Guest DonaldGrump Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Ever Sunderland fan I speak to says they would rather have Sam WTF!? There is some logic to that. Under the current rules of engagement I would tend to agree with them.......but should he keep us up and go into the summer with Ashleys backing in the tranfer market then such sentiments would be laughable.

To be fair, the way Rafa coaches and tactics he employs he's basically a much more advanced version of Sam. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a bad observation but Sam has been able to bring some players in Rafa truly has to polish a turd without being able to buy the brasso to do it....thats the problem we have.

Stray Mackem Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 The dream is that the new Rafa team hump the groomers in the derby, all whilst there is 90 minutes of 200 dB peado chanting, aimed squarely at the fans, with bedsheets and everything. Make it happen. I hope so. I do enjoy the bed sheets at your place. I've got to be honest and say I'm not looking forward to the next few weeks because I think Benitez is your best appointment since Robson by a long way. I'm just hoping that even he can't do anything with that shambles of a defence of yours. We'll see......it should be fun, in a horrible way. Keep hearing off you mackems about the 'shambles of your defence' - I agree but still conceded one less than your one remember that. True, but we've picked up 13 points from our last ten games since Allardyce brought in is own players. I'm pretty confident we'll continue to pick up points, but now I think you lot might too, which wasn't the case after I watched your games last week. Like I say, at least it'll be interesting now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. If you stay up you have a cracking Premier League manager. If we stay up we have someone who'll get us mid table (not that I'd mind that).

last_monetarist Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 If both clubs pick up points over the next couple of months, reckon Palace and their fraud of a manager would be most susceptible to being dragged down, something that'll suit me just fine.

Tbh i'm just giddy as f*** that we got Rafa Benitez as our manager I don't blame you. If we got Benitez I'd be f*cking ecstatic. It sends out a statement if nothing else, something which Ashley has failed to do since he p*ssed off Keegan.

bigfella Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Been out with makem mates tonight, for the first time in a while. Grim. They really think that Johnson has done nothing wrong, indeed reckon that Cisse has done worse. Now not being a sun reader, I don't know all the nuances of this Cisse underage sex allegation, but wasn't he a similar age to the lass that he allegedly got pregnant? Johnson was nearly twice the age of the girl he has admitted to grooming. They even swapped pictures of the young lass in question, and if anyone thinks she looks "old enough" they're having a laugh - a pretty girl, but looks exactly her age.
