  1. Homo deus was a struggle at times yet still interesting enough to want to plough on. (Read it vast majority of times before bed and was nodding more than churchill the dog). Basically the futures fucking bleak for most of mankind especially knackers like me.
  2. One plus one starting to be a little dodgy when charging, sometimes fine, odd time taking much longer than usual. Battery or charger? Anyone still using theirs? Can't really afford a new one and everything else on it is perfectly fine.
  3. That super Brighton v Palace rivalry that's just mad intense guys has an extremely large amount of empty seats and is flat as a fart.
  4. I used to drink the odd bottle of McEwan's export as one the bars in Walkergate had it at about 60p a bottle for a while and I was on the bones of me arse at the time. Export was 'ok' from memory, the scotch wasn't fantastic but I actually enjoyed it better than the lager I was forcing myself to have on Saturday.
  5. BBC presenter: ".....and just before we start the fourth round draw here's some numbers to look out for, Man United are 12, Chelsea are 23, Liverpool are 28, Giant killers Newport are 39, some other div 3 team are 45 if they get through their replay with a championship club and we won't bother telling you any other cunts numbers because frankly, we couldn't give a fuck."
  6. My first thought was 'it can't hurt us any more than the current set up, we get absolutely fuck all, no pens, instant yellows for first bookable offences, opposition allowed about three before the card comes out, no pens for, no problems awarding against, etc' then I woke up and smelled the coffee. I've no doubt we'll still get fucked with no real benefits to it.
  7. I had a couple of pints of McEwan's best Scotch on Saturday! I was amazed it was still getting sold as I've never seen it for years so had a few for the nostalgia. One of the lads had a pint of ex in the same bar! (tbf it was the clock and it's still 1991 in there).
  8. Looks like it'll be Byker sands again, this year.
  9. Don't be so keen to look for silly rules. FFS, let the your young'un stand on a seat and don't worry about it. If he happens to block someone's view then sit him down. Otherwise use your noggin.
  10. I've never particularly took to him either. I had doubts about him as a manager before he took the Sunderland job and you just have to question his decision making knowing the shit they're in. I'd definitely go with ego too. You look at McCarthy and Reid and can say they were likeable as blokes if you take away the Sunderland angle. Coleman doesn't come across as likeable or any good either. Think he lucked out with Wales in the Euros big time with Speed's crop.
  11. Nerves, especially early on. Hard to be too judgemental but at the same time him and lascelles going off gave them a bit of a boost. Once we scored we looked the difference in leagues that there obviously was but the second half was pretty poor to put it mildly even allowing for the 'seeing it out' mentality.
  12. Even funnier having just had a look on RTG.
  13. SAFC announce the player doesn't want to play for the them anymore according to look north, sorry, look shite. (It wasn't Dawn Thewlis who read the statement out).
  14. I think FFP would fuck Sunderland a lot more in the FL than in the premier. I'm sure I read somewhere that on best guess estimates they're at the end of their 3 year loss allowance, they will be penalised if Short did spend more than they make. The FL can and have in the past docked clubs points for various misdemeanors including administration. So that's one of the main reasons they haven't spent as in the summer they'd have been well aware of that and docking points would've seriously hampered any promotion push or, like now, if they tried to buy their way out of trouble it could've risked a points deduction now or next season which again would either relegate them now or put them on their way next year. All of that supposes they have the money to spend but they can't, the truth is that they couldn't spend even if there was no FFP restrictions. They are fucked. Why would Short effectively sell their debt to an outsider instead of sorting it himself? It doesn't make much sense to me unless he can't afford it. Either way, they can't spend their way out of trouble. They're fucked.
  15. It's ok everyone, he told sky sports he knows he's made mistakes in the past but he didn't say which mistakes they are and he'll keep doing them again regardless. WTF are we moaning about?
  16. Puff. Not you, Fish, the dragon. 'Puff the MAGic dragon'.
  17. Fuck all to them, man. How many players do they have on their books?
  18. I hated Luton Town tbh. ID card scheme, placca pitch, away fan ban, Tory MP as a chairman, managing to win a cup while we couldn't despite them being a set of cunts and having Steve Foster wearing a fucking stupid headband, ginger Hartson and kerb crawling David Pleat knocking out one of the few teams we've had that should've been easily good enough to win a trophy. Fuck em. (Also, isn't that little scroat 'Tommy Robinson' from there? If true, still cunts. Fuck em some more).
  19. You're still bamboozled by Jessica Chastain's tits so your judgement is flawed.
  20. This is getting more and more like Dummett-gate from the Fish, tbh. Shambolic.
  21. These 100 people, were they work colleagues of yours his?
  22. 08-09 us and Boro relegated. 88-89 us and Boro relegated. 87-88 Sunderland relegated to the third division 17-18......? (Just saying).
