Board one Ashley/Lambias, detested by fans, not trusted by players, laughing stock in football. Short/Quinn, Loved by fans, respected by players, respected in football. Board two Newcastle not606, Doom, gloom, riot, fear, frustration. Sunderland not606, Excitement, anticipation, piss taking,happiness, togetherness, good times ahead. Apart from the 73 cup win I cant think of a time in my 50 years of supporting when being red and white was so much better than those poor sods in black and white. 5-1 even brings a smile to my face now, would I swap places for a win last October, like **** I would.
Fair point Syd on the owners/chairmen but the "doom, gloom" etc. go hand in hand with the fact we have Ashley and Llambias so the second half of your article is quite irrelevant. Basically what you're saying is your club is in a better position in terms of ownership and nobody would argue with that
The activity on our board probably reflects the fact that we have other things to do. You know; we have lives and do Not606. We don't live for Not606...
We could at least try and be a bit more like them though Sid. I know, why don't we start a "Rep thread" where we can all gather round and dish out hand jobs to each other in an attempt to feel more important?
By all means take the piss. But this is just puzzling. Were you not boasting about how active the NUFC board is or what? That's how I read your previous post. I point out that most people do this when they can/want to (I come on Not606 in me lunch hour, like now and in the evening) and so if our board is less active, so be it. Then you post a load of indecipherable ****e? Get a grip...
To be fair, I go on their rep threads as it's one place where you can natter to their decent posters at any time of the day, without resorting to the usual OTT partisanship.
Trying to justify it as well. Boys, boys... I'll let you all get on with your exciting times now, don't mind me.
An interesting and well delivered point, Disco. And Sid... I doubt you've read any of my posts other than the ones on this thread. What you've just said there to put me down? Kind of lame mate. Try better. I can't see anything that I've posted that would cause such offence to be honest, other than a gentle little wink. And to think some of my best friends are Sunderland fans. Not the internet kind mind. Clearly.
