Superior Acuña Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Surprised how many people encounter them. I didn't have a single mackem friend, schoolmate, relative, family friend in my 18 years living in Newcastle. My only exposure to them was on the bus to the Stadium of Shite - so they're not humanised to me at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinkeye Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Jesus, 2 games in and they are about to take to the world stage and become the next big thing..... I will be massively surprised if DiCanio is still in a job there by the end of next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Jesus, 2 games in and they are about to take to the world stage and become the next big thing..... I will be massively surprised if DiCanio is still in a job there by the end of next season. Me too. His time at Swindon suggests he'll end up pissing people within the club off and he'll end up either resigning or sacked. Right now they're enjoying his honey moon period.

Scoreboard82 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Being NETD is success in their eyes. The be all and end all. Losing that self invented title, one that only exists when it suits them, would hurt them more than relegation. That's how small time they are.

summerof69 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 The best thing about that thread, isn't that some think they have a chance of emulating the same as what Keegan did, but if you look through the pages, some are even claiming that wouldn't be good enough because they "actually want to win something".

Dr Venkman Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Are they discussing whether its a good idea to gloat about their inevitable champions league success, like they did when Marty joined? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyP Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Having scanned over RTG, i cant help but feel next year, they will go in with a ridiculous level of confidence. Imagine if Shola just rolled them over? 2-0. At the estadio de la luz? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Moody Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Watch the video http://tyneandwear.sky.com/news/article/64450/sunderland-fan-pleads-not-guilty-to-making-alleged-monkey-gesture When Lee Poppet, prosecuting, stated that his bail conditions included staying 300 metres clear of the Stadium of Light and 500 metres of St James' Park on match days, Jones was visibly offended and said: "I divvent gan to St James' Park". Just seen this. Fucking brilliant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Roy the Irish Magpie Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 He wins two matches and all of a sudden he is a messiah and the man to lead them to glory and there is no way he can fail. Lmao and they think we're the delusional ones. This is very, very familiar to Martin O Neill's early days too they all thought top 10 was guaranteed this season and they'd be challenging for Europe at te worst. Hilariously pathetic bunch.

Decky Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 It's a pretty good indication of how long they reckon it'll be until they beat us convincingly at our place again They should be pretty confident as long as Pardew is here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Moody Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Not sure if mentioned but the geordie bloke who does the voice for Big Brother was interviewed on some radio show the other day, I've just remembered about it. Asked where in the North East he was from, he replied ''You're either mackem, or attack 'em. And I attack 'em.''. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current levels of new manager euphoria/optimism/delusion seem to have soared way above even those which greeted messiahs Keane,Bruce and O'Neill, and should ensure great entertainment when it all inevitably goes tits up.

Ryan_Taylor Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Could easily grab a spare for their game at Villa, I hate both of them, I really don't know if I can stomach sitting with Villa fans. Equally I can't stomach watching the mackems possibly win Don't do it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equally I can't stomach watching the mackems possibly win Don't do it. Probably wise. I like to watch football regardless but there isn't really an outcome in that game that suits me. I'd pay good money right now to see Sunderland beat Villa, fucking hell its important to us, forget them lot they don't matter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
