A bit like your Fairs Cup win in 1969...the year that man landed on the moon

If you beat us 9-1 in 1909 you wouldn't ignore it on the basis of it was over 100 years ago



Have you got the clip where Krul is congratulating JD ?

Hmmm, they're talking about going back to the moon next year. Omen or what :)
 

He kind of has a point 3 clubs spent a shite load of cash and all 3 clubs are crap you couldn't even make a competitive team from the 3 clubs, something is very wrong in the North East with football.

It doesn't matter what division you are in you will still support your team, we have all been brain washed that the premiership is the place to be but really apart from the top six, there is very little chance of winning anything. yet we are told we have to be there but what's the point if the money earned is not spent wisely , there is very little chance of winning anything anyway, at least in lower divisions you have a chance of winning that particular league or play off trophies and you will see your team win games.Surely that's what's it's all about.The fact that the North East teams are reduced to hoping that they avoid relegation is dire.We both have a fan base to rival anyone in the country, the potential at both clubs is massive, yet i fear that we will never ever see the North east teams winning a domestic trophy in our life time and yes i know fuck off

Apart from the 2 seasons under Readies tenure, which probably raised our expectations above the realistic, I and most supporters of my age (50 plus) are probably realistic in our hopes, in that we would like to be entertained and made proud, by players who have a passion for our club. I think that it the younger generations who have expectations, wildly exceeding reality!

And yet Portsmouth, Wigan, Swansea, Middlesbrough and Leicester above all have shown that there is a very real chance of winning something even if you're not top 6, which has to be better than going to f***ing Accrington or Fleetwood for anything other than a good piss up.
 
First things first...let's actually start winning some games then worry about where the fuck we are in which league.

This forum is weird at the moment. Plenty of mags pretending to be lads, lads pretending to be mags. Not too convinced about some of these new 'in peace' fans as well.

Everyone’s angry and out to get someone, focus their anger on. Human nature. Pretty sad from both sides really.
