In attendaces, success, wealth, even glamour, few clubs could match them (probably only Everton, Villa and Arsenal). That was then. Sunderland retain their (now ancient) history, but the only other element that suggests they are 'big' is their local support base. Right now they are minnows struggling to compete with Rotherham.

And I suppose every time the boos rang round when the players took a knee, it wasn't because they're a bunch of Neanderthal intolerant racists, it was because someone in one of the stands was on their phone looking at as photo of Jimmy Hill?

joeyt Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Was just thinking it's quite unusual for one of our clubs to have a manager poached by another club and then remembered Palace actually paid us for Alan fucking Pardew Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the 1950's is generous. Last trophy was mid 30s. Relegated in 58, 3rd bottom in 57 and 15th in the second division in 59 and 16th the following season. We had bigger attendances the vast majority of the time and when we didn't it was by 1k and won the cup three times that decae. Man United and Wolves winnning the league 3 times in the 50s have decent cause for complaint too. Edited August 28, 2022 by Wolfcastle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pokerprince2004 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 (edited) Even the official club statement sounds bitter as fuck, must be something in their water. Nee thanks for finally getting us out of League 1 after 5 years just that he knocked back a new offer. Was half expecting an #FTM at the end Edited August 28, 2022 by Pokerprince2004 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
