I've never made up any stories on here, not once.

But I see you're now avoiding your failed thread with more personal stuff.

So much for the intelligent debate you're always bleating on about.

I've already said I'll be there.
 

Short needs to go. I don't understand the love he gets on this board. Yes he's put a lot of his own money into the club and yes he's tried to succeed. But he is failing miserably. Trying isn't enough when you simply can't do the job. The club has been at a standstill for years now, so close to going down every year. Our luck will run out, quite possibly this season. We have been managed terribly from top to bottom and the responsibility has to lie with Short. He is the man in charge and he has made some awful choices that have cost us massively. Not sure if a protest will do anything at all, Short probably wont even be at the match anyway so it's pretty pointless really.
 
Can't wait until Sky reporters get wind of it and start interviewing the types they usually love to show making a fuckwit of themselves.

Can't say I've seen much tbh.

He's failed but so have many others tbh.

If anyone could offer an alternative that would be great ..... so far, nothing.

As things stand he's the best offer on the table unfortunately.

If we were sitting mid table would you feel the same way?

What awful decisions has he made, that have cost us badly on the pitch this season? from what I've read, it's appointing PDC (who kept us up then he got rid early season after when it wasn't going to work out), trying the DOF model (which he tried as money was already being wasted then binned it to get Sam) and Byrne, which whatever her role, she wasn't involved with anything that happens on the pitch. So these mistakes, none of them are here now and we've spent money since then on the squad.
 
Politicians try and fail spending millions of pounds of public money on projects that go tits up, paying stupid money to consultants for no return. They get roundly hammered by all on here. Shorts mistakes cost the club millions yet people on here think it's not his fault. It's everyone else's fault, every manager is crap, every player lazy, every agent a con artist, every extra wage in violation of FFP. Well other clubs seem to just get on with it. Make no mistake Short needs to ultimately step up to the plate and you fanboys need to admit that the buck ultimately stops with him.

The DOF model works well elsewhere such as Southampton and Watford so I have no problem in Short trying that.

With Byrne, I remember Quinny waxing lyrical about her when he was chairman so I reckon she was his recommendation to Short.

Then why is it such a big issue to you and others that people are not allowed to voice their frustrations?

Not all of these people are coffin carrying tracksuit wearing imbeciles.
 
PDC. Bring him home.

Least the fuckers were fit.

Often I wonder how he would have done if the club showed a spine and told the mutineers to shut up and earn their millions.

It may have been an unmitigated disaster but we aren't smelling of roses now either.

But he was bat shit crazy.

Who said it's a big issue, I'm simply posting an opinion just as you are.

Btw, will you be at the protest with Haway?

I think it's more just a question of what you think it will achieve. Personally if someone wants to shout in Sunderland to a fella in texas that he dosent want him in Sunderland anymore then that's up to him.
 
Fighting in the North stand? Whereabouts? I've not seen owt of that nature whatsoever. Was it in the concourse or in the seats? Arguing about the team or just pissed fellas fancying a row?

I may be. I was the one who got the big printed Murray out banner made that was on all the back pages many years ago. I'm not an imbecile, not inbred, and not a part time fan, in fact nothing like the type of person that any protester is getting type cast as in this thread.

Because the world is a smaller place these days and if your customers are unhappy with what you are selling them then you tend to find out about it.
