He wants the mags to win now just so he can say I told you so. He, along with several others have had f***ing 'mares on this thread.

Unless it's v one of our relegation rivals wanting them lot to win is plain wrong. Even then it ain't right.

So what's the craic then Keithy boy? I'd imagine it has to go ahead (IMO only fair as those who contributed do so for the plane and NOT just for charity).

Firstly you make out because you travel 700 miles round trip to home games your opinion is more worthy than anybody else's :rolleyes::rolleyes:

Secondly do you hand on heart think anybody but the 150 fans who have contributed will find it amusing, my guess is anybody from outside the North East will not even have a clue what it's about, it's not even funny, most will be thinking "what's that, don't get it, back to watching the match"

Couldn't care less who gets it,as long as the mags do.

I don't need to make out thats what I do! I know others do but I was just saying that so you knew where I was coming from with this idea, I have never claimed that my opinion is more valid than anyone elses, but I am not the one trying to ram my opinion down anyones throat and telling them what they should or shouldn't do. I respect the fact people don't want this to happen but I am not trying to ram what I think down your throat hoping you will change your mind about it. I have been pretty quiet about what you and others have said but I have got sick of you all assuming we are schoolchildren and insulting the people that are doing this.

Hand on heart I don't care what anyone else thinks (apart from those that put the money in) if the media pick up on it and the full story comes out then so be it, for the record living down here I have spoken to quite a few fans from various different clubs Man U, Chelsea, Palace, Spurs, Southampton, Charlton, Millwall, Reading I could go on and for the record they all think its funny

It would have had to have been a school that lets a early to mid 30's person attend as a pupil! To give you an idea I travel 700 miles round trip for home games I have done 80% of away games this season so if I want to spend my money on a little light relief at the expense of our near neighbours not you or anyone else is going to stop me thinking its a bad idea however much you slag me and the others that have donated off as the traveling and expense has not given me any light relief so far this season but last Sunday made it all worthwhile. I bet if it is a resounding success and the whole country is laughing at the mags once the full story comes to light next week you and the others knocking this now will be at the front of the cue taking the credit for it!

I won't stop you thinking it's a bad idea.

What you don't get Keith is that the time between the win and the plane going over is too great, it has lost all it's impact and humour. Everyone knows that comedy is all about the timing. If by some chance you'd had a plane on standby to fly over the SOL with the 5-0 message at full time it would have been hilarious, brilliant, but not now. This is desperation to get one over on them but they'll lap it up and laugh their tits off at you. It's your choice and your money so good luck to you but I'm cringing at the thought, not cringing for me because I have nothing to do with it but I'm cringing for you mate.

Think it's only fair to say that thunder Keith's baby. He just opened a PayPal to use when the mags cried the original fund raiser out of use. The plane wasn't his idea either , it was a popular idea.

Think you meant to say "move along" as for sad sack think you will find the fact that you have the time and energy into a) be a mod on a messageboard and b) time to mastermind pre pubescent pranks make you considerably sadder than the average bloke in the street.

Firstly, nobody masterminded the plane. It was a joke in response to the mags planning a protest that snowballed. I donated £5 and had a laugh. When the mags (the supporters of a relegation rival who you want to win 4-0) curtailed the funding raising I offered to help to stop the mags getting one over on us.

I was asked to be a mod on this site. There are times when I do no modding for days on end, there are times I'm on here quite a bit, the same as you. The majority of the time it takes less time a day than it's taken me to reply to you.

BTW how many do you want the mags to win by tonight?
 
The whole idea is f***ing pathetic and far too late. I work on the doorstep of sid James and the mags were saying today it's really quite sad and small time and they will just retaliate with similar WHEN we go down AGAIN!

We are better than this! Just give it to a deserving charity!

That's just it I don't get the fact you travel 700 miles as a reason for this going ahead, I travel 600 miles round trip for every home game and thinks it's a terrible idea. As for ramming opinions down people's throats, this is a messageboard, a social medium for expressing opinions, what people are doing with this plane reflects on each and every Sunderland fan.
