How democratic is the SBT? Do the 4 board members decide what to do or do their ideas get voted on by the other members? If it's the former is there any point having a representative from here when the board might carry on with the same pro-council, pro-wasps, anti-SISU agenda.

In which case "come on other members, who wants to go against Grendel to be on the SBT?" It's easy enough to pass comment on someone willing to stand so there should be at least 1 of those against Grendel man enough to put themselves forward.

Shouldn't the election of that person be voted for on here or at least we chose the member on here to go on the ballot paper?

I have been to watch Newcastle loads of time with my mate and they always sing that, it was especially intimidating at Notts Forest during the miners strike and at WBA when both times we were kept in by a corden of police and the Geordies were in their faces singing it

Eire but before he managed us

According to Wikipedia Frank O'Farrell managed Iran after leaving Man Utd, surprised you'd forgotten that too!!

Does Aidy Boothroyd count?

Did Terry Butcher have a go as well?

Didn't Peter Reid manage Thailand or something like that?

… not to mention that it didn't cost us promotion as we were promoted last season and this alleged interest was the beginning of last season

That is not a skill unique to your wife. Mine does the same but that is just a minor annoyance compared to her starting to talk to me when she is not in the same room as me, sometimes not even on the same floor. I have finally decided to just never answer her which can in turn make her think...

He had just come back from injury and was very good for us while on loan & we wanted to loan him for another month but Wolves bought him instead. I think he had another injury at Wolves but really impressed when he subsequently joined Southampton. Robertson on the other hand was highly rated at...

Phil Neal. He fucked about whether to sign Chris Marsden so plumped for Robertson instead. Cyrille Regis was so disillusioned playing for Mackay that he wanted to leave until Sillett came along and the rest is history

Swansea's old ground is now a council owned communal allotment so I'm guessing they didn't sell it so would have made no money from that. Didn't the sale of HR pay off some of the debt to the likes of McGinnity & Robinson?

I think mackem refers to them making things and is just the Geordies saying that they make them. I am sure there is a phrase in Geordie which is "you mackem and we'll tackem"

As well as for the sporting aspect I like events where the atmosphere consumes the place it is at. I have been to the Dutch TT (now MotoGP) at Assen a couple of times where 250,000 people converge on a town with a population of 70,000 and the town has a big street party the night before. I am...

Can't see it, he was so unpopular last time I know a few Scots were happy to lose so they would get rid of him

I'm gutted, I thought he was doing an excellent job!!

What a c**t! Sky Blue Trust, not fit for purpose since the day it was formed

I have a Sunderland supporting friend who came to White Hart Lane with me in 1997 when we relegated them and Middlesboro and he has no animosity towards us at all. In 1995-1998 I worked in Southend with a Sunderland season ticket holder and I went to watch Sunderland play at Southend with him &...
