    Yeah that reads like the journo wanted to have a pop at Sunderland so dressed it up as a Moyes to Scotland article, full of assumptions. Interesting that the writer apparently knows how much money we'll spend in January, Short must have told him personally.

    Not that I can't see it happening. If it does it'll be halfway through preseason for maximum damage.

    I would not be surprised if we went on a great run then the SFA give Moyes the Scotland job about Jan/Feb !, then what we get Pardew in and he gets the next England job.

    Torturing this prick on twitter. Basket case? He'll be trotting out words like Puffter and Paki for his next article no doubt. How he dare he use such offensive out dated drivel to describe our club? Especially with Rangers and the whole of Scottish football still in existence. <doh><laugh>

    He's thrown up PDC's fascism and AJ now. He really is sad sack. Ripping him to shreds with reasoning.

    Doubt it. Given that chunks of our fanbase are up for giving Ashley some (very tempered) credit we've got our fair share of fascist sympathisers.

    Chronical and Journal certainly but wasn't away the SS was considered a mag paper? You sure that isn't just a case of a paper hating all football teams?

    It's a sister paper to the Chronicle and Journal. All three run out of the same office. All the same rag essentially.

    Its nearly 20 years since I moved away from the North East and I can remember the SS giving us decent coverage but never on the scale that they gave to Newcastle, I agree Bri it has a definite mag bias.

    Got no idea why but since I was young I've always really disliked Scottish people.

    Been with me since I was a kid. I wouldn't like to say it's because I've met several ****s who were Scottish.

    I've met ****s from absolutely everywhere and remain impartial to most.

    I just really don't like Scottish people.

    I remember going on a week long school trip up to Pitlochry. We were taken round a distillery by the son of the owner one morning. Very polite and courteous he was.

    A bunch of us bumped into him in the town later in the day. A few of us gave him a smile and a hello to which he responded with, **** off back to England ya little bastards!!!

    That's the day I found out the English aren't universally loved <laugh>

    Great story. I want to like your post but I don't want anybody to take it the wrong way. Braveheart does get me riled up though. I wonder if the Scotland squad watched it last week.

    It's a lie.

    Doesn't mention that William Wallace was a turncoat/spy for the English.

    Good film mind.
