YNGLEGIONNAIRE Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 I've been to their place 3 or 4 times over the course of 2 seasons when they were in the Prem. as a work thing . It is so obvious that the fanbase there is of a much more basic , working class background than ours , the difference is so palpable in and around the two stadiums . Even taking the fact that I'm on enemy territory at their place into consideration , it just has the feel of a cold , deprived wasteland . I can't blame their fans for deserting in vast numbers to be honest . Swap ‘working class’ for 4th world troglodytes (Ooh, get me and my middle class England speak) and I reckon your bellend would remain unstung in that particular wasps’ nest, Legionnaire Tried similar kind of tag to describe them in the past and was set upon big style by the bad ass hipsters on here . Guess I'm a bad fit on "their" board . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NG32 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 They've literally ran out of steam, all those years chasing being 1pt better then NUFC at any cost has finally caught them up and killed them. This will get a lot better before it gets worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Running that through the translator I'm going with: Sunderland as a city and people have been and continue to be massively hit by deprivation and austerity, to an extent that Newcastle probably hasn't been, therefore it's understandable that they're not still packing the ground out week in week out.

Ameritoon Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 I am a little surprised this hasn't gotten a bit more coverage bar the occasional article in The Guardian. They were in the Premier League for a decade and have imploded in spectacular fashion. Darron Gibson was driving drunk hours before a game and hit his club's own supporters' cars Just seems like it's ripe for the media to talk about, but I guess they really are that unimportant.

The media may want to write more about their plight, but that would require readers/viewers to have an interest... which they don't. They'll disappear with a whimper and 95% of the football world won't even notice. But, you know, 6 in a row marra Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benwell Lad Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 It's incredible that they're only five points off safety! Aye it is, but it's two teams now. You'd probably have a better chance of catching one side 7 points ahead ?? Just can't see them getting 6 more points than Birmingham from now until the end.

Guest Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Yeah it's the fact every 1-2 weeks there seems to be another club pulls clear. Bolton & Hull for instance were in trouble at one stage but pulled away. Think these are gone with Barnsley & Burton. Would love Wigan to miss out on promotion and Birmingham to go down instead of Burton because I think those two would be clear favourites in League One and they'd get stuck down there.

Si Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 It's incredible that they are sliding towards oblivion and are more scared of looking "cringy" than fighting for their club. More worried about why no one is talking about their plight when they won't do anything themselves. That's why they deserve what's coming, because when the lights go out not one of them will have had the sense to light a candle. 6 in a row fuck the mags *bump* what was that?

Guest Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 They're trying to convince themselves it's because they're in the North East but you can bet there'd be a pretty big thing made of it if it were us in their position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
