I nearly had a heart attack when I seen the price of beer the first time we were over, a carton of Stella was something like 50 dollars, my brother-in-law drinks Little Creatures and that was even dearer.
It was just when I saw the poster 'slug in boots' that was all. Hopefully your source comes up trumps with good news. edit : FFS replied to the imposter!
No news, not even a glimmer of a positive exciting rumour . It’s beginning to look oh so predictable.
It's not Tom Sloanes, unless he is willing to lie to mates about it being him. It's a decent windup account for some sad bastard.
I take it by the italicised know you're inferring anyone who says different doesn't know what they're on about. Fair enough. I'll agree watching them play those games gives you slightly more information than I have access to, but I would argue that the Huddersfield fans have more information than the both of us to come to the conclusions they did. I'd say Mourinho is pragmatic and effective and personally I enjoy his tactical approach to the game, like I do for a wide variety of other managers. I find some similarities in his approach to the game that Big Sam has got and I enjoyed watching us under him. Well, after the Christmas I did, was a bit painful at times before that. My main concern with the Cowleys is that League one is the limit of their abilities. I've seen them being described as being pragmatic when accused of hoof ball at Huddersfield but it's the kind of pragmatic I don't want. Parky was pragmatic in his own dour and defensive way and it was painful to watch what was getting served up and that is how the Huddersfield fans described their own team. Now, I could well be wrong about their abilities and they might be able to manage at a higher level but I don't want us to be the club taking that gamble. I want us to be as certain as we can, and I know nothing is certain, that whoever we employ can get us up and keep us up. Pearson and Poyet have both done that and I suspect they would have a more extensive set of contacts in the football world than the Cowley's have. So why respond to one of my posts then? You started this conversation today yet want to be ignored. Fair enough.
When we moved over here in 2007 I was still on the Stella which would’ve been about £2.50 in the old country. First pub I went into, asked for a pint. “That’ll be $12 thanks darl”. Same as you, nearly had a coronary!
Nowt bad about the Cowley’s mate only if you haven’t a clue how to build a club from the bottom like some on here and believe me we are at the bottom
It was Cloughie who said that to make Sunderland great again would take a complete unknown. He even said that the job was too big for him. At least I reckon that’s what he said or something similar anyway.
Enjoy it EJK, I have done a bit of travelling but WA is the most beautiful place I have ever visited, I only wish we had emigrated before I retired, another of life's missed opportunities
No, now you're making assumptions. I'm implying that I've heard the opinions of people I'd trust who work within football. Based on those opinions, I've concluded that they'd be good for us. To be quite honest, I answered your post yesterday but that's beside the point. However, we've both set out our stalls on the issue, as I said earlier, but you want to keep arguing.
