    I'm like if fans can't celebrate in real time, don't bother, I don't want tainted trophies. Standards bro.

    It's like that with goals these days with VAR. You celebrate, then its subdued as you wait for VAR then its either celebrate again or put up with the away fans celebrating. Really can't see what the difference between the likes of SKY being able to show the VAR lines live and them showing it in the grounds is ?

    Its akin to being told you ****ed Gal Gadot when you were hammered, and have no memory of it.
    Sure you could brag about it, but if you have zero recollection of it, did it even happen? :p

    If Chelsea sign a child on £15k a week who gets loaned out for seven years then sold to Vitesse Arnhem, was he ever really signed by Chelsea? It’s one of the great philosophical conundrums.

    Not really, the answers no.
    Apparently, that whole loan army tactic is being dismantled this summer. Boehly, with all of his football knowledge, doesnt like that plan.

    Think I may have mentioned this before but ACS is an actual mackem. He's as much as a Geordie as you are. He's also the only person in history to grow up supporting Sunderland before changing allegiance to Newcastle.

    Without specifically targeting the Sucksta, you are bang on ...

    When you've supported your home town team for over 50 years, and followed them home and away during your late teens and twenties to all corners of the land, with success limited to promotions, avoiding relegations and the odd good cup run, then actually winning the Premier League (and not by being able to go and buy the best / most expensive players) is footballing nirvana ...

    Yep, it's a 'never in your wildest dreams' moment for clubs such as ours, whereas they support clubs because it isn't, it's kinda expected.
    Like a poor person winning the lottery compared to billionaire winning it.

    You think you have a monopoly on enjoying your teams success because you rarely have any.?

    And that is why it is so much sweeter, and why we even celebrated losing the 2006 fa cup final.

    Not really the point mate, we was on about how winning things mean more to unsuccessful team fans.

    Which is utter bollocks like.

    Liverpool getting that slight glimmer of hope when Leicester nearly scored.

    So, how big a deal would it be if I changed allegiance to Sunderland?
