ponsaelius Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Randy what do you think about Bruce's complete failure to sign some natrually left sided footballers? Unbelievably ignorant and stupid. We've been crying out for a natural left back and left winger for years. Once again, we brought in a stack of players but are going to fudge the left side completely. It's the one oversight that I simply can't get my head around. I don't understand how despite having having the scope and funds to bring in so many new players he ignored the positions needed most and has done for ages. I said it on here when you were making all the new signings, I don't think Bruce has any real plan or forsight. He seems to just throw teams together, then tear them apart again and hope it all works out well. Darren Bent was a masterstroke for him though and it papered over the cracks for a while.

Guest Randy Savage Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Which Sunderland players reside in Newcastle? At this point it's probably worth pointing out that Gateshead and Northumberland are not part of Newcastle. Gateshead is part of Greater Newcastle, just like places like Whitley Bay and even Sunderland, debatably. Quite possibly the biggest load of horseshite I've ever read, and there have been some contenders I can tell you. The Sunderland bit is, aye, but swap Greater Newcastle for Tyneside and he's correct about Gateshead and Whitley Bay. I've never ever heard the term Greater Newcastle. I've heard Greater London and Greater Manchester but that's it. Not disputing Whitley Bay and Gateshead are Tyneside for a second however. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, but it's just a name that pretty much means the same. Greater London, Greater Manchester, Merseyside, Tyneside, etc all incorporate the areas around and just outside of the more specific city boundary's. To most people, if you live in these areas you'd say you're from the associated city. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did well at West Ham too, so much so, they were actually pleased when they re-signed him! Going back a bit further Mickey Gray was excellent for us, especially in tandem with Magic Johnston.

I think I can watch his sky post game interview via the sky sports app so I'll do that in a bit. I'll listen to see what he says on MOTD too. No doubt he'll blame anybody but himself, as usual.
