Please answer just one question, something you rarely do.
Why do you always want to sound as if you want to be the leader of the board, you sound more like Gary Glitter tbh.
Don't you think people are capable of speaking for themselves?
Everything's just fine

I am a fan who is entitled to an opinion on a football message board without tubes like you just looking for an argument (after all, I am not the only person you have had personalised arguments with since your depressing return am I).
This board has no more significance in life than a pub debate would but your the one placing the immense gravitas on it? I am leading nothing but I do post opinions. Opinions that have been agreed with or disagreed with and either choice is fine. What is irritating, is 'think they know it alls' like you just wanting to drag every post down to a personal challenge with anyone who doesn't agree with you. No one was ever interested in your drivel last time you were on here and they are not now. Join in the debate and offer your thoughts and opinions as you see fit (its a free forum) but keep the personal attacks to yourself. You are, as you always did previously, simply spoiling any good debate about the issues of the day. Its boring.
You haven't answered the question, as usual ....... you're incapable of answering anything you can't handle.
You are the one who gets personal, calling fellow Sunderland supporters deluded, blind, unintelligent or whatever.
How come snides like you can dish it out by the bucketful but throw their hands up in horror if anyone questions you?

Answered what exactly? You asked if I was leader of the board and I said I wasn't?
Is English actually your first language or do you struggle a bit to read without help? Bless.
That's a pathetic comment for a grown man tbh.
I was asking why you always speak on behalf of other people and who you believe you represent ...... surely that's plain English.
So, can you answer the question or not?
shut up I want to stick my head in the sand and think everything is rosyGreat team selection; tactics and performance. We were so obviously the better team again and should have won by 9 or 10 goals. I was relieved to see the team sheet and see Altidore nowhere near it and even more excited to see the pacy nimble Larsson in central midfield and the goal poacher extraordinaire Ji up front with Wickham. I was so pleased to see Cabral overlooked again as well.
My immediate emotion was one of excitement and anticipation for the victory to come and to watch the sparkling free flowing passing football we all crave. Shut up I want to stick my head in the sand and everything is rosy
Okay, then I woke up.
Where was Altidore? Injured? Sick? Or dropped?
What is this fascination with Ji? He is a shocking footballer and offers nothing at all? Would rather have played Mandron with Wickham. Ji is PDC's choice not forced on him.
Why is Cabral suddenly a leper? Where is the likes of Ba?
If MoN had put this team out and served up that utter ****e there would be mass demonstrations on this board and people full of fury venting their spleens at each other.
Where it not for the brilliance of Fletcher who actually looked like a striker and gave us a massive goal threat after 5 months out, today would have been the worst day so far under PDC.
Getting better? Are we **** we are as bad if not worse than under MoN although I'm sure there will be plenty out there offering excuse after excuse.
I raised a thread on Tuesday saying PDC was in trouble and was castigated for it but whether you all like it or not I'll say it again.
We are in trouble and all PDC's after-match interview told me is he has no ideas beyond wanting MORE players (he has brought in 11 already btw) to give him more options to change the team, formation and plan on a game by game basis.
What will be the team against Arsenal, Liverpool and Man Utd (our next 3 games) is anyone's guess but I'll guarantee you now it wont be the same one for all 3. We have little plan, little thought and no consistency in the thinking. Chopping and changing players from game to game is amateurish behavior, or hauling people off in humiliating fashion may have worked for him in the 3rd division but this is the EPL and I am afraid I have severe doubts he has what it takes to manager at this level at all. In his 10 competitive games his teams have had 4 dismissals; scored 10 goals and conceded 16. 9 points from 30 available and W2/D3/L5 20% win ratio.
In those 10 games we have not exactly played top class team either. Southampton; Stoke; Villa; Fulham; Crystal Palace and the Nags. Only Chelsea, Spurs and Everton were top class teams imo. We look disjointed and tactically poor so far this season and baring a remarkable comeback against a lower league team on Tuesday we would be starring down a barrel right now already this season.
I know I will get the usual stick and grief and no doubt be called a mag or a ****e supporter blah blah blah but we are already in a relegation fight in my mind already and I have massive doubt as to whether PDC has what it takes. PDC has returned 0.9 points per game in his 10 game run and that doesn't equate to many points over 38. I'm not saying that this is how it will all go this season but its clear to even the most loyal and supportive fan that all is not well. PDC is talking a good fight but I'm afraid 1 wonderful derby game should not cloud our judgement that the football is rank. This is his team already as he has brought in 11 of HIS players so we can judge him right now but he isn't picking them or is subbing them at the drop of a hat.
Like I said, if MoN had put out that midfield and paired Ji with Wickham and lost the game 3-1 today he would have been called every name under the sun.
We're in the **** all right and we need to get out the **** asap but our next 5 games are Arsenal, WBA, Liverpool, Man Utd, and Swansea. Thank **** for Swansea as without them we would be bottom right now. Our 6th game is against the filth. I think by the time we play them on the 27th September we will be cut adrift and be firmly entrenched in the dogfight. We had to get off to a decent start this season with the fixture list we were given. We have had a mare of a start imo.
Okay, over to all the abuse I will no doubt get right now....it wont change our position though.
shut up I want to stick my head in the sand and think everything is rosy
You are not alone in that thinking mate but I'm afraid all is not rosy as some would like to believe. If people want to have a pop at me for having an opinion on that then so be it?
Tbf, since you have 'come back' you have done nothing but get up peoples backs.
It must be difficult being you (no offence meant ) I will just keep the blind faith and get the piss took out of me every Monday morning at work .From the glory hunting twats down here .
Ah Blind faith? That mystical ingredient that has kept SAFC a potentially big club for over 40 years mate? I always had blind faith for the first 25 years following SAFC all round the country but as I got older I replaced blind faith with critique and my own opinions. I wish I still had blind faith mate as it would be far easier to swallow, especially as I have to live on a daily basis with piss taking mags who despite having a load of bell ends owning, managing and playing for them still manager to finish higher up the league than we do decade after decade on more occasions.
That kind of stuff on a daily basis for 30 odd years kind of dents the blind faith quite a lot let me tell you.
Someone has to counteract the little clique if miseries who think that only they can see anything.
And here we have it, just as I predicted ....... "the people who support the club are the ones holding it back!"
You just knew that was coming.
Ha ha ........
Except when they're relegated ....... I knew you worked with Mags, got it written all over, I know the type.
You just trot the same ****e out like diarrhea ...... 'blind faith' .... 'I can see what's happening' ..... 'my opinions' ..... 'don't care what people think'
Do you never get tired of hammering away at the club?
There's just no balance with you. Whereas some can hope and keep faith, while recognising the concerns, you just see nothing but the bad.
What a miserable specimen.
...and what do you base that on?ROFL.
"Ah Blind faith? That mystical ingredient that has kept SAFC a potentially big club for over 40 years mate?"
You were obviously too busy licking your buddy's arse to notice, it was only a few posts above yours.
You cant blame anyone for being dissilusioned. This breeds sceptisism! With decades of hopes being dashed, its natural! Especially when a persons wasted alot of time, money and effort on it, only to be let down by something somewhere between mediocrity to absolute ****ness!!! I'm sitting on the fence at the minute! Its not too early to worry, but its far to early to give up! We'll see how we do crossing the minefield that is the next 2-3 months! After that we will have some idea whether the revolution has worked! If not, it may be time to start polishing the guillotine!
I did not read it, so what? It had nothing to do with my point. And 'likcing my buddys arse', really?!?! I've had many a disagreement with Cest in my time.
You and Cest are too similar to ever get along.
