    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Not really unforced tbf, Le Fée chased him down and put pressure on him in my opinion ... ... anyway I'll clear off as it's your transfer thread, I only came on to say MVE didn't cost you the playoffs which is a fact. All the best.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    We gifted Coventry a goal at our place when our full back completely lost his man ... ... until then our keeper didn't have a shot to save. Our second goal at Coventry wasn't an OG, and we weren't sitting on the draw. Le Fée chased your full back down and Mayenda was already running before MVE...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    It didn't cost you the playoffs which was what you claimed. "MVE was distraught when his mistake cost us the playoffs." The Ballard goal cost you the playoffs.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    "Nothing can be stated as fact. All we can do is work out from the present situation. The present situation is we still have MVE. MVE was distraught when his mistake cost us the playoffs." Quite right, that's not a fact ... ... his mistake didn't cost Coventry the playoffs. Sorry to...

    They're both dead and I'm an orphan ... ... to be fair I did kill them both but the fact remains. At least I knew who they were, I doubt you ever met yours 🤣

    Who are you, the board's self elected spokesman :rolleyes: just ignore me and post more of your tedious arse-licking of posters you're trying to impress. No, the amount of notifications appears, as a pop-up, in a little circle on the desktop icon. And they appear when someone quotes you...

    Why not fuck off and post something less boring than your usual posts, some of your lot can manage it. I've only responded because I keep getting notifications.

    I didn't miss the point, I ignored it because I was answering the question of nicknames, etc.

    Sorry but you're wrong again, we did have one. In fact we had more than one, including Black Cats, which was most commonly used in the Sunderland area for decades. We were also referred to as Mackems, which was more like slang, and Rokerites but left Roker Park in 1997 which brought about the...

    Yes our badge has changed but not on the instructions of a manager. The Black Cats nickname was voted for by the supporters. I was only responding to the poster who said it was created recently, in reality it goes back a hundred years. I like the ship badge, it was good to see it back on our...

    I wouldn't want a Sunderland manager to come in, dictate what colour we play in, what the club badge is, which song we sing or what our nickname is and then leave the club. You seem to be happy to go along with it all, fair enough.

    I didn't mean you specifically. I was in London from Friday til Monday, managed a few drinks. Been travelling this evening so just skimmed through a few pages. I'm happy to do that, there are some good posters on here ... a few idiots but which forum doesn't have them?

    Nice to meet some of you, not all, and good luck next season. It'll be much tougher for us than you but that's football these days. No reason you can't make the playoffs again and then who knows ... ... it's a lottery and our ball just happened to come out. All the best.

    Wrong. "Still, the image has long been associated with SAFC. For example in 1909 the Echo reported: “There has been a big demand for its black cat portrait, more having been disposed of than of all the players put together.” Thousands went to Newcastle for that season’s FA Cup quarter-final...

    Scumberland or Shitefield ?

    Didn't you have Hamer in midfield at the time as well? Jobe was 17yo and in an average side at that time, so no surprise , but is developing rapidly, he’s not even 30% of what he can be whereas Eccles and Kelly have reached their level imo. I doubt we’ll be able to hang onto him, he’ll be way...
