Did we though? Cup allocations are always bigger than league ones. I've seen no concrete evidence that the club was complicit in the Black Cats Bar redecoration thing. And we gave out some free beer to keep them quiet.

And didn't insist on staff, who may be Mags anyway, wearing Sunderland regalia in a Newcastle only area ...

... something else people were raging about.
 
Having just seen the email from RAWA, it's going to just get worse. Bunch of arseholes using over the top inflammatory language is just going to destroy any chance of the fan base having a voice at all.
I've just seen that email. I'd reply and tell them to stop being so daft if it wouldn't be a grand waste of time and effort.

WE gave them 6,000 tickets, explain that one, check the minutes that have been released so far, we could have limited them and didnt, why was that?
 
It's an anonymous forum mate, do me a favour and stop calling me by name, thanks.

As for your point.

I didn't say anyone mentioned multimillion pound players. I said I believe some are taking out their frustration at our sustainability by attacking unrelated issues to an unreasonable degree.

Sorry. I wont mention your name again, but you are talking ****e

And here is a cut from your post

People are frustrated because we aren't signing loads of multimillion pound players.
 
I have just proved you are talking ****e, and either you cant remember what you post or are hoping people dont know

Carry on

I know precisely what I post and other people have managed to understand without any problem ...

... you've only proved anything in your own mind tbh, I don't see anyone else agreeing with you tbh.

Anyway, you think I'm talking shyte so probably best to ignore me.

This is from your post, but you now claim you never said this

The FA rules state it's 15% or whatever the SAG agrees to. The SAG is made up of people from both clubs, security, police and the rest. So no, 'we' did not give them 6000 tickets. If it was a league game I would agree with you but cup games are different rules.

OK I'll explain again slowly and carefully.

What you've done is quote half of my point.

You missed out the second half that ends with imo ... 'in my opinion'.

I didn't say people had posted anything about us not signing multimiiion pound players ...

... I said it was my opinion that they're frustrated because we're not and taking those frustrations out on other issues.

Here's the whole quote.
As with the situation at the club you might want to try looking at the whole situation before firing off and talking shyte.

'People are frustrated because we aren't signing loads of multimillion pound players.

Because they don't want to admit it they're grabbing any passing story and building it up into WW3 imo.'

Hello Mr x, you said you never mentioned multimillion pound players, I have just cut from your post and pasted it, you can bold and change text but you are talking ****e, did you or didnt you mention people wanting multimillion pound players, then denied it? Big bold letters :) :) :)

I haven't changed anything.

Perhaps someone else can explain it to you, I give up.
 
Very good post and I agree with all of it. The simple thing is, it isn't the same game anymore. It isn't 2 working class cities in the same leauge checking the fixture on the release date. It's isn't nerves an build up the week before. It isn't similar sets of players pitted against each other anymore, it just isn't the same anymore. In the build up, the mags at work were genuinely ****ting themselves. I've said before on this thread, every red and white I know wasn't bothered going into it and not one mag has said anything about the result. It's weird now. onto Ipswich.

I've found that strange that not one mag at work has mentioned the match at all never mind trying to take the mick as you usually would in a derby. It's like the match never even happened
 
Just read the Roker Report 'editorial' on the derby. I won't bother posting it because its bollocks. Its just negativity and criticism of KLD. If not him, what kind of owners do people want? Dodgy nation states who use us to attempt to make themselves look more friendly? Bored Americans who know nothing about the game and piss off, leaving the club broke, when they realise chucking money at it won't work? Skint insurance salesmen who are in over their heads?

All of this is beginning to sound a bit like "we just want our club back" to me.

Roker Report are a lot harder on KLD than they ever were on Donald and i'm pretty sure it's simply because Donald went on their podcast and they clearly had an inside source while he was in charge as they had multiple exclusives, whereas now they get nothing. Pathetic bunch of amateurs.
