I mean even if you're trying not to be biased, like both sets of fans are.  I am really struggling to see how they are the more attractive option?  So it seems to be the training ground is owned by them and is decent.  Is that basically the long and short of it, then? 

 

To say their ground is better and their fanbase is equal or better, is just laughable and clearly not true.  Newcastle and SJP are known around the world, with SJP being packed out most weeks.  Sunderland and the SoL are neither of those things :lol:

St James might be lopsided but it's by far the superior stadium.  You regularly hear pundits, opposition managers and players commenting on it.  It also has character and history.  The only thing that gives their dump any character is the pink seats and the pasty wrappers swirling round the pitch, if it wasn't for them you could easily mistake it for Southampton or Stoke's stadium.

Depends what you want I guess....Sunderland is primed and ready for a revolution and for somebody to make themselves an absolute legend as an owner.....Newcastle is on a hiding to nothing unless you have the really big money to throw at it like the Arabs as massive spending in the Prem will buy you mid table these days.

The fact visiting vans stay in Newcastle, the fact mackems come to Newcastle to eat, shop and drink and the fact half their players live outside of sunderland should tell you all you need to know about THAT place...

 

Its not worth investing in at all, not even as a city because it has literally nowt going for it. Roker Marina is canny mind...

Wijnaldum's reaction where he said 'wow' and smiling like an excited school kid was brilliant when he saw it for the first time.

It also rendered him complete dogshit in any other stadium.

There were posts on there today about the possibility of increasing their stadium capacity to 65,000 plus.

I kid you not.

 

Are they going to make it into a secure mental health unit?

Reading the Aluko, Sampson and England ladies thread over at RTG. Some of the posters... apparently casual racism is okay.

 

Being of African descent and getting offended because your manager has made a joke about Ebola is PC gone mad.  Apparently.

In fairness, we have just as many bigoted arseholes among our ranks. I should know, I've argued with lots of them! :(

Not as many as RTG, but yeah we've had a couple in the past on here (and maybe even current posters). I've not felt out of place as a brown dude on here, and I've been here eons. Except maybe in the Lush Lasses thread, you guys like your women too skinny.
