Basically pif paying for the privilege of having the WC and funding our rivals if we want to do well in the future.

The game where Dillon put the icing on his season's cake by running from the half way line all on his lonesome then ran straight towards the keeper before forgetting to either round him or chip him or touch the ball away before trying to get a free kick/pen/sending off. Went to quite a few away games that year but missed the very few victories until this one where I really didn't fancy our chances after bull put four away at SJP on NYD. When the useless mackem bastard fluffed that chance to make it two and seal the win I feared the worst but we improbably held on for the win. TSB!!! The bank that likes to saaaay.... Fuck no.

Must've been the season KK took over they beat us, sure they had a similar strip? Think it was one of the games in a bad run after KK's good start where we went to shit?

Definitely 89-90, can't say for sure the score but think Craig's right, 0-1 if the brain's still functioning?

Aye Brighton, I was at that game and the strip was a bit laughed at.

They're football historians.

Saw a group of lasses in Berwick with one lad who I assumed were getting the train down for the Sam Fender concert as one of the lasses was wearing a NUFC shirt. Nobody applauded though so it was a sombre sight and I'm sure any onlookers were secretly disapproving whilst admiring the Sunderland shirt which nobody wore.

I did search for a wrap of speed in images but didn't find anything suitable.

Hope you get something suitable, Andrew. My missus seems to get rare side effects to medical stuff from time to time although I just put that down to her female stubbornness.

"Ah think someone is very close to ordering a Moothful of Ryder Knuckle off the 'Be very careful Menu'. Capiche wor kid?"

"I'm your father, Lewk." "NOOOOOooooooo! Mam said me dad is Mr Jenkins who keyps coming around to fix mam's washing machine every weyk."

In a galaxy not too far away..... STAR WARS A brand no hope..... Lewk Bullknaka and his fwends are in a battle with North Shields star, Sam Fender and the eehval Saudi empire, Fender alongside the feared Darth Beheadie Eddeh will try and crush the rebels without a clew forever. May the force of their 104 football alliances be with them!! "Stay classy, marra"

Aye, they aren't all batshit but too many are. I wonder what the saner ones make of it? I fucking cringe at some of our fans at times but that's just because they're cringey, some of theirs are beyond cringey and are just plain deranged.

Tells them he's quite happy to walk from the station, honestly doesn't mind at all especially on a nice day but if they didn't insist and give him a lift anyway there'd be fucking hell on and HR would be barricading their doors by now.

It's like an illness with some of them.

Sunderland: Eric Gates. Sebastian Larsson Stephane Sessegnon Michael Bridges Billy Hughes NUFC: Beardsley Gascoigne Ginola Waddle Ben Arfa Very hard to pick a combined five out of those two lists but I've had a go so don't all pile on at once, it's just a football opinion after all. NUFC and SAFC combined radio Newcastle most skillful players based on Gabbiadini and Howey's lists: Beardsley Gascoigne Ginola Waddle Ben Arfa Some tough decisions but these five just shade it. Didn't think it was going to be so hard tbh.

That's what McMenemy said his task was and he definitely delivered although he had to get Stokoe to close the deal at the very end iirc?

We were definitely in for Kennedy who decided to play for his team rather than his old club, (probably had bad memories of our old board?) anyway he was, like Gates, going to the third division whilst we finished 8th in division one. A lucky escape for us. If Charlton wanted Gates in 84 that would've been a decent signing then but seeing the forwards he bought he seems a little small and mobile for Charlton?

Sums up their patheticness quite well I think?

And NOBODY would believe me!

Bit disappointed my Tonali song got zapped. #sadFaceEmoji

Obligatory 'I didn't even know they were playing?' post.
