I thought the booing was really bad form and a disgrace. I think he is a good player and there was a huge gap between midfield and Fletcher last night Graham could be the link we need.. I am afraid the thickos really showed themselves up last night. Sunderland is a great club with a great history and is better than that. I doubt Graham was impressed and it will not help our plight. Just to remind everybody, we have two strikers now. Unbelievable.

Danny graham does not play for us. He openly supports Newcastle and slags us off.

For this reason the booing was totally to be expected last night.

Interesting you chiose to use the word thicko about someone with a different opinion than yours?

Its like me saying that some soft ****es will just bend over a allow anal entry to all and sundry, no matter how many times they are abused verbally or humiliated.

I wouldn't use such words though as we are all entitled to opinions and before you come back, no I didn't boo and never would but fully understand and appreciate why some did. Its not for me to judge people.
 
When the **** are we going to get this deal done?

All the talk over this last month, last nights match has been and gone and yet here we are, still waiting. Makes you wonder....
 
I would never boo a player that wears the SAFC shirt (probs because i rarely get to see them), however reading this thread (and i might be wrong) never once I have seen lets boo the manager, lets boo the owner. At the end of the day its these football men who want Danny Graham to serve them, if it fails then you can defo blame DG but you should also blame and boo MoN and ES and ask for their heads. Not something i will ever do mind, I welcome and support anyone who plays and works for our glorious club.

NMG - I'm originally from Easington, I'm not a devious geordie bastard so **** off you devious geordie cock sucker.
 
Few things here.

Would i care who a player supported or where they were born if they were coming to Newcastle? No i don't think I would. If Shearer had been a Mackem I think we'd still love him for what he did as a player for us (though be slightly more suspicious of what he did as a manager!!).

Would I care if a player had previously slagged us off? It depends how. If they had refused to come to us or left us an made negative comments then I don't want them at the club. If its minor comments because we are their rivals then who cares, honestly if your best player made comments about us this season and then signed for us in the summer it wouldn't be a problem for me.

What matters is whether he's good enough to be worth the money. I'm not sure but then again I thought Fletcher was hideously over-priced and it just showed that O'Neill actually knows what he's doing. If O'Neill thinks Graham can do a job for you then he almost certainly can - you need another striker, they're hard to find and here you have a Premiership striker who is local, at a low price and wants to come for, presumably, not big wages. Its a low risk buy.

Sunderland manager Martin O'Neill revealed after the 0-0 draw with Swansea that he is hoping to bring in at least two players before the transfer deadline.

He said: "We have made bids for a couple of players, but we didn't make them overnight, we made them some time ago.

"Of course, it's absolutely the prerogative of the team to whom we have put these bids in either to accept or not accept as the case may be.

"We wouldn't be the only club in that sort of position, this idea that we are waiting until January 31.

"There may be a host of signings in the next 48 hours, I don't know, but there's every possibility because that seems to have been the way of it in the last number of years."

Sunderland have been strongly linked with Swansea striker Danny Graham although O'Neill has yet to make his interest public.

Graham's appearance as a second-half substitute at the Stadium of Light was booed by sections of the home crowd, a reflection of his Geordie roots and his comments about their club in a fanzine interview

O'Neill said with a smile: "I think he is himself reportedly a Newcastle fan, so I think the reaction to that was probably quite a natural reaction. But Bob Stokoe was looking down at him."

-----------------------------

Looking at the last paragraph says it all for me... MON is living in a bygone era. As supporters of SAFC we have had to endure clark, choprat and bruce since the days of 73.... The dynamics of how the fans react to associates of nufc has completely changed over the last 15 years....

I hope MON is still smiling in 12-24 months time however I doubt he will be. The problem with signing Danny Graham is that it is a foregone conclusion that it will go pear-shaped. Accidents waiting to happen are always foregone conclusions and it is only a matter of time....

If Graham comes in before the deadline, I'll stick to my word and depart. Don't wish to spoil whatever delusions that the remaining fans will have about the future. Bitterly dissapointed in MON.


would you like some cheese with your whine.

If anyone see's a dummy on the ground, chuck it back into Pie's pram.

Grow up man.

Half Time.
At least you'll remember the last match you attended. Don't think you'll be missed.
Bye bye

If he does come and it seems he has now, knuckles down, avoids any black and white pitfalls, works hard for the team and scores goals he will be fine.

As someone who often enjoys swimming against the tide on many issues, I actually am warming to Grahams attitude here.

Despite the animosity he has pushed this deal through and deserves our support for that alone.
 
Not arsed if he comes or not, average at best, and that's not sour grapes, but I hope we have someone else lined up, Gary Hooper would my preference like, along with an attacking midfielder and a defender
 
Celtic reject third bid for Hooper from Norwich.

If we wanted DG or not Tuesday must have made him and us think twice about signing such an unpopulasr player. ji gone, Saha gone, Campbell gone. Something surely must be on.
