This is becoming extremely embarrassing.

The shipyard workers don't seem to have a problem and surely they hold a more relevant/valid opinion than the f***ing DMA...:confused: considering all the yards/workers were based/lived IN Sunderland and they were also predominately socialist Labour voters also....!

I've asked my dad for this reason and he's 100% behind PDC!

Hopper is boiling my piss!!!!!!!:evil:

As I stated earlier, what about the teachers who founded the club, without whom, we may not have an SAFC?

This is really the truth (or at least the best part of it). You have to acknowledge why unions came to be though - to balance exploitation by the employers. But then they get too powerful and exploit the situation too. It's the great sine wave of life, lurching from one extreme to the other when taking the middle ground throughout would have been best for everyone in the long run.

Bottom line - people are greedy and short-term, and this is driven by millions of years of the "selfish gene" (aka evolution).

It's really not complicated at all.

Pure hypocrisy on their part as far as I'm concerned. The whole thing was a pathetic attempt at some media exposure.
 
This bunch just seem like the type who love to be outraged by something. Give it a few months and it'll be the teenage mothers or the kid from next door whose football keeps coming over the fence and flattening the plants.

I bet the majority aren't even Sunderland fans, just storm in a teacup idiots who like the sound of their own voice enjoying the attention from the papers etc.
 
if any of them are protesting outside the stadium and they approach me they'll be told to roundly FUCK OFF, and leave my club alone.

This just about sums up the left:

a) The only way to achieve our means is through violence.
b) Problem is we can't get the support because people aren't 'clued up', aka 'they're stupid'.

In every left-wing movement since the year dot: the French revolution; the Russian Revolution; the countless left-wing revolutions in Africa and South America, a few determined individuals have concluded that they need to force people to be 'free' because they're to stupid to understand the concept of freedom - and in their minds the people will thank them for it later.

Except the people don't thank them because it invariably leads to chaos and broken promises.

Same with the Trade Unions but on a more democractic scale. They coerce and cajole people into believeing them and promise better times.

Problem for the bloke who wrote that article is that some people did believe them. Many people followed them. And look where it got them? Once bitten twice shy.

The concept of a union is a grand idea. It is intended to provide some balance between employer and worker. Problem is that power corrupts and when the balance between union leaders and their representatives is skewed, then the union leaders take over the asylum and start making decisions in their interests. They lose sight of the bigger picture which is accepting change and innovation as a means to maintaining a competitive industry.

Britain's union leaders presided over failing, uncompetitive industries - and for that they must take the blame for the decimation of Britain's heavy industry.

They failed their representatives/workers - people no longer have faith in them or socialist ideas. The bloke who wrote that article should take a look in the mirror and ask himself: are we really that stupid that we just can't see what they can see? or is it a case they are not trusted anymore on the back of the experience of what they do from a position of power.

Does Nissan have a union I don't work ther but I've been told they have to work hard for there money but the plant is the most efficient in the world of car making and the workers are looked after

Nissan has a union, but the membership is only around 35 per cent. As for looking after the workers, no its a shit place to work with ridiculous overtime levels, the up side is that top of band pay is excellent for the region.

Seems to me the miners are keeping the issue in the media without reason, which inceases the potential for extremists to latch onto it

Whilst I agree that extreme views can be dangerous, I know loads of Ex Miners from Durham who dont seem that peturbed about Di Canio being in charge. All they seem to be botherd about is the club doing well/

Good for them. They can take their lack of support elsewhere.

We haven't appointed Hitler.

A category into which I fall, and I'm in full agreement with your marras.
