They don’t often mention that they were once fined a record amount (albeit the previous record fine was given to us) and relegated due to financial irregumarraties.

Even if it were true they'd still be being incredibly needily desperate. That they so desperatey want something to be true that isn't and would be no more than adopting a similar colour/design shirt anyway is tragic stuff. 

There probably will be some club somewhere that did copy the mackems shirt design and every other English clubs (Real Madrid copied Corinthian's ffs)

but something as simple as typing 'Bilbao original colours' into google gives the Southampton based student story (and the fact its the City's colours)

Sorry, I'm sure it's been explained earlier but what's their love in with Bilbao all about? Are they claiming that Bilbao took the oh so original idea of red & white stripes from our trailblazing, pioneering, European conquering neighbours, but it turns out it was actually Southampton?

 

Would it be like us trying to force an alliance with Juventus and subsequently deny all evidence that they took their kits from Notts County?

I see the "Newcastle's a shit hole" thread has been parsnipped now too. Vile bunch of arseholes.

 

That cant be a real thread surely! I had to go over to sunderland about a month ago, the train station actually stunk of piss at platform level, the ground level concourse was full of charvers riding their bikes around shrieking, and at street level, it was just a pissheads paradise!

 

Re: the Bilbao link, I'm going to guess its just a desperation to be recognised because they have fuck all else? Although being recognised because of having the same strip 120 years ago? Like, who would ever give a shit?

Think they're claiming there's something profound and especially special about them after all because another club chose the same colour and shirt design exclusively because of how inspired they were by them, despite the finite amount of colours and shirt designs to go around several thousand football clubs. Though turns out it was Southampton

 

Bilbao's first colours were blue and white halves ala Blackburn. Bet not one Blackburn fan gives a shit either way.

Sparta Rotterdam definitely adopted Sunderland’s colours

Yep, it was "Newcastle's a shit hole, prove me wrong" or some such. To be fair, the first 20 or so posts were pretty complimentary about the city but it soon descended into insults about the outlying areas. There was even a "Gosforth isn't as nice as it thinks it is"!!!! And there's nothing in Sunderland as bad as Walker, Benwell etc.

Fkn morons man.

Just mental how they keep telling themselves that they're a great investment for somebody with loads of money. When has this ever been the case for them? Billionaires weren't queueing up when they were in the Prem nevermind now. Loads of other clubs would be a better proposition than those fucks.
