Conceded fewer than us, better GD than us, lost fewer games than us, only two points fewer than us.

 

They're in the shit and we're not, despite us having to actually play them? Hmm.

 

A much more important stat is two points from their last six games vs six points from our last six.

It did cross my mind yesterday that the North East clubs are generally a bit of a joke most seasons, whereas you get clubs from Manchester, Liverpool and London generally doing well most years.  We have the odd good year but plenty of years like this and the mackems are lucky if they stay up.  Shame really as I'd prefer to see 2 good North East sides in the top half than ones from Manchester, Liverpool or London any day of the week.

The two clubs have beem mis managed since the 50s, only the odd bursts of a few seasons from each side then it always turns to shit as each board seems to not know how to build and maintain momentum.

 

That and moneybeing taken out of the clubs when it should be spent on players and youth set up.

RTG has gone more mental that usual. There are a small band of people who are fighting the good fight and arguing that Di Canio shouldn't be anywhere near the club based on his politics alone, another group saying they don't care about his politics as long as he beats "tha maggy bastads" and a not insubstantial number who are basically trying to redefine fascism. Honestly man, on their huge Di Canio thread I've actually just watched someone selectively quote the fascist manifesto to try and prove that it's not that bad.

 

The classy club tag has well and truly gone the distance now. Nothing they say or do from this juncture will ever make me think they're anything other than a bunch of utter fucking cretins. They're appointing a self confessed fascist as manager and they're trying to justify his politics. Tossers.
