As You Were
Midfield
We are still the best club in the north east. We don’t punch horses , smash phone boxes or invade the pitch trying to get play off games postponed when we are getting beat in the derby. We have a magnificent stadium and training academy and we are putting together a team of young players who play good football. Yeah we don’t have a bottomless pit of money to spend but neither do Liverpool. Our owner seems ambitious and comes from a football background through his family. Of course I would love to see us in the champions league with big name players but not ran by a bunch of murderers. We are a club with a proud history , a working class following of miners and ship builders. One of our ex players/chairman opened a children’s ward with his spare cash. Would you really swap all that just to become the richest club in the world?
