I suppose I WAS a fan. In the past a defeat would send me spiralling into a foul mouthed irrational tirade spoilt brat. Sleepless nights, arguments with town supporters etc. Even when I first started out on this forum, after another Sunderland blow, I would type out some right childish rubbish, something that days later, after I calmed down, I was embarrassed with. Now I just laugh it off. Your post has made me realise that I'm not a FAN anymore. More of a follower than a fan. And to be honest I prefer it that way, it hurts a lot less.
I've had a feeling for weeks this was coming. I've even had doubts this "German consortium" even existed. A ruse by Short to save money over the summer and appoint a cheap manager just as the players are returning to training.
Doing this during a transfer window has to be one of the most stupid things Short has done yet. The bloke is just one **** up rolling onto the the next. He deserves to lose every penny he put into this club, unfortunately that would mean losing our ground, facilities, name and be relegated 4 leagues. He'll never get his comeuppance without us suffering most. Well, I'll be writing this season off, not giving his regime a penny. He's not prepared to take a hit on his finances for the club so nor am i. **** him. I'll steal my stream, beyond that safc can get ****ed until that greedy bastard has gone.
I bet the finer details equate to Ellis Short and Money. Like it always has done. It's always Short and Money
Anyone who calls himself a "fan" is one in my opinion, its a daft word anyway, we are all supporters really with different levels of commitment and vastly different outlooksl, its what makes it so addictive. Long may it continue.
Think positive. Tell her you are taking her for a night out to a fabulous Entertainment Venue. You never know, she MIGHT enjoy the match.
We are in limbo Nowt can happen no moving forward I've got my season card for the first time in a few years I and I'm going so **** them all
It was too good to be true for Klinsman being our next manager. What if Grayson turns us down ?, he is under contract. I tell you what good old Steve McLaren will be our manager, I am still undecided whether to renew my season card but not if him or Grayson comes in.
How many did we enjoy last season. Think that's pretty brutal mate, asking Marcus to inflict that on his wife
Just seen http://www.shieldsgazette.com/sport...keover-talks-with-german-consortium-1-8623033 that Short pulled out because the consortium were not in a better position than him to take us forward. That for me shows Shorts concerns for Sunderland AFC ... but if it was because they did not offer enough
