What on earth are you waffling on about?

Two local lads are playing in a World Cup Semi-Final. Where they play now, or played before is irrelevant. They are local lads, who are about to play for England in the biggest game for almost 30 years. Save the SAFC bollocks for August pet.

Tbf I’m now pretty convinced that this is an SAFC fan having a joke.

Is a snakebite a cocktail now?

He isn’t better than Henderson, he isn’t better than anyone in the squad, any one who thinks different is a bitter mag. Must be horrible for them to know the Sunderland lads are bringing it home.

All of the mags I know who openly dislike Henderson still say he’s a better player than Shelvey.

Not sure there’ll actually be many of them who think otherwise.

There's no denying Pickford's Sunderland roots, but Washington isn't Sunderland.

I've never met a single person from Washington who says they're from Sunderland. It's a town in its own right.

It's in Sunderland

So if people in Sunderland started paying council tax to Gateshead Council, who then put signs up saying "Welcome to Gateshead", would you tell people you're from Gateshead and accept that Sunderland is part of Gateshead?

Not meaning to sound like a **** like, but that's how most people from Washington feel about it.

They are divided by a river and the A19 so geographically, historically and by postcode, it just isn't Sunderland.

Sunderland is on both sides of the river and both sides of the A19

If ever there was a bite, this is it. And of course no Mags lapped up Gazza, Waddle and Beardsley in past world cups. Even though they fucked off first chance they got.

Fog on the Tyne my f***ing arse.

He's from Washington in the city of Sunderland.
 
Couldn't give a toss where anyone is from, as long as we win the World cup i will celebrate with Henderson, Pickford and anyone, even if they are wearing a Sunderland shirt, we are all ENGLISH for Fucks sake.
 
Of course he should.

That's why one is an unreliable, jobbing midfielder in a recently promoted team and the other has just played in a Champions League final and will soon play in a World Cup semi final, before playing for a big club next season including another Champions League campaign.

Obvious really.

True of course. Going back a bit but I was leaping all ower when Shearer put us ahead against Germany in 1996.

I'm from Washington, although was born in the old Borough of Sunderland only to move to Washington at the age of 12

Later it changed to City of Sunderland and still is
 
Getting to the stage where I genuinely pity him. :lol:

The lad's not well.

As for Pickford, I know the lad personally and he'd probably want to clout you if you said he was a Geordie.
