably reasonable comparisons for a club/place like Sunderland. Particularly Wigan, recent tier one, demographics similar, perceived to be not a nice place, or at least a bit meh/unfashionable place, to live. Part of Greater Manchester but no sense of connection/shared identity with their regional capital. The population of Sunderland (about 275k) sits between the other two (Wigan 301k, Rochdale 211k). They might fit in well, once they get used to it; resign themselves to their level.

I’m still bewildered at them calling themselves Mackems. What sort of mental gymnastics do you have to go through for a piss take on a dumb-sounding phrase, in a equally dumb-sounding Wearside twang (Mak’ ‘em ‘n’ tak’ ‘em), to become something you identify yourself as?
