Everyone on here knows I'm not a mag but they all know you are.

You praise Rafa and slate Ashley. Even though Ashley has gave Rafa plenty money to spend.

It's obvious you've just joined and thought I know I'll put Catts in my username as a cover.

The covers blown kidda

Benitez is in a negative net spend of around £20m since he joined. That means, theoretically, his squad is weaker to the tune of £20m worth of players than the one he inherited. It's pretty obvious to most sensible heads that Benitez is one of the game's good managers, as is backed up by his record, and Ashley is an absolute shitshow of an owner, 2 relegations supports that.

I don't get it. Ashley being a shit owner is a good thing for us. The desperation to paint him as a good owner and Rafa is a shit manager is just being pathetically contrary to anything the mags say. Hated Pardew. SMB=Pardew solid manager. Hate Ashley. SMB=good owner. Love rafa. SMB=charlatan.

What a f***ing bairn you are.

Another dirty mag infesting a Sunderland message board. Sad, sad person.
I should feel sympathy for you, but I can't be arsed.

Sooooo.....why not just fuck off back to a skunk board where you belong.
 
Trying to put this into perspective Benitez took over a squad seemingly destined for relegation. He made then difficult to beat but got them relegated (Bad but not unexpected).
He then made a significant profit in the transfer window and got them promoted as champions. (Good but not unrxpected?).
The money he made last Summer has pretty much been wiped out by the spend on mediocrity this Summer which seems to leave them with a squad destined for a relegation battle.
Overall in total pretty much zero spent and zero improvement.
4/10 for both manager and chairman.

I've not really been watching much of what they have been doing this summer. Did they really pay that much for him? Anyone know where there is a summary of what they did this summer?

We had Yedlin on loan but he was not great so we didn't sign him permanently. They bought him. Manquillo was shocking, only being a bit-part player in a team that went down bottom and they paid £4.5m for him?

To any Mags watching this thread, I really hope your club does not swoop for our talented right back Billy Jones. His tight marking, quality crosses when pushing forward and heading ability in the box would be a loss we just could not cope with.

They are dying to sign someone who has played for us and is really successful for them.I personally hope they keep up this policy.

Net spend of approx £3m per season since Ashley bought them I seen on Twitter last night. The narrative on here is that he's poured millions in

no one is denying that. they made some big money selling Wijnaldum, Sissoko and Townsend.

The FACT remains, sir rafa has spent £85m on his players.

surely rafa can't take the credit for that man? he didn't sign them. Ashley is a genius for getting £55m for two relegated players.

You seem to know a lot about the mags there you mag.

He's not a good manager though is he? He's a has been and a fraud but your lot can't have a bad word said against him.

It's obvious your a mag and your last post has confirmed that even more.

Bairn? Bet I'm a hell of a lot older than you. I imagine your teenager as your pretending to be a Sunderland fan on a Sunderland forum.

Sad as fuck

I wouldn't say Ashley gets the credit for that any more than Short gets credit for getting £30m for Pickford. I take your point though but ultimately he worked last Summer on a negative budget. If Defoe had fetched a substantial fee then Grayson would've been in a similar position to Bentiz last year and perhaps a a comparison could I be made but he's been left absolutely fucked the poor bloke.

Maybe Fat Mike is trying to do it sensibly like Burnley did and not spend too much whilst banking the TV money. Even if it means going down again to come back up stronger. Although the mags won't have that as they were expecting mid table

This is exactly what we should be doing. In regard to mid table i seriously doubt any Mag expected that.

So if you sell your players and spend less money replacing them, would you expect them to be

He's spent 85m you tit. Your just making it more and more obvious that your a mag.

The worst type of mag too pretending to support us... at least some of the mags on here don't try to pretend :oops:

You missed one out...

NUFC relegation 2015/16

He's won all that, yet he's ended up at some yo-yo club where the billionaire owner won't back him.

Doesn't that tell you something?

Why bother sticking up for a manager of our rival club though? Or is he the manager of your club?
