Our current squad better than the mags

Aye but to be fair your lot have previous for finishing bottom... 3 PL bottom placed finishes is it ?!?!?!

I have no memory of the context around that statement you quote. I genuinely dont think there is much between us at the time. We had Defoe, Lens, Borini and Pickford at the time of that entry.

2 months on, you bought a right back who wasn't good enough to displace Billy Jones with all respect to Billy Jones. Other than Ritchie and Dwight i wouldnt particularly want any of your players if we were in the premier league. Your team reminds me of WBA a few years back. Far too good for the championship but no where near good enough for the premier league.

A very fair assessment. We arent good enough for the Prem. If we stay up it will be down to luck and graft similar to a Burnley - than quality.

We got to a cup final on those seasons. When was the last time you did that.

How did that pan out for you? What medal did you achieve? We can all do this - when was the last time you played in Europe or finished fifth? It doesnt mean shite. Cardiff, Birmingham and Wigan have won cups recently where are they now? Why cant you just admit that your team is shit - im not saying ours is any better, christ we are awful but why is it so hard for you to admit?

Yet you have been in a relegation battle year in and year out. Congratulations on beating us 6 in a row by the way, the way you waffle on about that its as if we are some great team we arent we are shite perhaps if you had managed a few more victories against other teams you wouldnt be in the championship. Badly managed and motivated is only part of the problem, you were also shite.
Where did I state we were a "great team"? 1 loss in 12 is mid table form, something 99% of Sunderland fans would be happy with, unlike your great deluded masses who genuinely believe you are a top 4 team.
The point I was making is that whilst making comparisons it is important to take into account the makeup of the squad as much as individual talents of the players. In your case, I'd be hoping to Christ that "Raffa" has got a good team spirit going because he/you/they have fuck all else to get excited about
 
They say we were in a relegation battle for 6 years. They don't mention that we got to Wembley .

Read my post again, you use the six in a row badge of honor as if it means anything. You beat another relegation battling team six times in a row, so f***ing what - where are you now? Those results did nothing for you. Sure it was feel good factor to beat your rivals but its not like we are a top club that you are thrashing year after year.

Jesus wept man, why can you not just admit your team was shite? What next are you going to tell me that your dad is bigger than mine ffs?

Im not bothering with this - keep blaming Moyes and thinking you are great. You clearly arent capable of reasonable unbiased debate.

Im a Newcastle fan and we are shite. Why do you find it so bloody difficult to do the same.

It's easier for us as we don't have the same inferiority complex that Mackems have. The 90's and early 00's really fucked them up and it'll probably take them decades to fully recover
