No one's going mental mate, it's just a bit of fun.
In all honesty, last season wasn't the only time we've finished above Newcastle recently.
Even before your relegation you were quite poor and the wheels were falling off.
We've been here for 5 seasons whereas you've been in the Championship.
You signed nuggets like Kuqi last season and are signing unproven players now.
I'd say that's more than a fanny's hair,
aye but the kuqi signing was only a stop gap, albeit a ridiculous one. We needed a body after Carroll leaving. If Sunderland had of dine the same then the gap between us could have been larger but it wasn't.
My point is that there is a lot of people desperate for the roles to be reversed with us being vastly inferior to yous after the last two decades and at the moment it clearly isn't. I take on board your unproven players point but this surely also applies to dong, wickham etc. We can only take into consideration the present and not seculate over the future. Rest assured that if yous do put some daylight between us then I won't go hiding on the matter as I'm sure you won't if this, and it is only an if ,fails to materialise.
