Danny's not that bad, he only made no6 on the list http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepag...mier-League-transfer-flops-of-the-season.html If he had a yard of extra pace he would be a far far better player
In all seriousness, whats the rivalry like between you? Is it a friendly one like Liverpool v Everton, or will it be like Sunderland v Newcastle, pure hatred. How do you think Cardiff will do?, I like their manager and if he doesn't sod off to Everton, I am already fancying them to stay up.
what history...anyone can have their day and its been a very long time since people recognized sunderland as a big team...they are not even the biggest team in the north east...
Don't give a **** what you say princess, i've had a bit ribbing with these lads this afternoon and you're still hated more than me
Lets Get this right here. Sunderland Are a massive club indeed. They have won Stuff that Newcastle can only Dream about! There is no way a team like that should be struggling to survive in the prem league. For their size they should be top 6 , the strange thing is that they have struggled to come to terms with expectation. Our friend talks about the history but it is also the problem. Too many of These clubs Think they have a devine right to dine at the top table because of what they did 30 yrs ago. Leeds utd Are the same. Until the fans of These clubs accept they Are nowhere near their full potential then then the expectation and pressure Will always crush them! Mackems were talking about top 6 and higher at the start of the season, a quick look at their squad list would have told anyone they were average at best. Swansea Are way smaller and probably always Will be but they have found a system and stuck to it. Bigger clubs seem to Think a new manager and 6 new players solves all the problems, it doesnt.
The Rivalry blows hot and cold, they think they are the biggest club in Wales, and we just humour them, as regards their manager, I like him, but how long he'll be there, we'll soon find out shortly, but their brand of football is no different to many lower mid table clubs in the Premier League, and I really think they will struggle unless they bring in some quality players, rather than expensive players like QPR. Defensively they could be in some deep water, it's their biggest issue in my view, but we'll see what happens, at least we get our Derby days back, just hope the rabble behave!..............
