    Serious takeover talk

    Guess there’s no news this morning.

    Who's to blame for our situation?

    Yeah. Not been on for about two years lol. How you been mate.

    Who's to blame for our situation?

    Players come and go. Managers come and go yet every year it's the same old relegation battle. One person has remained constant during these depressing times. Ellis Short. He's got to put up or ship out and quickly. Only major investment is going to stop the undeniable rot at the SOL.

    Phillips Announces Retirement

    Give him back....<laugh> Good luck SKP in what ever you do. A true Mackem legend and easily the best striker I've had the pleasure to see in the Red and White.

    "Sunderland will never achieve anything in division one"

    Words spoken to me by my Dad thirty five years ago. I have to say I scoffed at the time. How wrong I was. So to the mess we are now in. Many will blame Gus, Bruce, PDC etc....Any bugger except the real culprit..... Ellis Short. The bloke is a billionaire yet has invested next to nowt when...

    Paolo would have saved you

    Considering the squad rebelled against PDC it's kinda hard to see how he would of got more out of them. It's also interesting to note PDC is still unemployed.

    Been saying it for weeks.......

    Yep...Only way we could break into the top six or four is to spend above the top six or four as we have much catching up to do. Sad thing is our history, fan base, stadium etc...We should be top six at least, so what's missing? Investment is my guess.

    Been saying it for weeks.......

    It's not down to the manager. It's quite simple really. To succeed in the best league in the world you need to spend, and spend big. Hate to say it but Billionaire Ellis has simply come up Short...Pardon the pun.

    Moyes out!

    Can help thinking the appointment of Moyes was a tactical master stroke by Fergie. After all what better way to show how good he was than to see the team fall apart as soon as he leaves? The very same team that walked the league last season now sit seventh. A full 18 points from the top...

    Wtf? How does a plane vanish?

    I admit. It sounds nuts but whoever took this plane, and it was taken. Knew exactly what they were doing. There are vast areas of our "little" globe have no radar..Even between the US and the UK planes go blind. If this plane has deliberately ditched in the Sea it's like looking for a needle in...

    Can't wait for Norwich

    Yeah...Didn't want to go down the East European route but...Yep. Norwich on the other hand I like. Of all the City's I've visited Norwich reminds me of home the most. That's meant as a compliment....<laugh>

    Can't wait for Norwich

    Norwich is indeed a fine City. I lived in Watton for two years, I loved going to Norwich. Great Yarmouth on the other hand...**** tip.

    Wtf? How does a plane vanish?

    I worked in Air Traffic half my life and I can say it's not hard to make a plane disappear. It's also not hard to incapacitate/kill the passengers. What is hard to believe, although not impossible is that this plane has landed on some remote strip undetected. Best guess is it's crashed in the...

    Hull supporters have no excuse this time .......

    Why get wound up by a Mag. All his dreams came true Sunday. We lost in a major final. Look at the irony. His team can only dream at such a day whereas we may have two more Wembley days very soon. I kind of like the thought of the Geordie nation backing whoever we are playing at Wembley..It's...
