Yeah but we won't be the only ones thinking that. Every club from 12th down in the PL will be after him too.
-
He did spend a lot less tbf to him Not that the man child point doesn't stand.
-
Happy birthday mate Great OP ewerk
-
FFS, is everyone on here except me an accountant of some sort? Is the world not oversubscribed with accountants?
-
Not sure about that one... he's ok but do we need him and could we get better next year?
-
Definitely not for a 5 year old IMO. I can see why your mate said that having seen it now. Go see it yourself first, at least.

Until we leave the EU, then we're all sorted on the issue of violating the rights of our citizenry.

Also and unrelated - Vader is Alt-Jedi: http://newsthump.com/2016/12/20/im-not-sith-im-alt-jedi-clarifies-darth-vader/

That actually sounds very probable.

The Guardian has done a promotional article on Newcastle and some of our local arts/restaurants/drinking/music scenes. I noticed Cal's Own was in there https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2016/dec/21/alternative-city-guide-newcastle-food-drink-bars-clubs-culture

For what?
-
Rogue One was, mercifully, a good film. Felt much more like 'Starwars' than TFA did. I now have some hope for the franchise again. Would probably give it 8.5/10
-
If Shelvey's claim was that the exchange never took place, then he wouldn't be able to bring that accusation. We probably would have had to raise it at the time anyway.
-
I absolutely do blame Cameron for this tbf. For the referendum, for austerity, for all of it. He is the personification of side of the establishment that brought us here.
-
Who do you blame? The people in power or the people who they failed? It's a tough one...
-
You joke but I am resolute in my belief that the establishment did indeed deliver us those things
-
I get what you're saying now yeah. And yeah, I know what you mean but if he'd lamped Shelvey he'd have been facing a hefty ban himself...
-
Yeah but being bald isn't the same as racism I guess. Racism is probably a more serious category of division than...hairism?
-
True, but it would see us into January and potential transfers to cover the issue. Although a 5 game ban seems to be a fairly trivial reason to buy someone, especially given that we're not actually imperilled in the auto-promotion stakes.
-
I half think that he had his previous red rescinded so that they could appear impartial for this one. At the end of the day, if he said something racist or whatever the claim is, he should be suspended for it. We're good enough to manage without him IMO. That said, does the 7 day appeal period mean he can play in our next game?
-
You could argue Chelsea won the CL that way too. Probably about right.
-
But surely the study isn't looking to determine any sense of objective reality, it's looking entirely at people's perceptions of something - of which their bias is fundamentally important, is it not?
-
Surely it's only meaningless if you consider the 'left' and the 'right' to be static points on the political spectrum. If they move with the mood and 'perception' of the people, as I suspect they do, then this graph would appear to suggest that where 'the people' view the centreground to be is to the left of where 'the media' as a collective position themselves. Why would the study be impossible to control?
-
The argument there I suppose would be that despite everything, Sunderland have superior 'season management' and do just enough to survive rather than look at the overall points tally.
-
Also interesting. So if I'm interpreting that correctly, it's setting out that we believe our media is too right wing? If so, why do we keep voting right wing... I know that should feel self explanatory, but if we're astute enough to see that it IS right wing, how come we aren't voting contrary to that? Or is the argument that we're acknowledging the right wing bias but voting with it anyway.
