Benitez Future In Doubt Over Failure to Secure Key Signings

Think it was Ferguson who spoke about strengthening from a position of power.

Allardyce was rough for you because you had the momentum and the basis of a decent squad. Then something out of ordinary happens and suddenly all that strength seems to evaporate. 2 or 3 bad decisions and suddenly you're in a tailspin. Happened before with Bent and Gyan. Things looked rosy, then something out of the ordinary happens and suddenly you're in trouble. Not necessarily bad choices by the board that lead to regression, more unusual events that weren't dealt with wisely.

For us it was failure to identify which direction momentum is taking us. It was obvious we were in trouble when we went down in 2009, and the wrong decisions were made too late. Obvious we could secure midtable/top half with the right recruitment in 2012, but we failed to buy early and wisely. Obvious we were going down in 16 but the decision to boot McClaren came too late. And so on.

big shock this like

I think they gambled on McClaren getting an upsurge after the window, when that didn't materialise they still didn't act quickly enough. They should have pulled the trigger quicker than they did, 5 games when by without them getting rid.

To be honest, they should have pulled the trigger after Crystal Palace destroyed us 5-1 in November. Give the new bloke a month to work what he needs, give him the January window, hope that the new manager bounce happens during a busy period to exaggerate its impact.

Short would have been forgiven for getting rid of Moyes after he'd overseen 10 games without a win.

fwiw I think Moyes could recover, but he needs to fall in love with football again. Throughout his tenure as Sunderland manager he looked a beaten man. It's like your mate who says he wants a lass, but mopes about his house instead of getting trim, and going out. Guarantee Moyes has clicked on one of those "Girls in your local area" adverts at least once. Probably after the Bournemouth result.


Same at TT, one transfers thread and if the player signs, he gets his own thread.
MOYES is a busted flush - finished.
 
Didn't you fire off a number of emails in an attempt to get a local journalist removed from his position?

Not as many as we fired to keep Bong Eye in a job......that Fookin Bell represents the stereotypical gobshoite for the Geordie nayshun......
 
Among many others yes not sure of relevance to commenting it was a decent article mind

It's relevant because you're scoffing at a Newcastle United fan's criticism of a journalist when you sent a number of emails in an attempt to get a journalist sacked. It's canny ironic tbf.

I'm going to go out on a limb (without even reading the article) and suggest that it's a negative piece on Newcastle United going by your review.

Positive on Sunderland/Negative on Newcastle - Decent article
Negative on Sunderland/Positive on Newcastle - Poor article

Is the rule of thumb to some...

Still don't get the connection like but carry on. It's not a Sunderland supporter who called Newcastle c..t's! As he did, but carry on.
And it was a measured argument. But hey you didn't read it.
And the comments are completely denying there is any frustration which is clearly not the case.
 
Obviously* f***ing prick. :lol:

Eh? I'm obviously a Sunderland fan the same way you are still obviously obsessed with all things Newcastle.. another MLF sadly lost down that path of hatred that leads to obsession over their rivals football team and fans.

It's okay mate, we are all here for you. We understand.

Make another fanzine, record another song, start another riot, punch another horse, have another Blue Moon Day or another relgation party, sign up to another Sunderland forum etc etc etc.

Sad fucker. :lol:
