That doesn't happen. You don't work on accents man, you speak the language the way you're most comfortable. Or are you asking him to put on a terrible fake accent a la McClaren?

They're both grim, but Boro has something resembling a city centre. A massive, hugely successful university and due to all the heavy industry it actually has character. It has an identity to it that Sunderland completely lacks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 I actually think it's best for NE football for all the sides to do well. It's an extra bit of motivation. The top 7 this year will be 2 Manc clubs, 3 London clubs and the 2 Scouse clubs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a great place but Boro/Teesside is streets ahead in terms of being a shit hole. The place didn't exist until the late 19th century apart from a few villages. Someone once said to think of the north east like this: Boro is the arsehole, Sunderland is the armpit and Newcastle is the brain centre. Pretty accurate from my experience.

I've never known a set of fans who've got such an over-inflated opinion of themselves. They never ever miss an opportunity to pat themselves on the back. Self-congratulary c***s. There was a "Swindon fan" on RTG telling them all how amazing they all were and how he wishes Swindon could get the same numbers as them, such a bunch of creeps man, i'd bet good money it was just a mackem I see that iloveki on there is now a mag and the mentally challenged Dirty Bristow is calling for another of their famous 'cauldrons of hate' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattypnufc Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 After this: I'd be quite happy for them to be relegated and never to be seen again. Whilst our support would have a wry smile and a bit of a laugh (and our support is often as guilty as there's in calling each other obsessed etc), we certainly wouldn't hang around after the match and celebrate like we'd won the fucking league.

I still can't believe someone designed that stadium only within the past 20 years. What an uninspiring dump. Stands in stark contrast to the real Estadio da Luz. Is it any different in person?

Zippity Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Aye. The area around it is a sh*thole and inside it's like any other 'kit' ground. Mind, they cater well for the home fans. They have a specially designated area for fans to run onto to celebrate when they score before being gently ushered back to their seats by stewards who can barely contain their own mirth; I think it's green so that it stands out so they know where to go. They have a name for it but I can't recall it at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
