Is that not self evident?
Chin up old boy, you've survived, you should focus on what your team will do next season, not on an anonymous stranger on a message board.If you mean it's evident yr a curnt, then yes!

Sissoko's performances improved, but too little, too late.
Will there be a mock funeral when Rafa leaves??
Will the skunk stripe coffin come back out??
I'd like to see the coffin one more time, since we hammered the final nail in.
A nice. somber way to don the black and white choir boy vestments...
Despite my endeavours to converse with fellow Mackems, it seems OUR mb keeps getting visited & conversations interrupted by gravy stained scruff bags - now will you ferk off back to your hovel !
No idea, Steve Wraith is a law unto himself and yearns to be the voice of the fans but is viewed by most as a self publicising clown.
Interrupted you say? I'm not sure that's how message boards work.
The same owner who saved the club from financial meltdown when he came in, who bankrolled your promotion in 2010 and who made Newcastle the second highest spenders in the premier league and third in Europe last season despite shocking personnel abuse from your support. Aye he is a twat like. I hope he doesnt put a penny more into your mancky club.I'll answer the first bit, but the last question is a bit misleading.
The jibes about the Johnson scandal were in response to some wags trying to get a rise out of them. I think if a sunderland fan went on there and asked, in a reasonable fashion, for our opinions on the whole mess they'd see that the criticism falls mostly on the way the club behaved, and the behaviour of some of your fans (declaring they wouldn't care if he was guilty they'd still play him and declaring the victim was to blame etc.). If you were to ask if the perception was that all sunderland fans knew he was a sex offender and still applauded him, they'd say not. (I am, of course, speaking generally, there will be a couple of members who wouldn't respond reasonably to a reasonable question, just as there are members on this board who're similarly incapable.)
On the whole the consensus is that Sunderland A.F.C. knew he was pleading guilty to lesser counts and, on balance, thought it was acceptable to field him. That decision was likely made at a boardroom level and that decision was likely influenced by Johnson's perceived value to the team at that time ( it is the pervading wisdom that if he were a reserve player he'd have remained suspended). This was a board decision, not a fans decision. This was the club's fault, not the fans' fault.
In response to the last question, I'd honestly say that Sunderland had little to do with our relegation; McClaren wasn't able to plot a course with an expensive if unbalanced side, Benitez hasn't had time to right the ship, let alone turn the ship around. This relegation comes because of mismanagement from owner down. The villains in our story don't play in red and white, or claret and blue, they wear suits and are temporary custodians of Newcastle United.
You did. Sadly for you lot you kept the same CB pairing of Coco and Taylor and a full 8 seasons(?) on, they helped take you down again!We've played 35 other games. Not won many of them either
Managed it last time. Got shot of Martins, Viduka, Owen, Duff, etc.

At the time Colo & Taylor looked to be a decent centreback partnership, that obviously didn't transpire. That we didn't replace them is further indictment of Ashley's stewardship of the club.You did.

The majority of your support are arrogant, ungrateful tossers. Im sure Ashley rues the day he bought you and you are still a sad **** who spends his time on here.So no change then since we were in The Championship?
Re tacky billboards even the builder of the Hotch Potch extensions called it a carbuncle. Ashleys tacky boards fit in well.Yes, the man who didn't commit to due diligence, who oversaw our 1st relegation from the Premier League ever, who failed to invest in the squad when it was obviously required, who covered our stadium in tacky billboards for his tacky shop without paying for the privilege, who employed Joe Kinnear twice, Dennis Wise once, who promoted Lee Charnley to Director seemingly without basis, and so on and so forth...
Honestly, if you rate him so highly, would you want him at your club?

They weren't that decent,You got relegated! Ashley stumped up the cash. The fact you didn't do much to help out the defence, goes out to whoever controls your transfers. I will be honest, when i seen how much you were splashing out this season, i thought "The fuckers are going for it this year"Yes, the man who didn't commit to due diligence, who oversaw our 1st relegation from the Premier League ever, who failed to invest in the squad when it was obviously required, who covered our stadium in tacky billboards for his tacky shop without paying for the privilege, who employed Joe Kinnear twice, Dennis Wise once, who promoted Lee Charnley to Director seemingly without basis, and so on and so forth...

Remember Lee Hendrie from Villa, or Jody Morris from Chelsea? Little buggers were how I see Colback should be. Pests that buzz around the pitch breaking up attacks and rile the opposition up.
Completely thisTypical mag bollocks, you had been relegated before football was invented in 92

Why dont you go on a mag forum and chat about road trips to Rotherham, Burton or Wigan.
