How many times do I have to say, I have no argument. What is it I’m even arguing ??You’re obsessed about who’s the biggest between NUFC / WHUFC and keep trying to push me into it

Is that all 6,000 times ? I best pull my finger out.

You aren't arguing but scoffed at West Ham not finishing higher than third?

interesting theory, they’ve never finished higher than 3rd in their 124 year history ?

@Banks

how is this my first post on the matte ‘scoffing’ ?

ive purposefully used the term interesting to ensure it’s not argumentative nor derisive. You now keep probing me about how big West Ham and I keep telling you I agree they are a big club.

Newcastle are a massive club. They haven't won a trophy since the 50s?

I think despite any other criteria being taken into account, clubs who have never won or finished runners up in the league don’t tick all the boxes needed to be a truly big club.

West Ham do obviously tick other boxes and can certainly be categorised as a big club due to their large / loyal fan base, FA Cup wins, 1966 legacy and they have never played 3rd tier football.

😂😂😂Jesus....pathetic. I bet Man City fans are still devastated they played in the 3rd tier 21 years ago....😂😂😂

Comments from Sheff Utd fans before they visit the shit tip tomorrow. Seems that the general opinion of the self entitled deluded fuckwits stretches far outside Sunderland territory.

"Of all the arguments going on around football about whether it’s right or wrong that football is coming back, Newcastle are the most apathetic set of fans about it that I’ve come across.

All they give a sh.t about is the

stuff.’

‘I’m sure they will continue to be the pundits favourite super fans though.

Who doesn’t love a fat shirtless man on a 300 mile round trip on a January evening?’

‘If I had to watch the absolute, utter dross that Newcastle serve up as football, I’d be apathetic and hoping for a takeover as well.

Defend really deep, lump it to Saint-Maximin (he’s a very good one on one player to be fair) and hope he does something.

I do like Almiron though.

If he played for a manager (Rafa or

are basically playing the same formation and style) who allowed more than 3 players to attack at once I think he could be a fantastic player.’

‘Really really really REALLY want us to beat this lot. Lost last four against them in the league and as far as bogey teams go they’re an irritating bunch.’

‘Reyt mardy f.ckers them lot.’


‘Newcastle fans are strange and bitter bunch.

Had forgot about the Shelvey fiasco. Another incident where we’ve been robbed this season.’

‘Absolute nothingness from them for the past 10 years…

Incredible arrogance from a side that might as well have been in a decade long hibernation.’

‘Never minded Toon as a club but they are very up themselves.

Hope we right the wrong of us losing the last match at the Lane!

If we can keep Maximan quiet I don’t think there’s too much to fear, assuming we don’t play like Wednesday and the cameras, VAR, Hawkeye, the linesmen and refs eyes work, then we should be ok.’

‘They despise a fat bloke who doesn’t want to spend his money but are willing to support a regime that opposes basic human rights.

is clearly a tool but I’d rather work at Sports Direct than live in Saudi.’

‘Bruce was given a great start to his managerial career (a Sheffield United), only to run away when someone rattled the change in his trousers.

So pleased he was never allowed to manage the club when Ginola and Shearer were there.

Wilder will want this big time.’

Wouldn't it have been easier to put the link?

Tied in knots over what ? What am I even meant to be arguing ? Why’s everybody keep going about Newcastle and West Ham ? What petty dig ?

Because a mag on here earlier amended a list of “big clubs” and had you lot on and took west ham off.

So no big clubs have ever played in the 3rd tier? We are only there because we’ve been ran appallingly. Doesn't mean we arent a big club.

You said west ham are a big club as they havnt played in the 3rd tier

Not sure why you felt the need to bring up the 3rd tier thing then...no relevance really apart from a dig at SAFC.

the posts I was involved in where about the criteria of West Ham being a big club. I pointed out the pros and cons to their perceived status. The fact they have not played in that league in their 124 year history is a good achievement. I don’t need to aim digs at SAFC, I openly and gladly admit you’re a big club.

i said it’s one of the reasons they are a big club aswel as many others.
I also said I don’t think they can be classified as one of the really big clubs as they havnt won the league.
I genuinely can’t see anything that is not factual in that.
