Every fanbase has them but they've got a canny bit more than their fair share of sad sacks. Fuck them, the Duckworths, Kevin and Sally Webster.

 

i liked the stone rose's first album. but that's about where it ends.

Their patter is on a par with fucking Gail Platt's the boring cunts.

Read some of their match thread, seems the only reason we won is because they were shit, Weghorst isn't very good and De Gea can't pass. They couldn't work out that the reason they were losing the ball so often is because we forced De Gea into booting it long where our players could out muscle their forwards, or because we were snapping at the heels of every player for 90 minutes. 

 

We could and should have won by 4 or 5 goals and on another day we would have. Longstaff was unlucky with his long range shot and the one early doors where he couldn't get it out of his feet. You'd have expected one goal from either Isak's header or Willock's rebound and against a lesser 'keeper it would have come. 

 

Honestly, think the only reason they're policing the celebrations or whining about the post-match comments is because they're bored of blaming their players/managers but they're still hurting.

The thing is though, if you finish in the top 4 of the Premier League you are arguably one of the top 8 sides in Europe.

We might lack squad depth and experience in Europe, but we would be a team that others wouldwant to avoid

Did you seen what the likes of Man City and Napoli were doing to some of the sides in the last round?  Not suggesting for a minute that we’re anywhere near competitive with them atm but ffs, we’re miles better than some of the dross getting out of the groups. It’s just a matter of increasing the squad with enough quality players to complete in the league & cups too

Bit of a tangent, but I think that's somewhere we're going to struggle. Established teams can rely on their 4th or 5th choice striker against FC Plovmadov, we don't have an established U21 squad of any quality. So we'd need to rely on whoever isn't shoved out the door in the summer.

Yeah that’s fair. We got into the top four with Chris Wood playing half our games though. The standard isn’t as high as we think. It’s the amount of games that we’ll struggle with iyam

FC Plovmadov have never appeared in the main stages of any European competition, therefore rendering your entire point, if not existence, moot.

It would be hilarious seeing Jacob Murphy teapotting off some Slavic monster in the Champions League.

Can't believe you don't know Plovmadov's 2004 tilt at Champions League qualifying rounds

Obviously I'm au fait with that effort but their European naivety against a side of Club Brugge's quality was evident for all to see. Hence why I said 'main stages'.

You did say "Any European Competition" though, and they were in the Fairs Cup/UEFA Cup/Europa League loads.

And never made it past the qualifying rounds. Don't make me hold up the sign.

FC Plovmadov have a long and storied friendship with Sunderland dating back several centuries. Marra.

Just good planning and subtle automation. While reports are running I come on here and school fools.

 

It's what fish do, tbh, hardly boast worthy
