No, think you got that a bit wrong. He was signed for a small club, but has recently moved on. As for bring horse **** - didn't his goals help keep you up? Oh, my mistake......
If Sunderland is small then **** knows what Newcastle is. Aye you right, his 15 league goals really help us this season. If it wasnt for kone, khazri and the big German then we would of went down last season.
Bigger - that's why we have a Cathedral International airport Mainline railway station Premier League football club Football ground that holds over 50,000 spectators and does so regularly (even until the final whistle) Largest out of town shopping centre in the UK Gents - anything I've missed?
It has very little to do with the internet. Its about how much the club is worth and how fast it's value and drawing power is growing. I'm not using that as a stick to beat Sunderland with though. I have no idea how well or badly you lot are getting on as it only listed the top 50 clubs in the world.
Loads - but wouldn't want to make your inferiority complex any worse by wuoti g them here. Once upon a time however, we won a trophy for playing football in a European competition. You might need to look that up...
We qualified in the same way that every club qualified for the UEFA Cup up until 1975. And that 'mickey mouse' cup is listed proudly in Barcelona's list of major European Trophies. Mind you, a club like Barcelona is probably desperate to list any sort of silverware seeing as they get so little.......
No, but winning that trophy contributed to our brand growing even faster and so becoming the fastest growing brand in world football this year.
