At this point they’re firmly the backwater hicks and hillbillies we paint them out to be. A perceived average league season for us is equal to their best achievement for half a century, without them having to navigate our injuries, a Champions League campaign and two cup quarter finals. It feels we’re back to the mid 90s where our interest is elsewhere and they remain the bitter ex, or the creepy Baby Reindeer-esque stalker type.

If we do win it I expect this’ll be the trophy photo and we’ll all be on the phone to the Samaritans at full time. Perhaps we should just decline to take part. Someone better tell West Ham then… seemed to be a lot of interest when they won it… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donut Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Can't wait for the debacle on RTG when they announce the new head coach. It's such a reality check for the deluded idiots each time they announce some random below average journeyman who's done fuck all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucasol Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Got to love the hillbillies having a thread on our match h. Just for context, the £2.5m we’re being paid for the 2 insignificant friendlies in Oz is: - 25% of their gate receipts for their whole season; or - 25% of their tv revenue for the whole season; or - 95% of the revenue they made on their retail operations; or - 30% of their year-round conferencing, banqueting and hospitality revenues. It must genuinely eat them from the inside out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Sounds like big trouble at the bungalow with crowds stuck outside, apart from the usual metro shambles, the delay was due to staff at the ground 'managing the ingress' of people coming in. Probably down to the difference between managing 45,000 tickets and 45,000 actually attending Brewce Springsteyen has beyn delayed marra Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 It's an absolutely awful city for big events, like. The venue is fine but public transport links are abysmal, made even worse by the fact that a big chunk of people going are leaving the city on the same night rather than staying over.

Only ever been to 1 concert there and the venue is also shite for music, nothing biased here also think St James is shit having experienced the Sam Fender gig last year.

Went for the England v Australia game there a while back. Left straight from work with dad (over 2 hours before kick-off) from Gateshead, missed the first 10 minutes. We decided to call it a night around 75 minutes just to make sure we got home. Never again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the Sam fender gig was great once you were actually in the stadium in terms of music. The concourses for food, drink, toilets etc were laughably bad though.

Decky Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 I've taken a good few of my mates over from Ireland to Newcastle loads of times and for one reason or another we've ventured into Sunderland a few of those times and they think its some sort of club rivalry banter when I tell them the mackems think their city is better than Newcastle. They think its a complete and utter shit hole and absolutely love Newcastle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 One of the lads I work with was out in Sunderland a few months ago, they went into The Blandford (Sunlin equivalent of Butlers or The Clock) and a lass asked them if they wanted to buy any aftershave. His pal said "what have you got?" and she said "well, tell me what you want and I'll be back in 15 minutes" This is the same pub where a student famously went in for a quick drink waiting for his bus and was promptly thumped and knocked out by one of the regulars for absolutely no reason at all.

They've basically had since then to do their homework. The fact they've appointed no one despite their sesson finishing 3 weeks ago tells me they have absolutely no plan at all.
