i'll consider laughing about kaboul when williamson is at another club, closely followed by f***ing fistpump

 

until such time we've got f*** all to laugh about

 

I'll stop laughing when he actually signs rather than his agent telling them "don't even think about it".

BREAKING: Sunderland sign defender Younes Kaboul from Tottenham on four-year deal. #SSNHQ

 

4 year deal :lol:  Will be utter baggage by year 3

 

That's being generous

He was a decent CB when he was younger and interested. I'd wager he's now got his feet up now the ink is dry on his last big contract.

 

Absolute madness to offer a 4 year deal to a 29 year old bloke who's played 29 games in the last 3 seasons. He might be reasonably motivated for a year but once they change managers again he'll get a sicknote and milk it imo.

Newcastle's game in Sacramento heading for sell out but Sunderland fail to capture public's imagination

 

Newcastle United's game with Sacramento Republic will be a sell out on Saturday night.

 

The Californian club are still very much on a high after beating Newcastle’s North-East rivals Sunderland at Bonney Field earlier this week.

 

But the game failed to capture the imagination of the Sacramento public and the stadium was only half full.

 

Local paper the Sacramento Bee reported: “The match, won on Cameron Iwasa’s 58th-minute goal, was played in a stadium that was only half full (5,700), a shocker for a team that has sold out almost all of its matches at the 11,442-seat Cal Expo facility.”

 

And Republic chiefs slashed ticket prices for Sunderland’s match with Mexican side Club De Football Pachuca on Friday night to just $14 dollars after low sales.

 

Republic president Warren Smith said: “Sunderland had talked to us early, then appeared to be headed to Africa.

 

“They came back to us after we added Newcastle, but they also needed a second match (Sunderland-Pachuca).

 

“We asked the staff, and they were 50-50 about doing those matches.

 

“We’re growing a brand, so it’s not all about making money.

 

“Sometimes you take risks.”

 

However, the home club will reap the benefits of a sell out crowd.

This is what we want to see from our Chief Sports Writer - bit of Mackem baiting when it's quiet, rather than badly spelled articles about what 5 things we learned from the u18s game.

Bet that article has gone down well on SMB forum. ;D

 

Wey, there were only three separate threads about it so I'd say the response is 'middling'.

 

Bet the replies count from the 3 threads combined is well into the hundreds.

A more than decent player in his day, but he's past it now surely. A typical mackem signing of the past 5 years. They should have been all over the Evans signing giving their links etc.
