Was expecting a "however the belt can only change hands by pinfall or submission....."

I know what you mean. There's stuff on there that you cant believe is legit and must be fishing, smoking them out, provoking bizarre comments. There's a concept that we started referring to ourselves as "Toon" because of them and doubled-down on it when they became a city and some jealousy was involved at our end somehow despite having been a city for 100years. Someone saying they went to both Sunderland's European away games and have you ever seen a Mag in Lisbon or Budapest (we've played at least six times in those citys) and Look North has deliberately been showing Sunderland in a bad light for years and promoting Newcastle. It would honestly work as a parody

Both out I'd say

Totally spent Georgia.

Makes at least as much sense to back the club given their record as it does attack them about ffp forcing them to sell a player that's never kicked a ball in the premier league

In an ffp world I don't know what else the club is supposed to do. You have to sell to buy and you cant sell players nobody wants. Even Man City do this, Chelsea practically live off it. The red clubs seem to not have to, surprise surprise.

Seemed like the sort of goal they could find something to rule it out for if they were so minded

The not putting the flag up until the sequence ends even though they know they're going to is another cracking addition

All but the most biased ardent Georgians wouldn't have complained had that not been given, it wouldn't have been controversial had that not been given so obviously its a error and given

It is. Wonder how they compute that being as they suppose its part of Sunderland and should be, even though its never remotely been, a stronghold of theirs.

He's got something but just too injury prone and expensive for me, got to be way better value elsewhere

Silage that. Wasted an Angel Delight on it.

Yeah. I don't know what their current average ticet price is but Leeds with 5000 less fans make x3 more per game. "41000 sold" couldn't be that far off surely.

2000, 2004, 2008 were way better than this

Remember the Euro 2000 game between these? If not, imagine a draw, but the exact opposite kind of draw to this. Plus for the quality discussion it was France's second string - they'd probably be the 2nd best team in this tournament

They did this in one of the earlier games, gave offside but they guy was nothing like interferring with play - nothing came of the attack like a goal but still. How many years until we stop celebrating goals

I've enjoyed it and been engaged in the games I've seen but I wouldn't say any of the games I've seen outside of that and any drama have been particularly good

Played like they're both through. Which they basically are.

In probably the greatest goal ever scored Maradona rounded the keeper

Even though its to their detriment they'll not give up the vain, self-delusion out of insecurity Very cheap tickets + lie about the gate anyway > we get 41,000 and are massive > any manager that doesnt achieve the standards of clubs with similar gates except real and making 3-6x as much gate money is a failure and is to be hounded out v club gets 30-35k actually > any manager that has us competing for the play offs is doing okay as is about our average for the last 60year and we should give them some time and not create a toxic atmosphere

Spain's not just been the best team so far in the tournament but the only team that's definitively good

Jersusalem's just lying there to be used too

with the way the tournament is laid out, both these sides will go through whatever happens so no need to get worked up one way or the other at this point - but knew they would all the same

The tournament organisers giving them almost exclusively home advantage probably

Not being an England fan I quite enjoyed that, seeing an ordinary Denmark more than matching them shouldn't happen, but there you are. Not even saying they wont win the game or tournament but it wont be done in anything like the manner it should be - more Denmark and Greece and France and Spain
