As my teacher always said if someone tells you to jump in to the water would you ? Look before you leap !
Lol well let's hope what's going on with the club can have everyone grinning from ear to ear. Few Mags I know have been quiet about our news and others just keep saying "he's 22 man, he's only 22". Love it.
This'll be the last I say on this... but no, of course not. He has sent me similar messages over the last few weeks and I've chosen not to post them as I didn't think they were appropriate or helpful. I genuinely thought in this instance that this one was suitable and was worth reading, if anything for a laugh. But as I've said, whilst it's extreme, it's also reminded me that things could still go wrong. Won't do it again.
Lived at Tindale Street, Leadgate. Had a mate who's dad was an engine driver from the coal yards to Consett Iron Company. He'd stop the train and we'd jump on, as 8 year olds, and he'd let us drive. We'd arrive into the Jaws of Hell with men stripped to the waste casting molten metal. Unbelievable looking back mate.
Things got signed the day the news broke, It’s well past the stage people are trying to make out, it’s not going to fall through, the not going to pull out, we are probably at the stage when Donald’s takeover got announced on SAFC
Used to go to the back of the shaft in leadgate Donkey’s years ago ( or shaft round the back as it was sometimes known ) - mate of mines Mam and dad had it - cracking pub which is now part of housing estate I believe
Upthere who has really good links with Sky and some journalists is saying the deal was agreed on Friday over on RTG. Basically backing up what Magnus has just posted Really exciting news all this
Does this ring any bells ... "SAFC Black Cats News on Facebook the lad who runs it reckons the deal hasn't even been agreed yet. DD hasn't even been done although Dreyfuss and co remain interested."
It is a tough time at the minute, caused by a mixture of apathy and despondancy, but there is light at the end of the tunnel, and by the sounds of it we'll see the light soon. It's important that we remember this moment and how we feel, and unlike Man City fans, don't ever forget what a state we were in, so we can appreciate what we eventually end up with, and don't take it for granted. Good to see you back on here.
People are correct. Deal is far more advanced than some are claiming. That's why leaks were made to journalists before the weekend
