Their highest home attendance this season was for Beyoncé.

One of my favourites in that thread is someone claiming Tyne and Wear was invented by a mag so they would be forced to pay for our Metro.

Instead of a tiny car delivering the match ball to the centre spot, it should be nestled beside a dog in a buggy?

It would but Gateshead is in county Durham marra.

Cher is like Trigger’s broom though.

They've fucked this one up too. Working their way down a list, can only be a matter of time before it's Bruce's turn to talk turkey with Levy.

This again

"The hat is tainted with bloodmoney!! Sportswashing marras. FTM and Fuck Bruno with his tyrannical, murderous hat!"

When I think of Tina Turner the thing that comes to mind is 80's and 90's DJs, usually on Top of the Pops, inserting an almost contractual 'Still looks great.' either just before or after her singing and as a teen you'd scratch your head a bit.

Probably for the best. Every time I see his name I go into full Beavis & Butthead mode.

When it comes to being grumpy, you are simply the best, better than all the rest tbh.

Your cheese doesn't need boards when it comes in individual plastic wrappers.

Thank god the Doll got destroyed before they got their hands on that. Scorched earth policy!

I remember seeing them live in the nineties. I didn't have a ticket but slipped the ticket collector a pound at the door and he let me in. It was quid pro quo.

Why don’t they just start saying you have to be born on the centre circle of SJP to be a mag, anywhere else you should actually be a Sunderland fan cos they said so. They don’t live in reality do they

There's a play on the Empire about their club at the moment, and what do you know, apparently if you are from County Durham, including Gateshead, you should be a massive fan of lads or seomething. That means YOU Gemmill.

Deep down the people of Sunderland know it’s not a real city don’t they?

They should have had Dan Burn lying on the ground in front of them all from end to end.

Representation is important! CT's son needs role models to show him that a chronic lisp is no barrier to being thimply the betht.

Still has her trademark excruciating circumlocutions and lack of punctuation throughout. Hopefully it was as painful to write as it is to read She does actually get the area though Tbf and the stuff about local businesses and the Emirates flights etc is spot on. Not to mention the bit about the north east being patronised. Which could just as easily be applied to her colleagues at The Guardian as football pundits elsewhere

Dress him up in Howe's normal match day attire and he'd get away with it on the long shots. Of course it would be a dead giveaway when he runs onto the pitch after we score and starts vigorously slapping the heads of our players.

Those projected pots for the Champions League will have a lot of teams not wanting to draw us. I guess its a bit like the premier league clubs not wanting to draw the mackems in the cup?

So Gateshead is theirs cos its county Durham. But also, apparently everywhere their little river runs through is also theirs? And look at the cathphrases they're coming out with? We're fucked lads, may as well just pack it in now.

Fans would be a good start.

I hope that claim is based on similar rigorous historical research processes to those employed by the Bilbao Black Cats

The other day I had Radio 2 on while I was making tea. They had the bloke from Creedence on and they played his version of Status Quo's Rocking All Over The World. As clear as you like, the thought came to me: this is Renton's favourite song of all time, and this is his favourite ever version of it. Make of that what you will, but it's an undeniable fact.

Talksport's go-to interview when Tina Turner dies: Chris Eubank.

If the missus asks what I've got her for her birthday or Christmas I always say chocolates and a dildo for the same reasons and I always get the look.

I know there’s a big U21s tournament coming up but you’ve got to feel for some of them not getting a look in against completely lacking opposition like Malta and North Macedonia. Maybe not in the defence but the likes of Ramsey, Gibbs-White and even Curtis Jones have an argument that they should have been integrated. Mind, at least Eric Dier isn’t in there

The Guardian is terrible for patronising the North East IMO. Whenever there's any article about anything up here it comes across in that sort of forced 'oh they'll feel really special that we're paying attention to them' sort of way. It's one of the reasons NUFC becoming strong again is so important in some ways - now they have to talk about us on equal terms because we've insisted upon it, it would make them unserious professionals not to do so. I'm not a fan of LT as I actually think her entire role in the Guardian is a personification of that patronising position. She's a weaker journalist who writes pieces of very little substance beyond stating the obvious - but she's from 'up here' and they give her a bit of space to write about us and Sunderland, so that's all ok. We should be grateful. It's the reason I picked up a subscription to the Athletic tbh, at least you feel like the people writing about us in there care about proper analysis of the club.

Aye exactly. It’s also going to be very interesting, given this is lower than the Chelsea and Spurs deals what happens when those deals come to an end with us possibly being a CL side and neither of those being involved, I wonder if we turn around and challenge the fair market value of their deals . Just turn the screw on the cunts after we cut off CL revenue, then lower their sponsorships, and tbf we’d have a lot of support from sides like Brighton, Villa, West Ham etc who would happily see teams like Spurs have their deals lowered

A vintage bottle of blue wkd, aged in an alley, for the special vip customers. Callum the staffy will be wearing his tuxeyyydo, and beyy on best behavior, you best fuckin believe he won’t bite any nippahs. Get yersel a plant dog with some extra fuckin crispy onions and give that Beyoncé a bit of casual racist support like “she’s areyyyt furra…”. Then as the vips leave the black cats clerrrb you can see Callum rutting some of the lerrrcal stray Alsatian’s, a real special treat and really classy like. FTMs.

a penalty for no contact whatsoever. not even remotely close to. fucking madness.

Same as their club- fuck all.

Not that any of this ludicrous shit is going to happen but what the fuck do think it would achieve anyway?

This has got me really anxious. I'm Blaydon born and bred and I've just found out I'm supposed to be a mackem.

It'll be the cryptobros intentionally cutting the service temporarily to skim off your profits.

I can't possibly think why.

Probably been bribed.

Willock's injured and Longstaff only just back, so neither would be appropriate. However, there are surely better options than those picked or does he just keep on picking those he has already picked because this is his last go and he can't really be bothered one way or the other?

I pity the poor fucker who’s job it was to jet wash all the skid marks off the seats before normal people used them.

I wonder which one of sunderland’s top-end hotels she stayed at?
