May i say that these organisations, who appear to comprise of people full of their own importance, do not speak for me or the branch of which I am chairman. Who do they think they are demanding this and that get behind the club and give them your full support, I speak as a supporter who saw his first game in 1957 and got his first season ticket in1973.

Hilarious, you have just made a statement full of your own importance. Then go on later in the thread to advise us all of your superior intelligence.
 
Divnt ban me then!

This was from one of the minutes of meetings I seen from a branch member, roughly a few weeks before Xmas. I’m not sure if it was the one Methven was rumoured to have took the strop. Anyway, that was one of his quotes along with that our fans put a negative spin on things and turn it childlike, which has an effect on future investment. He also went on to say that there is a significant problem with Sunderland fans, and we are known in the game to be an issue and it isn’t attractive to future investors. He needs the help to tackle the “Sunderland disease”

It didn't stop them investing did it? But I do believe they were incredibly naive when they arrived and underestimated the passion that we have for the club.

We can be negative, but that "negative spin" is just really something I see online and by a relatively small percentage of the supporters. I think on the whole the fans are incredibly supportive - are we disgruntled and unhappy about being in the "3rd Division" and at the lowest point in our 100+ year history - of course we are. But if things are going well you won't find a better bunch anywhere!
 
Typical replies from people who appear to be of low intelligence and cannot string sentences together unless they are showing their ignorance, they should remember the saying" It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt". I expect they are off to schoo; now
Perfection
 
Have the Fan's groups drawn up the new owner shortlist, completed due diligence or even submitted their own business plan?

Mebbes they can run the Fooka...

I have no idea in not in them. I just think Charlie Methven is a slimy fucker with an overinflated opinion of his own intelligence

Unbelievable isn't it.
Only 3 top ten finishes in 60 years.
A dozen relegations.
Two record low Premiership points totals.
Two successive relegations.
The lowest position attained in our whole 140 year history.
Third tier crowds averaging over 30,000.
46,000 Boxing Day 2018.
Ah the Sunderland disease.
 
Not sure releasing the minutes would be the right way to go. Leave the unprofessional statements to the most professional club in League 1. But it should definitely be alluded to as to why the meeting was documented to be friendly and constructive.

For a PR bloke, he wasn’t very good at it.

I'm not going to be told what to do by some bandwagon-jumping glory hunter.

As long as you get to cosy up to the chairman marra, get your pictures for Facebook likes and get all your mates loyalty points topped up though eh?
 
I want to hear more from @Jarrowlad, this man is hilarious

"May i say that these organisations, who appear to comprise of people full of their own importance, do not speak for me or the branch of which I am chairman." Has their even been such a speedy "self-own" in the history of this website? :lol:
If he's a branch chairman he should be known on here. Surely we have Jarrow members in our midst who can confirm he is who he says he is ?

Don't insult peoples' intelligence if you can't spell check your messages.

Also as a branch chairman he is presumably represented on RAWA via at least one of the following representatives :-


A Love Supreme / Away Fan Rep / Branch Liaison Council / Disabled Supporters Group / Family Zone Rep / SMB – Pure Football Forum / The Roker End Atmosphere Group / Supporter Liaison Group / Roker Report Fansite / Wise Men Say Podcast / LGBTQ/Women Suppporters/Corporate Hospitality/Senior Citizens and SAFC Ladies.

If anyone objects to what comes out of RAWA then they need seek out their representative, it seems quite democratic to me , except that there are businesses on that list !

We are known in the game to be an issue? What issue? The same as any other fan of any other club wanting whats best for the club, or is it this 'Sunderland fans expectations are too high' myth? Seriously,,, there are other clubs whos fans expect more without the history of our club, what should our expectations be? Most fans just expect a team who can play football or at least compete... I think our only expectation or hope when we were in the PL was maybes, maybes sneak a spot in Europe somehow... if no fans are allowed any expectations (or dreams) other than this what the feck is the point in following football when only 4 or 5 teams in the UK are 'allowed' to have expectations... makes a mockery of the entire game if thats the case....
