Can you imagine what's going through his mind seeing all that today? It was only the home kit going on sale in line with the club shop being moved and there must've been queues all day!
I hope this gets going, Cardiff away let him know were all behind him, then bouncing it out first home game.... hopefully Bruce reads bits & pieces & makes sure the original version is one of the records played in build up to kick off
A lot of the stand out people in history have an abrasive manor.....imagine how our current fans base might have reacted to an unknown Brian Clough for example.....would he have come across arrogant or whatever..... sometimes people cone across a certain way simply due to shear determination to perform
I did and lost my guest card, did me no good what's so ever. I hope everyone does not think all is forgiven with the **** show we were left with, cos lots will not forget it.
If he buys well this summer and Regis turns out to be s good appointment that gets us contending I think the vast majority will consider all forgiven and all forgotten.
I couldn't care less Bob, to be perfectly honest with you. No offence but you're talking as if how you feel is more important than the club as a whole ... ... in reality people know nothing is ever perfect but accept it and get on with supporting the club. In the grand scheme of things a few gripes about 'Pritchard being forced out' or 'why did we bring in Burstow on loan' are virtually irrelevant. At a time when people are feeling more optimistic I think you're wrong to say 'lots' will continue to hold a grudge. We're selling huge amounts of season tickets, the manager has been well received and the new kit is flying off the shelves. Last season was last season and I've no intention of spoiling this one before it's begun.
There are still people on social media who, every time anything optimistic is mentioned, come back with 'BCB' ... ... it's almost as automatic as TV presenters when they say 'X' then immediately 'Previously known as Twitter'. Surely there has to come a point when people just let it drop, beyond boring now imo.
i aint talking just about the playing side of things, the BCB will not be forgot by lots of people. Anyhow time to be positive.
Our fans can be split into two groups nowadays, supporters and detractors. Some are firmly entrenched in one camp, some totter backwards and forward across the line. I think with improvements this year very few will be left detracting.
there’s 3 as there’s those who just detract. I heard Speakman stood in the queue for a bloke to take his kid to the toilet so he may be a twunt some of the time but not all of it. I’m a totterer between the ****show last season and the good things I’m seeing now. I’m hoping everything comes together but that’s up to the club leadership now they’ve got the chance to drive us forward. I hope and pray they do! But I’ll never forget the BCB. Soz.
That's all perfectly reasonable mate. I can't speak for anyone else but while it's fine that you never forget the BCB or whatever ... ... it has become boring to see it brought up all the time, the new manager thread and here we are again. The Mags must laugh their heads off every time they see it.
No need to apologise to me. People bearing a grudge for a set of stickers doesn't impact my enjoyment of supporting Sunderland, just theirs.
Exactly this....were drawing attention to subjects which then encourage external nuggets to poke fun & laugh
You are spot on with your last sentence, it is time to be positive Some will never forget the BCB incident however, no benefit in folk bringing it up all the time as its in the past n lessons will have been learned - doesnt mean people have to forget
