Good point, he believes we are a huge club and if we want Mbappe then he would jump at the chance to come! P.S I've said recently I'm convinced he is the world's best fisherman and he is just constantly in character on here for bites.
My question would be how the approach to this transfer window has changed compared to the two last season in terms of what kind of player we're looking for. The cheese would be the backup.
The club couldn't have been any clearer about what this lighthearted event entails ... 'The event will serve as an exciting preview of the upcoming season and offer a chance for Le Bris to formally speak to the fans for the first time. As pre-season picks up speed with players returning to the Academy of Light, Kristjaan Speakman will provide insight into the club's off-field work this summer.' ... yet some clowns, on social media, are already going off on it as if they should be allowed to cross question RLB. It's a talk in, not another Post Office Enquiry So, Mr Le Bris, can you tell us the exact date you were first contacted by Sunderland and do you have documentation?
Seriously mate, I've just had a skim through as I'm having a break from work ... ... the club are already being condemned for not allowing last season to be dissected. You'd think paying a few quid, to watch football matches, gave people the right to hold an inquest. And those who don't even go seem to be the most vociferous
Always the case,I got shot of all my social media and life is so much simpler without a load of walapers going on and on
Got rid of every social media account I had about eight years ago now. You are right, life is so much simpler without it. It was a bit like losing a body part initially but once I got used to it, a whole new world, the real world, became clearer again.
I don't post or get involved, it's just hilarious seeing the degree of self-entitlement and arrogance. We're football supporters, not stockholders ... ... some think their entrance fee is an investment that entitles them to constant explanations from the owner.
The bloke I was on with last night argued it was right we’d been knocked back off loads of coaches because he’d read it on FB and X
This is my only social media account. I think of it more like the village pub where I am tolerated like the resident idiot I tried tik tok a month or so back. My sons band do a lot on there and are followed by some decent music folk. Thought I would look in. Lasted a day and deleted my account, completely lost I was. I have never been on any other. Really dont get it at all. Probably an age thing, but it just doesnt appeal.
it’s the extreme describing words that chip away at my soul. Things are either terrible, f£cking appalling, lifting, disgusting or my least favourite. “An absolute joke” https://x.com/tonyguk/status/1808153577614979090?s=46&t=FgnCLl4rQYbvpjBe_u6nPQ
I’ll let you into a little secret, as much as I’d love to have a TikTok account I’ve banned myself for registering. My guilty pleasure is watching funny animal videos and I’d never be off the bloody thing.
Always found that those who don't go to matches - usually cos "they can't get tickets" make their mouths go the most
It may be that it's because the 90 minutes is all there is, for them, and they over analyse everything. People who go have the consolation of the sense of togetherness and the pleasure of seeing friends, having a pint and being part of something with history and tradition. Perhaps that makes people who don't go feel bitter about the club and those who enjoy the day, sometimes despite the football.
I included the son in law in that analogy. He always had to watch Man Utd games on TV until the mags got took over by the Saudis now he's a staunch mag for some reason along with the rest of his family. The grandson is decked or in black and white gear and we went in holiday with them last year. I was winding the grandson up about a black and white top and all of a sudden he came out with "my son will never be a staunch Sunderland fan!". That was it - gloves off! The wife had a go and said about going to games which he came back with the proverbial "can't get tickets". I've heard that so many times from mouthy mags that a switch kicked in and give him a mouthful. Kept away from us after that for a day! He's a proper premier league fan and that kind of thing seriously annoys me. Yes watch games on TV (and I may be wrong about this - probably am!) but until you actually go to games, get involved with the team you watch - it's never one of those things you can explain, you actually FEEL what it's like to be involved with the club. You don't just support the club, you actually love it then you never really know what it's like to be a fan. I'm trying to get the grandson like me - always said I wouldn't but needs must and he's getting there. He loves going to Sunderland games but he's torn between us, them lot, Hartlepool and Man City! Edit - just seen how much I've wrote! Sorry for the bit of war and peace
Honestly what **** show is that, they took too long to appt a manager. That's gone now just get on and support the team
