I guess we will have to agree to disagree.... apart from a few infrastructure developments I still see people unemployed, companies going bust... if Nissan pulled the plug the town would be f ucked. The general feel of Sunderland has declined in the 30 odd years since I left the area... but if you’re happy
Has there been any actual evidence of the 'Micky Gray consortium' other than what he's said. I know I'm not in the NE but I've seen more proof of flying saucers ... ... Mrs Smug flung one at me last night when I wouldn't log off here
The only thing that has been suggested as to why he could be involved is due to how quiet he has been on the matter as if he’s signed an NDA
He may not have had a lot of publicity from this, but you can guarantee that he’ll add it to his list of ‘achievements’, the day he almost bought SAFC.
Tbh I think the town centre is about to become better than it ever has been, I am in my early 40's, the pubs and nightlife were brilliant when I was a teenager / early 20's, got married and went to live in Hebburn mid 20's....from then everything went massively downhill with the shutting of VAUX which seemed to take a lot with it. We have waited 20 years for the Council to start spending on the City and the Re-generation of VAUX and there seems to be money getting spent everywhere - It seems to be a massive push to bring Sunderland into the 21st century and Im pretty impressed with everything thats going on tbh. Hopefully the Football club is next
