I'm quite surprised in Bill and his threats of physical violence because of some words/actions on the Internet. He's a 62 year old man.
People will join another football forum and leave this one if stuff like this continues
Bloody hell! Just read it and can't really believe it all went on so long without everyone getting bored.
I don't really post enough to 'know' anyone on here but cor blimey, there are some people who take these sorts of things a bit far, on both sides of the footballing divide.
Fixtures out friday morning, anyone excited? I'm not, to be honest. I just hope we make some decent signings by then. Ha.
Thsi is why I left this forum for several months, after the first few weeks, it was literally a hate-fest between Mags and Mackems, justified under the blanket of "banter". Im sorry but calling people a bellend or telling them to **** off is not banter, which is what was going on at the time.
Thankfully things improved somewhat and I showed my face again.
Yet worrying signs again from both Sunderland & Newcastle fans of childish bickering, name calling, winding up and swearing for the sake of it. Invasions on each other boards trying to irritate and annoy each other.
It not only paints this entire forum as a bad place to be, but it paints a picture of North East football fans as incredibly tribal and aggressive people who are not good at all to get along with.

Sup.
You break my heart, always being nasty to me. You've no feelings at all.
When you get verbal assaults and witless name calling (Disguised as "banter") certain Newcastle fans who base every supposed footballing debate upon "5-1". Sunderland fans who fly off on one off any comment by a Newcastle fan that isn't showering our club with praise. Its incredibly childish and for an outsider looking in, it hardly shows us as rational football fans engaging in debate does it?
