Guest Haris Vuckic Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 So long as they spend money like that on players like Fletcher we'll always be well ahead of them. The only player in our squad we spent more on was Coloccini and he was only £500k more iirc. £13m on Wickham, £13m on Gyan, no? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistle17 Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Personally I don't think Fletcher's a bad player, but £10million? This, ladies and gentlemen, is Marty 'Party' O'Neil at his finest! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bhoywhonder Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Guardian journo accidentally refers to the Bruce Springsteen gig as being on Tyneside. Result? Mackemdom rears up on it's hind legs and starts frothing at the mouth... http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2012/jun/22/bruce-springsteen-live-review-sunderland?INTCMP=SRCH (scroll down to comments section) Guys, you're right, I am an idiot and clearly did not check my geography. In mitigation, I actually wrote the review in Newcastle. Upon Tyne. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Geordiesned Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Been at Chilis gig tonight. The Futureheads were playing their first ever gig at the SOL, the ground of the team they support in the city they were brought up in. A proud moment you would think and a time to celebrate all things Sunderland? They sang "you sad bastard, you play in black and white". Cheesy chip anyone?

CaliMag Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Toy Dolls are great. Do the Angelic Upstarts count (I know they're technically Sand Dancers, but I had heard at least one of them supported Sunderland)? I loved them back in the 80s. Then it gets thin music-wise for me regarding makems. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 The best Futureheads album is This Is Not The World by a long shot, give it a listen or 2 if you don't believe me. Always only been mildly keen on their other stuff and they were a bit off the radar when that came out but it's fantastic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
