It's tribal. You hate the mags and bending over for them stings a bit. Its not tribal if you're not from here. People who like it but if you live and work with them , it hurts more.
That is for them to decide. If they feel betrayed and hurt , that's them, not you. If they are willing to give up 30 of 40 years worth of support over it, I think that shows how big of a deal it is.
You've come out with this arrogant bollocks before. My entire family come from Sunderland, I grew up in County Durham. No one I know would still be crying about this pathetic bullshit. I now live in Essex. Not that where you come from has any bearing on how 'good' a fan you are or how much you love the club. A large number of people on here are exiles or even second generation exiles. We promote the club, the city, the region to the people we know. We love and care about it. And miss it. You post **** saying people from Sunderland can't accept people with southern accents. That's an embarrassment to the city and the region. Don't ever tell any one of the exiles on this website that they aren't good fans, or don't love the club, or don't know the region because you know **** all about it.
Not about being a fan. But I am saying the hatred for the mags is tribal. If your live and work in the area it's going to hurt more. Stand by it.
I actually don't give a shiny s hite about the BCB...it was a disgrace, but we move on. What I care about is what is happening on the field. To them ends we are going backwards a rate of knots. The common denominator here is KS. I said over a year ago this guy has way too much influence at the club. He has failed in this seasons Transfers windows and with his managerial choices. I'm all for KLD but for me Speakman has to carry the can for this season capitulation...in any other walk of business he would have been history by now. If we carry on the way we are, the remaining home games I'm sure the crowd will make that loud and clear.
We will when the club takes some action and there's a bit of accountability like they said would happen at the time. Looking like that was another lie so they ain't getting our 3 season ticket money next season until it's been dealt with. We won't be the only ones.
Been going for 30 or 40 and they don't want go now, honestly talk about a over reaction, if it was for financial reasons then fair enough, but for the first season where we haven't progressed under the owners some fans are chucking there toys out of the pram
The epitome of clutching at straws and, btw, what an insult to the majority of our support. Twenty Sunderland on the train from Edinburgh ... ... declared worthless because some people who live in Sunderland are turning their backs on their own club,
You, me or anyone else on here wouldn't know what has happened, the person may of been disciplined it's not going to be made public. Corrected as in the signs were taken down!
I know but you were replying to bazzas post about Speakman - Dodds wasn't mentioned. Anyway I know what you mean and agreed Dodds and proctor should be in the academy set up and so should speakman if not run out of town - all 3 of them are so far out of depth at championship level it's scary.
