That pretty much sums things up mate. It's not so much the players that's the problem as they're busy and occupied with training, travelling, playing, interviews, sponsors, etc. It's the partners and children who are the problem. Living in a nice big detached property, in the Durham countryside,would suit me fine ... ... but Groundhog Day for a vibrant young woman with money to burn. We'd want to improve our home, plant trees, add outbuildings and create something personal. Renting a furnished house, for three years, isn't the same at all. And how many times can you go into town before you've done it all.
Should know by now that they like to claim anything, most of Gateshead including the sage and the angel of the north.
Many footballers rent property for the duration of their contracts and that certainly applies in Darras Hall. If house purchase is preferred there are very many houses in that area substantially lower than £1 million.
Average house price in Darras is £850k lol. Best mates parents live there in a bungalow they’ve owned from when it was new, had nothing done to it and you’d say it’s on the small end of what you’ll get there. Valued at £700k. Pretty much all of the houses have big gated driveways etc and loads of privacy. Not sure there’s anywhere like that over here that isn’t a stones throw from a council estate
It probably feels like he’s had lots of chances because he’s made over 20 appearances but most of those minutes will have been as a sub. From memory he generally looked okay but had one real shocker.
Rusyn for me just doesn’t have the build for what we need up top at all, looks far too lightweight and his movement isn’t amazing either. Completely lack that focal point option
I work with a max that lives on the river in Durham and everytime I tell him he should be ashamed he bites like owt. Very touchy subject, even more so when I said I’d draw him a map on how to get to somewhere (I’m a HGV driver) and I drew him a map of the west flowing past Durham towards the stadium of light. genuinely thought he was going to rip my head off.
A lot of people including our own fans underrate this squad tbf, they were coached by two minging coaches last season, the new style of play should hopefully suit them down to the ground, add a goalscoring striker to that then why can't we have a proper go?
Until we are back in the prem, getting hammered each week they will slate the team/set up no matter what. most stayed away in L1 but managed to get tickets for the final
