You what! More like Prince Charming caught between Cinderella and the ugly sisters (Middlesborough and Newcastle)
NMG is a wum twat, as we know, but you should take a look at yourself, Billy. He's wearing the shirt now and if you can't cheer him if he scores against the skunks then you are no fan I'd want to have a pint with.
I have digested every comment, for, and against this signing and without adding my own views, there is another perspective which needs careful consideration. To those who are determined to boo the lad on his debut and onwards, beware being berated by the majority of those supporters sat around you, who are wishing to get behind him. Not only are these supporters going to affect the atmosphere at the SOL, which may affect the confidence of Graham and the rest of the players, they may also infuriate MON.
Is it because he's a mag? Chris Waddle was a mackem, but he played for NUFC with distinction. Still welcomed him to Roker for the last few games of his career. Is it because he said something daft? Let he who is without sin cast the first stone with regard to that one.
How much clearer do I have to make it Sid? The lad has publicly stated he hates us as a club. He wont even get a game anyhow unless Mon changes his stance. Plus, he's ****e & a waste of money. I like you Sid but I hope this clears everything up.
I like you too Billy, but I just think you're out of order on this. He's happy to wear the shirt and what would you have said in that interview if you had been asked the same question. No doubt nice things about NUFC? We'll just have to disagree on the DG question.
How, less of the old? It's each individuals choice Billy and youre entitled to do what you feel right as much as anyone. I've decided to bury the hatchet mate and move on. I either stop supporting the club; get on the lads back and effect his and my clubs chances of succeeding; hope Graham fails altogether; create a bad atmosphere at games; alienate and piss off the manager and owner; stay away; or just get on supporting the player, club, manager and owner. I'm plugging for the last one matey. You choose yours.
At the end of the day there exists only two options in life, bitterness or acceptance and with acceptance, comes positivity.
Well it seems some people know exactly what I'm thinking strange that because you have no idea whatsoever rant over. Graham is a barcode and openly admits it that is not my problem with him, he sort of slated us a bit by saying he would rather support Gateshead than us again not bothered about that (being as he is from Gateshead), my problem with him is he just isn't that good and I doubt will improve us. MON will not be chucking him up top with Fletcher so he will be on the bench more than on the pitch, having said that I will repeat what I said to moneffect last night he gets time to prove me wrong which I hope he does.
I would give the lad a chance, do you think that the French foreign legion up the road give a damn for the rivalry, sometimes hostility and down right blind loyalty that we show our football teams? At least Danny Graham will appreciate all this before deciding to sign up for us! Alain Pardeux and Michel Ashlee are pin hooking with I'll admit some success at times from Ligue 1, however it's a bit different when you're riding high than from when you're in a scrap.
While I will back DG & never have booed a SAFC player, can I just point out to the poster that he was for personal reasons I'm led to believe desperate to move back to the north east. I don't believe the big club crap that's standard football talk. I appreciate peoples concerns with signing a mag & it should not be dismissed as wummery as Chopras comments this week is justification for this. This said I feel that if he's a success then he will enjoy his time here & overtime come to love the club, & when leaves look back with respect & fondness. If he's a flop like Chopra then he may make similar remarks. So let's get behind him & make sure he's a success.
It was something along the lines of "I see another geordie has signed for Sunderland ha, you will never see the geordies sign a mackem"
My take on this us it was fair to boo him last Tuesday as he was a Mag supporting Swansea player, he is Now a Sunderland player and whether or not he supports the Mags or anyone else is irrelevant, he'll get my whole hearted support. If he ****s up and does a Chopra or a Clarke MON will deal with it and then he'll no longer have my support and hopefully won't be at the club. MON knows the risks and feels he's worth the chance and MON has my backing, trust and support.
All kinds of **** coming out on the Swansea board. Should have got much more than 5m but unable to trap a ball, can't score from more than two yards and now He's snorting and glad he' s gone. Bitter as ****.
