Do I hear the sound of bursting bubbles?

    Think we are starting to move more towards a realistic position for us this season, ie 8th -10th. This is still something I'd be delighted with. I don't agree with the bubble bursting or our luck running out, I think we're just starting to get the results that most would expect, rather than massively exceeding eexpectations. ( I also don't think we've been lucky or unlucky this season, equal bad a good decisions). Yes our performace has dropped, no the bubble hasn't burst, yes I still think we will finish top 10 which marks an incredibly successful season.

  2. We're still quite a bit away from Villa in 9th. There's still a while to go and I could see us finishing 7/8th

    I would have to have an interest in something, to be jealous of it. <ok>

    You know in the back of your mind that it was luck that got you to the position you are in.
    You're just biased admit it!

  5. Ok you're just wumming now, enjoy your pushing for your Champions League spot with your amazing manager after that immense result vs Blackburn.

    Not a chance in hell Sunderland will finish in the top eighteen.

    Reckon sunderland's luck will run out when they are not playing against a team in the bottom 3.

    In addition to my earlier post, just like to add that at least we have a bubble to burst. Save the "wumming" for when Sunderland catch us up, yeah? <ok>

    If that's not this year, which is still very possible. We will definitely be top dogs next.
    I have no doubt.

    Only a chump would ever say something like that with so much certainty <laugh>

    In my opinion, it will appear that way until your "saviour" has another hissy fit because of lack of backing or whatever, and you slump back to lower mid table where you belong.

    Rather than your own manager who was "SACKED" for being a twat and a disruptive influence. <ok>

  14. Sunderlands over confidence constantly comes back to hit them. Every season they're the same. How they've signed all these great players and how they will still establish themselves as the top team in the north east, and how they will claim at least 4pts of us each season.

    Really???? Wait till the financial figures are released. As a business plan, we are streets ahead of Sunderland. Ashley isn't running our club the way a fan would like but as a business, you don't come close.

    Dear me, bubbles bursting??? We are 13 points clear of you lot and I'd put money on it being the same tomorrow after you have played. worst case scenario it will be 10. Having seen the state of you lot this season, I wouldn't be too quick to judge.

  17. How are Sunderland more stable? We've got a lot of quality in our squad, we are close to breaking even and we've got a fantastic scout who's got us so many bargains.

    More stable my arse.

    Ouch
    MON averages five years at clubs he has managed. He is now at a club he loves and we love him. Can't see any hissy fits coming any time soon.
    As for the slump remark. How's your form going? What's that... no wins in five... <laugh>

  19. I have no doubt you will improve but it's stupid to make a claim that you'll be above us by next season or that you'll fly up the table. You've only beaten Blackburn for gods sake.

    What, he is using child labour behind the scenes at the SDA, just like he does for his business?
    I suppose it saves money .
