    I look forward to a few eating **** for wanting so many of our lads buried.

    They've doubted all of our lads from last year.

    Thinking a bit more about patience tonight. Had a look at Forest who stayed up after signing loads of new players. Loat 3 of the first 4. Had 10 points after 10 games. They learned that a point was crucial. 12 points last 10 games. They just kept ticking the board over. Has to be our expectation I think. A 0-0 draw at home to fulham for example, may be good, if we back it up with a point down there. Forest won 4 games before Christmas. 9 in total. Patience is the watchword I reckon. The league is probably a fraction tougher 3 years on.

    Spot on post. Patience is the key.

    The premier league is tough, but its also not full of world class players in every position in every team.

    Hard work and effort will pick up points over skill and half effort.

    I think it is tougher.

    It might take 45 points or thereabouts, if one of Brentford, Wolves, of maybe Bournemouth don't drop off a bit.

    But I might be a bit worried if I was a Brentford fan. We might be doing things differently, but they are having some serious upheaval themselves.

    I just hope the pilot didn't have the fish for dinner.

    Fun fact - I met Jim Abrahams, the Director in 1990. I worked with his nephew at summer camp in the states and he came to visit. He was filming Hot Shots at the time

    Bit much. I don't think there's anything wrong with accepting there's a big step up in level. The club have replaced 6/11 of our starters from last year, and we know for a fact they are actively looking to replace at least 2 others.

    Should KLD, Speakman, and Ghisolfi "eat ****", too?

    Don't be silly mate, just showing yersel up now man <doh>

    No one off this forum ever meets film directors, football players or art dealers ...

    ... if you're being honest we all just work in call centres or on the night shift at Nissan.

    Bob wasn't a guest of Hearts, Malaga never spoke to Xhaka and Defoe never went to visit anyone in Sunderland.

    We all just live in a tiny little world with an SR postcode and speak when we're spoken to.

    And you've never passed time with Le Bris so stop pretending and remember to get me a pint at Sheepfolds like you promised <laugh>

    Lad a work genuinely knows him and his family. Make no mistake about it, the lads "Newcastle daft", but he'll always give 100 percent to Sunderland.
