We regularly play well and have a good record against the bigger clubs, think Arsenal and Man City this year but still struggle to beat the smaller, lesser profile ones such as Newcastle. Discuss.
The thread is misguided because Newcastle are both a bigger and a higher profile club than Sunderland.
My pleasure Jacky. It's worth mentioning that Leeds are a bigger club than either Newcastle or Sunderland.
Leeds 18, you confused me with your name change. I know we had a bit of chow before but my mate Bolyne Ali helped smooth it out so nee bother, hows it going?
Cestria mackem The worst wum of anyone on the board and yet he does not see it Perhaps he is worried that his prophecy in my sig has moved a step closer to biting him on the arse...
Shall we get our respective histories out again for the lads? Just to clarify the situation? AGAIN. Sunderland have been 6 times champions of England to your what? Record high score and whilst we are on, record derby score as well. Who has the biggest recorded crowd between the two? Who was the last of us to actually win something and see it today on DVD in colour. Lol Most telling of course is the absolute fact that we had to play charity games to keep you afloat in your early days. No club with all these facts against themcan claim to be bigger than SAFC. Dream on barcodes. Dream on.
Here you go mate. The English top ten rankings. Enjoy 1, Manchester United 2, Liverpool 3, Arsenal 4, Everton 5, Aston Villa 6, Chelsea 7, Sunderland 8, Newcastle United 9, Sheffield Wednesday 10, Blackburn Rovers Add to that the fact Newcastle have won nowt since the Fifty's? I think we'll be North East top dogs for a while yet.
back to the op wum or not we must beat the lesser teams on a regular basis and the top games wins will happen occasionly if we whant to go places get into europe and the we can start upwards and onwards
