Just a question, why do they seem to hate Coventry so much?

 

Coventry narrowly avoided relegation at the expense of Sunderland during the 96-97 season. Obviously rather than this just being a simple twist of fate the residents of Mackemland have taken this personally and now hold a grudge against them. Basically, imagine us despising Hull for daring to finish one place above us when we went down because that's more or less their problem.

 

I posted the bit below, are you sure it was 96-97?

 

 

It goes back to May 1977, I think.  The Mackems were relegated basically becaue Coventry and Bristol could have also got relegated so Coventry managed to get the game delayed for 15 minutes or so.  Coventry and Bristol only needed a draw once the mackem result was known and they both p*ssed about for the last 15 minutes knowing that they didn't have to win the game.

 

Coventry should have been shafted for that because it was almost certainly a fix, it was funny though at the time.

 

Edit.

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Hill

 

Despite his surprise departure as manager in 1967, Hill returned to Coventry City as managing director in April 1975 before becoming the chairman. As chairman, at a crucial relegation match at home to Bristol City at the end of the 1976–77 season, Hill delayed the kick off by 10 minutes for fans still outside caught in the heavy traffic. Relegation rivals Sunderland, playing at Everton kicked off on time. Sunderland eventually lost the game 2–0. Knowing that all Coventry needed to stay up was a draw, the Sunderland result was flashed up on the scoreboard. Hill made his players pass the ball around in their own half for the last 10 minutes of the game, saving Coventry from relegation at the expense of Sunderland, Tottenham Hotspur and Stoke City. Hill was never forgiven by Sunderland fans.

 

 

now cast your mind back to that sunny day we beat forest 5-0, liverpool and arsenal failed to win and we got a champs league spot as runners up in the league. at the other end of the division middlesboro, ravinelli, juninho et al succumbed their premier spot at elland road and sunderland travelled to play wimbledon, now i was back in the forth after clapping nufc off before the mackem game finished and rumours were rife about them being very late out for the second half, trying the same stunt apparently. twats when anyone else does it but ok when they do it, even when it fails. (know locally as the larsson defence)

Something about Demba's lips exploding, and that we should be called the C*** army instead of the toon army because of how many black players we have. Total idiot.

 

The even sadder thing is that their best player is black, not to mention Bent, Bramble etc

 

Oh and then he salutes Mohammed Ali as a true inspiration  :lol:

From memory

 

"When Demba's lips explode, you'll be fucked"

 

"With the amount of darkies on your team you should be called the coon army"

 

And in reply to a mag calling him up on it

 

"How are Ba's lips? #onlythingkeepingyouafloat"

 

Six page thread on rtg firstly assuming it was as one of us, then just ignoring it and pasting any reports they can find about racist incidents from Newcastle fans from 1976. Kind of apolitical for them by Seaham_FTM declaring how hilarious he finds the lips comments.

Name not mentioned in article but Chronicle have had it confirmed to them it's same person; one of their reporters contacted Northumbria Police.

Quite disgraceful that the only club named in that report is the one who's players were attacked by the racist. Why is it not mentioned that the racist is a supporter of Sunderland who comes from Sunderland ?

Similar stuff recently in the Journal which headlined "ex Toon star Titus Bramble" when reporting on the Sunderland player's alleged sex offences.

 

The way their management has been bigging up the criminals on their playing staff I think it is unlikely they will see fit to condemn the racist rants made by one of their fans. Disgraceful.

Sunderland AFC should make a public condemnation of the fan but expect a Liverpool type screen.

RTG is like one of them silly boats where they used to gather mentally challenged people on a boat and set it to sail without a captain or anything, they just float along feeding off each others bitter non sensical ramblings with no one keeping them in check. Makes for good reading though :)

He's on his way to the north east, who's to say he's not speaking to both of us first?

 

Personally, I don't think we want him. If we do, we'll get him.

Danny Simmo to carry the English flag. Probably no coincidence that he's the shittest player in the starting XI :lol:

 

Taylor and Williamson?

Aye Williamson, forgot about him, Taylor too although I hope he's replaced by Barfa.

 

All in all we can conclude that I was talking s**** :lol:

or saylor when all fit.

@MetroRadioNews: #safc striker Fraizer Campbell's been fined over £800 for making an illegal manoeuvre in his car in Newcastle City Centre.

 

Sounds intriguing!
