  1. Are they renowned for their sense of humour? I know the Scousers are, and the Mancs are renowned for an abundance of self confidence, but I've never heard anyone mention Sunderland fans famous sense of humour. To be honest I've never heard a neutral fan mention them except with reference to us.
  2. I'm ok with that, it'll give my new neighbours and I something to bond over.
  3. Cheers. Will send you a link because we're facebook fwiends. Remember, no cat crap.
  4. You mean £70k https://www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/football/sunderland-afc/jack-rodwell-better-wake-up-to-the-fact-no-one-wants-him-sunderland-fans-react-on-twitter-to-midfielder-staying-at-club-1-8994390 Wasn't there an image doing the rounds last season showing they'd only made a profit on 2 or 3 players in flipping ages? If you chalk off home-grown players (good fortune rather than considered recruitment) I'm guessing their profit must be tiny or non-existent. It's not the be all and end all, obviously, but for a club to be plummeting don the leagues it's a good indicator as to where it all went wrong. I've tried googling it, but the only place it seems to be is the sunderland echo site, and am I shite registering to look at that.
  5. Wanted to let him know which part of Bramhall I'm in, without giving the address to you mischievous bellends. I could do without jiffybags of cat crap posted through the letterbox, thank you very much.
  6. Bramhall, same road as the Esso Garage and the HSBC bank.
  7. It may not have been an intentional strike to the face, but I'm saying that all the other teammates have seen in a big thug of a bloke apparently come into contact with Gayle's face. They'll obviously launch to his defence, and also try and get the defender sent off. Despite what Goodman says.
  8. Is that Don Goodman? What a fucking bellend. Carrying on like no team would be incensed after their striker was pushed in the face by a thug of a centre back?
  9. Not a single shot in the second half
  10. Yeah a mate of mine is also going through the process and has had a nightmare. House being valued £18k under the asking price, which affects his loan to value enough to knacker his mortgage offer. That's after 2 houses falling through as well. Feel for the lad, but that's not going to stop me getting him to help us move.
  11. To be fair, there's a few who'd have more posts than me if they hadn't flounced, changed their name or whatever.
  12. Just exchanged on my first ever house. For all the horror stories I've heard about the process, it was fairly straight forward for us to be honest. touch wood.
  13. Not even sure how many posts I've made. But it's enough to call you all cunts with impunity.
  14. That League One is shit. Sunderland are shit too, but I've no idea how they'll do so to say they're likely to get back up is premature.
  15. You saw how poor the likes of Burton and Rotherham were when we played them though, surely? The bulk of League One teams are as far from Derby as the bulk of Championship sides are from Everton. (They're probably a bad example because they're doing so poorly this year, but you get the jist, right?)
  16. Will they? There weren't many who thought they'd get relegated this season (myself included). They'll be going down with Burton who've experience in that league, plus 1 of Bolton, Birmingham, Reading (and maybe Hull). They might shift Rodwell and Cattermole, but who's left? They could be down there with a club like Blackburn or Wigan... so it's not like they're nailed on favourites.The standard of players they now have is League 1 level, but not even good League 1 level. They're bereft of confidence, with a tradition of failure ingrained in the club. They've won fewer games than anyone else in the country. When the exodus occurs they're not going to be flush with cash to spend on talent, unless Short funds it. The money that they'll get from parachute payments and player sales won't even clear their external debt. Especially given the crap they've got on the playing staff. An ageing squad of overpaid turd. They need an overhaul but haven't the money to do that. I've been guilty of overestimating them, I won't be doing it again.
