I still can't quite get my ahead around the fact that Charnley still has a job you know. As good as this Rafa outcome is, I can't think of any reason he should be retained, aside from one; and that is that he never asked to be MD, and is as much a hostage of Ashley as we are. He's been promoted into a role he doesn't want, and isn't capable of, and Ashley just won't let him quit. That's literally the only circumstance under which his being retained would make sense.

That line was asking for a comment like this.

It just launched X Box One compatibility yesterday if you fancy a game some time

I'm feeling extraordinarily confident about next season personally. Bring it on, it's about time we handed out a few batterings. Spurs aside.

Can you imagine I think the whole fanbase would disband instantaneously.

I thought McClaren would do better than he did tbh. Wasn't expecting anything majorly impressive but certainly didn't think we'd be battling relegation. After John Carver, I think hiring literally anyone vaguely competent was enough for me to be optimistic. Sadly, McClaren wasn't vaguely competent.

My sister's husband's cousin is Martin Freeman That's pretty damn elongated.

I'm actually kind of amazed by this.

Which in turn must be why video game developers dispense with female armour. All makes sense now.

I actually think there's room here to say we were poor all over the pitch frankly. Fish's post does make sense though.

Just... What the fuck... Dude...

You'd think he'd get more money in one season in the PL than he would in two in the SPL mind...

Generic small time football blather thread 2015/16
Rayvin replied to The Fish's topic in Newcastle Forum
tellingly, Liverpool have signed a keeper already. Says it all about the 'faith' in mignolet. -
2wo?

Aye if it isn't announced by then I think we can all assume it isn't happening.

Ant but he seems reluctant these days more's the pity.

Good, the last thing we want is Villa ending up with someone competent.

The only thing with this is why Rafa would bother going through all of that. If he'd come right out and said he wasn't interested, there's not a soul amongst our support who would have blamed him. And even if they had, why would he care? The delay can only be because he's weighing up his options with respect of another club (Everton I reckon) and keeping us on side as a fall back or because he's genuinely thinking of staying.

Is it not compatible across X-Box and Steam? That's fucking bizarre if true... I've recently started moving into ranked modes and am presently stuck with most other people in the Challenger ranks. Are you higher than that? I think if I ever got out of there I'd probably avoid going back on ranked ever again so as not to lose it.

Well congrats or whatever the socially appropriate statement of well wishing is in this instance.
-
Is it a relief? Or more celebratory?
-
That'd be a blow but you can't blame the guy.
-
I can see where you're coming from, like. That said, he did originally say two weeks didn't he? They've got a few days yet I guess.

He's making a valiant fucking effort over there mind. Has to be said like, they're really trying to see this idea that we're all devastated by relegation. And the thing about roping other clubs in is also bizarre. I think that's actually the most significant thing going on there actually - can anyone remember a time when we were reeling off other clubs who didn't like Sunderland? It's not just about us, they have a massive inferiority complex about everyone, and seem to be constantly striving for validation from other team's fanbases. I know that's been said on here before like but some of those threads are really hammering it home. Bottom line, they're just really insecure... which is kind of sad when you think about it, on that sort of scale.

Dammit, they're onto me...
