I do find it funny that they fall over themselves saying Benitez took us down but seem to be doing everything to put this at Short/Bain/Moyes/Grayson's door even though Coleman has had plenty of time and a transfer window to try and get these on a run.

So, some of us older NUFC supporters will remember when them shithouses last dropped into the third tier. Much merriment was made by NUFC's support. So much so that NUFC's support was very much in attendance in that relegation play off game at Roker Park v Cascarino lead Gillingham.

First and probably the only time I've seen three sets of supporters in one ground. NUFC given their own section in the clock stand (to the left of the Roker End as you face the pitch.) Others intermingled with the unwashed as the gates closed on the NUFC section well before kick off. Myself included.

 

So, should we go back this season when the inevitable happens? I'll be sorely tempted. 

 

If you do go this season, try make sure we are safe first

That's a salient point. In Rafa we trust eh?

 

This is the real reason you came into this thread :lol:

As hilarious as the current plight of Sunderland really is I cannot help but, feel sorry for some of the fans, I have some mates who are top blokes but, just happen to be Sunderland fans.  They are absolutely in bits about the state of their club, these are lads that never once had a go at me about being a Newcastle fan during the height @SportsDirect Arena or the two relegations.  Lads that you can have a proper conversation about football with, everyone will know people like this and it is them I feel really sorry for.  My mates even sympathise over Ashley when their owner is arguably putting their club into an even more dire position that ours is....

 

So my point is that every time I see Sunderland have been beaten again I laugh inside, check the table to look at how dreadful their situation is and then remember how my mates feel and suddenly wonder how they might escape the oblivion of a second relegation....  I will be honest though, if it wasn't for the couple of mates I am talking about here I would be loving this, especially after reading and hearing the shite spouted by some Sunderland supporters over us in recent years.

I know mackems like this too.

 

It doesn't change my opinion on their club though. I hope they fall through leagues and go out of business. Horrible tin pot club.

It's horrible seeing any club screwed over by their ownerowner or ran in such a shitty way but I just can't muster any sympathy for them.

 

I think it's the stupid things like FTM and 92ers and Rafa relegated you, sort of thing that really does it for me. No, they can  rot in he'll as far as im concerned. I won't be a cunt to any of the mackems I know like because thats not how I want our fans perceived.

i'm always full of praise for fans, those that bother to go, we have a rivalry which is fierce and i'm with the others, i have no time for wankers spouting the shite they say.......i know a lot of canny mackems who are no where near as cunts they are on an internet forum, most of the stuff on that RTG is clearly put on to wind up NUFC fans who are daft enough to go on.ive no sympathy however for them at all, they can disappear forever and i would not bat an eyelid over it.

 

its hilarious watching their downfall and the fact the seem to still think they are a PL  side and can't accept they are on the brink of going out of existence,fingers crossed it happens.  O0

Think it goes beyond that, they really are obsessed...

 

https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/the-french-national-team.1419102/page-2

 

Fairly unassuming thread about the French national side. Any other football forum would have the maturity to discuss the talent that France has to offer ahead of the WC and their chances of winning it - clearly the intended point of the thread.

 

Just descends into naming French players that have played for us  ???

I still crease at them calling themselves the Black Cats. It's like the least popular kid at school telling everyone to call him Blade.

:lol:  Absolutely! 

 

I can’t work out which of their self-styled names are the shittest, The Black Cats or The Stadium of Light?  Both fucking horrendous!  ;D

Beleaguered Sunderland put up for sale — for less than Arsenal spent on Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

 

Owner Ellis Short just wants out now and will take £50m to be rid of North-East giants staring at back-to-back relegations

 

Crisis club Sunderland are up for sale for £50million.

 

Manager Chris Coleman admitted on Monday that owner Ellis Short has fallen out of love with football, and appealed for a new tycoon to take charge.

 

Years of bad decisions and poor form on the pitch has left the Wearsiders facing consecutive relegations.

 

MirrorSport has been told that at one point, while they were in the Premier League, Sunderland were GIVING AWAY 9,000 tickets per game for free.

 

Current MD Martin Bain has scrapped that drain on income, but he also inherited several bad deals, a huge wage bill and spent 18 months cleaning it all up ready for a sale.

 

US-based billionaire Short wants out and has effectively handed over the keys to Bain.

 

A source said: “The club has very good infrastructure and nothing hiding under the bonnet now. The club needs a buyer.”

 

That £50m pricetag is less than Arsenal spent on a single player last month — £56m striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

 

Bain became the “frontman” for crowd abuse during the weekend defeat by Brentford but has had to slash Short’s subsidy, which at one point ran at £25m a year, and has little leeway to invest in players.

 

Sunderland now have a £35m wage bill and have another season with a £35m parachute payment from the Premier League.

 

One interested German buyer failed to prove they were serious, but the hunt is on for another.

At £50m (plus the £70m of debt Short will want back) the loyal fans should be trying to buy a percentage of the club with whoever does buy them.

 

Not sure 10,000 of them would be enough to by a reasonable share (unless one or two  of the 10,000 actually there on match day is way above average in terms of wealth).

Such denial on RTG

Fake news. Claims the club gave away 9,000 tickets last season for games which comes across as nonsense so it's hard to take the rest of the article seriously.

 

  Quote
I certainly don’t believe the 9,000 tickets a match give away

9000 tickets?Mag loving Mirror will now use this to highlight the passion of the Geordie Nation

Nothing more than a mag rumour.

 

And that's just page 1  ;D

I’m still bewildered at them calling themselves Mackems. What sort of mental gymnastics do you have to go through for a piss take on a dumb-sounding phrase, in a equally dumb-sounding Wearside twang (Mak’ ‘em ‘n’ tak’ ‘em), to become something you identify yourself as?  :icon_scratch:
