WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I remember when we got relegated as soon as the fixtures came out 'A Love Supreme' made t-shirts detailing some of the more embarrassing dates i.e Newcastle United vs Peterborough. Of course, actions like the above met with realities of an easy promotion & a 5-1 defeat etc certainly contribute to the modern mackem psychology. Of being a f***ing idiot. yet they played the likes of Luton, Southend and Colchester the last time they were down there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

madras Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 at work yesterday one of the lads was flicking through the new FHM calander and muttered "theres an alternative universe in which I'm banging her", someone else piped in "aye, the same one where sunderland win the league", messroom mackem piped up "not going to happen, the theory is that all possible universes happen, us winning the league isn't possible so it wouldn't happen". fair do's like.

Probably a good thing for them, if they go down (still have a nagging feeling they will get out of it though) they will instantly cut their wage bill. All those players are of questionable quality too. Well really all their squad is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DebuchyAndTheBeast Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Out of all the decisions they mentioned only 2 are blatant IMO: The Brown red card and the handball against Spurs. The rest are debatable 50/50 decisions. For e.g in the Altiflop vs Sagna incident both were fouling each other but I guess the ref was favouring the defender. Nevertheless we've been on the end of some bad calls but when you're playing well and winning it shouldn't matter at the end of the day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevo Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 0-3 2-1 marra etc are pretty desperate pathetic comments in any debate/argument with a Mackem. I'd happily get beat 10-0 off them if it meant we went on a CL-esq run of form and they sat rock bottom of the league. The cheesy quote of "It's a marathon not a sprint" comes to mind.

TheHoob Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 As if they are still going out about the loltidore vs arsenal one, the other defender who was running to stand on the goal line stopped when he heard the refs whistle, if he hadn't stopped then he would have saved his 'shot' comfortably. The Brown one was harsh but Larsson should have been off in the City game too. Only natural to be blaming everyone but themselves, the next phase is 'give youth a chance'.
