MA must be rubbing his hands - how many people will be betting on Norwich, Swansea/Brentford, Watford to stay up? Also Brighton looking poor and who knows what will happen at Palace. Meanwhile Everton finished two places above with Iwobi (34m) and Gomes (22m) on the bench. He can achieve the same on a minimal spend.
Hoy in Burnley and palace and Southampton
 

It's class seeing all the revisionism by the mags on here to justify crying like fuck and abusing Bruce all season.
OK, but when their revisionism is because they did better than expected it is strange that you derive pleasure from that.

Regrettably Sunderland’s revisionism is doing worse than the automatic promotion that was almost certain 3 months back.

It is a strange argument to take pleasure from the better fortune of your “hated rival”. Especially, when your consistent posting through February and March was taking pleasure from their likely relegation.

Reverse schadenfreude, perhaps, but you seem to be the one guilty of ‘revisionism’.

Let’s get on with supporting Sunderland, eh, rather than pretending you are happy about Newcastle finishing 12th.

Dear me, they’re like cockroaches - just keep coming back. I suppose it’s something to take their minds off having Brucey for another season.

As long as he can keep them up he’ll be there until some docile bastard comes along and gives fat mick the required amount of dosh. He doesn’t give a shiny shite what their fans think, he’s happy to keep plodding along as long as it’s not costing him a fortune. Everyone knows this. Especially them. And it’s tearing them up inside. That’s their long term future as things stand.

So in their first 2 seasons both managers spent around £100 million each. The only real difference is that we made the money back under Rafa by selling most of our existing players where as with the exception of Perez all of the players who have left under Bruce had no value therefore left for nothing. I hate to point out the odvious but if the recruitment was so good under Rafa why have all the signings he has made left for less money than what we paid for them?
So they have spent the same and achieved the same points and same mid table finish. Yet one is a failure and one is fantastic. Great logic. Both have done well but odviously after the vitriol spewed by some it will never be acknowledged"

Fuck me a sensible Mag in the Wafa v Cabbage debate 🤣🤣🤣

****True facts****

1. In the 1400s a law was set forth in England that a man was allowed to beat his wife with a stick no thicker than his thumb.

Hence we have 'the rule of thumb.'

2. Many years ago in Scotland , a new game was invented. It was ruled 'Gentlemen Only...

Ladies Forbidden'... and thus the word GOLF entered into the English language.

3. Each king in a deck of playing cards represents a great king from history:

Spades - King David,

Hearts - Charlemagne,

Clubs -Alexander the Great,

Diamonds - Julius Caesar

4. In Shakespeare's time, mattresses were secured on bed frames by ropes. When you pulled on the ropes the mattress tightened, making the bed firmer to sleep on. Hence the phrase......... 'goodnight, sleep tight.'

5. It was the accepted practice in Babylon 4,000 years ago that for a month after the wedding, the bride's father would supply his son-in-law with all the mead he could drink.

Mead is a honey beer and because their calendar was lunar based, this period was called the honey month, which we know today as the honeymoon.

6. Since 1990, Newcastle United fans have said they are going to win the league at the start of every football season, hence the phrase ‘deluded tw#t’.

Only number 4 and 6 are actually true.
