Idle musings

Sunderland would have taken Boro's place. That third team that really want a big rival but cant really find one.

 

don't big yourselves up that much mate you're not that relevant to me now never mind if there was 2 Newcastle teams,the only time i think of your lot is derby day and when it's mentioned/one of you come - on here

you must be really bored

 

I have to say Sid, I bet you lot thought that you were playing against 2 Newcastle teams on Halloween.

 

We once made Barca look like Sunderland

How you doing today sid? Thank Christ it's stopped raining.

 

play nice wasn't really decent craic though was it seemed liked a veiled attempt at wumming

this bit sort of gave that away.was reading it at first and thought it was going to be a fair thread but as i said the dig at the end sort of ****ed it up for me like
but to play along i don't even think you'd come into the equation like most 2 team cities the rivalry would be between the 2 clubs

oh yeah one more thing just because i don't obsess about your team doesn't mean i have delusions of grandeur just means you're not that important to me would rather look at the bigger picture and try and be best in the league not have my ambition as "as long as we finish above/or beat the mackems"

edit:

think you read me wrong there i was on about your club not you personally

 

raining? best weather we've had in ages over here in Northern Ireland, I'd say you should move but 9/10 people are man united supporters so it sucks the big ones

 

Very true. It looks like you could have a completely different team by the next derby.

After 2 years in the job Bruce still has to make major changes in the squad. Surely by now he should have got his squad together and now just be making minor improvements by signing a couple of players. Having to sign around 10 new players looks like he hasn't got a clue. I know the loan signings have not helped, but surely some of those were brought in with the intention of being signed on a permanent basis.

 

his downfall imo

 

They'd both have been similar size to someone like Villa. Ashley would've bought one and everyone would've switched to the other and the club Ashley bought would've gone into administration. And that's exactly what would've happened.

 

Its Beaut of a day in N Yorkshire

 

Good question that.

Shame I have no idea what the answer would be but here's a question for you. Should Sunderland's stadium be north of the river ie where it is now/Roker/Fulwell or should it be south of the river near the city centre where it was first built (I think) in Hendon or somewhere?

Honest question.

 

about the injuries
what's the craic that was floating about a while back about bruce dismissing the medical teams advice and asking the players if they were fit to play instead surely that was bollocks?

 

And we were mocked for flogging Mandy?!
Loans haven't helped I don't think Sid, any news on whether Welbeck & Onouha (sp?) will make the switch permanent? Wes Brown & O'Shea could good signings for you, plenty of PL experience.

 

I agree with your view on Henderson, £20 million is great business for you and could provide funds to bring in 3-4 decent signings. It's much like the sale of Andy Carroll. Most people were gutted when he went, but if that money is used wisely it could really push our club on. if we picked up Cabeye, NZogbia, Taylor, Ba and another quality striker we would still have a sizeable amount of cash left over to help cover their wages.
