Benwell Lad Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Might have missed an odd game but.... Our record with Kevin Friend P17 W3 D2 L11 Cana, Catts, Meyler, Mensah, Brown s/off Defoe "tackle" on Gordon. Cant even count the thick twats .... and in fairness wouldn't that bunch of results be fairly representative of the macums' form during the O'Neill, di Canio, mad Gus era anyway ?

Benwell Lad Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 See they've got another "points total from the next 10 games" thread going. Probably their favourite discussion point after "why we're the best fans in the world despite plummeting attendances" and "the whole world is against us" threads. Unsurprisingly some are predicting an upturn to Champions League type form Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unsurprisingly some are predicting an upturn to Champions League type form some of them will post a wildly optimistic total from 10 games, convince themselves it will come true, be happy again til it doesn't, wonder where it all went wrong. Rinse and repeat........ Its fucking hilarious and been going on for years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Think that red card was a direct result of them now having a reputation of being incredibly dirty cunts. After all their recent bad tackles and the Larsson one getting plenty of press coverage before the international break the ref has just assumed Browns gone in to do someone. Still a terrible decision mind but don't mind seeing them getting what's coming to them for all their terrible tackles lately. Think there's something in this. If you were a ref who got conned by Larsson & co., I'd remember it and get 'em back next time I got given their fixture. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Disgusting really. Excellent tackle and the only thing Brown was guilty of was not still playing for Manu. Hope they don't let it drop, the FA need to be held accountable for their utterly pathetic decisions both during and after games concerning red cards and fouls.

Guest firetotheworks Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Agreed. Normally I'd find it funny with it being Sunderland, but if they're not saying that it was a mistake, mixed with Rooney getting away with swiping someone's legs and the whole Haidara situation last season, I hope they do fight it and fight it tbh. It's an utter joke. The whole system is so blatantly corrupt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 There's something seriously wrong with the rules if decisions like that can't be changed post-event. Wouldn't be the first time, obviously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 They never seem to repeal the ones where it was just proven to be wrong later but a case can be made for the sending off at the time. Undermining the ref etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ameritoon Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Loads of them jumped on a tweet from Brian McNally earlier saying he once spoke with an ex-SAFC manager (has to be Keane or MoN) who claimed Friend had an anti-sunderland agenda. 1) I don't believe that he has an anti-sunderland agenda (despite being born in Bristol and a member of the Leicestershire and Rutland County Football Association - so clearly a Mag). 2) McNally talks out his arse a lot of the time anyway. Pretty sure he's just a shit ref. We have a pretty good record with him (think we won every game when he was a ref during the Championship year), but now that he's in the Premier League weekly it's pretty clear he's a bit out of his depth.

Benwell Lad Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Don't see how anyone can sympathise with them considering what they've got away with recently. They're a dirty team who go out to hurt opposition players, as was clearly illustrated in two of their recent matches, so if they get an occasional one given against them then it's their own fault. Their manager would be better off addressing their dirty attitude to the game rather than behaving like a demented chimpanzee. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Icke - Son of God Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I'm very much a believer that these things even themselves out. It's hard to have too much in the way of sympathy after Larsson's tackle went unpunished against Manchester City too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the mackems appeal. something i find baffling about football in many respect but lets be specific: the rules are dogshit, and they're dogshit for everyone, so why do clubs just sit back and take it from the FA year after year? the clubs are the money machines, threaten the FA with walking away and setting up their own league these fucking cowards would ask how high to jump yet year on year it's the same shit, can't think of another industry like it personally Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
