I think the main point to take from all this is if kassam wasn't such an a**e and had built a proper ground we wouldn't be having this debate. Three stands for us, one stand for away and everyone goes home happy
I'm not sure where the responsibility lays with that, the person who started to build the ground or the person who finished it..I think the main point to take from all this is if kassam wasn't such an a**e and had built a proper ground we wouldn't be having this debate.

Just popped in to see if any updates on pubs and come across this nonsense.Very true. I'm a bit of a mug, but I was willing to see Sinner as a decent away fan. At first. Then he reverted to away fan type. 'Ooooh, we don't pretend to be a big club, but we are really and I'll keep quoting examples to prove it until you believe me.'

Works both ways. I came on here and found the posters friendly, informative and witty. It is a really good forum but then I have to tolerate the tedious w******s that come out of the woodwork and make misjudged preconceptions about me or SAFC fans in general.
I never mentioned what a big club were if you want to check, but then had to endure nonsense like - Sunderland think we are privileged to play them - Sunderland think they are a too big a club for this league - Sunderland think they will p**s the league - Sunderland aren't a big club, never been in my lifetime. I did post the Jerome Sinclair link after the last comment as found it amusing it came out at the same time. However, you constant reference to 'big club' was getting tedious and small time (minority obviously).
Sunderland are probably the most grounded fans you will meet, and many had low aspirations this season. We certainly did not think we were too good for this league. There is an ongoing pisstake by our rivals up the road because we get so excited for scoring against Walsall for example, but we do get excited when we score against Walsall. Our home and away attendances surely reflect we don't think this league is below us.
Rant over but I hate be tarred with this Billy Big Bollox crap. I will leave you all alone until we meet again or there is something interesting to discuss. I'm going to be in Oxford a lot over the coming years so will keep in touch
Now F**k Off! FTM
If you, your fan base or your chairman didn't have a 'big club' mentality then why did you all moan when you weren't given extra tickets?Just popped in to see if any updates on pubs and come across this nonsense.

And every season. And in life in general, except your daughter who seems to have broken the mould. Let me hazard an educated guess - you don't live in the working class city of Sunderland itself and your daughter didn't go to a dead end city comprehensive?Sunderland are probably the most grounded fans you will meet, and many had low aspirations this season.
All of this stuff about 3 sided ground and away allocation are ridiculous. When Erick comes on board we'll soon see a huge new stadium filled with tens of thousands of Oxford fans. The likes of Sunderland will only dream of playing us as we leapfrog past them in to the PL with Charlie crying into his coco-pops at what might have been!!!
Hello!
Why would I try to ingratiate myself. Once the season starts the posturing begins, but we were not optimistic. A few wins changed that.
The quote below summed up the feeling of the board at the beginning of the season, as the bookies had us as favourites. Our board was very pessimistic and I could give many

The post below (in thread above) highlighted the feeling of our board and challenged it.
People on here seem keen to write us off but I doubt any of the same people can give me much knowledge as to why the rest of league one will be so much better.
Truth be told is a lot of fans aren't happy with the transfer business, they aren't happy that we are not buying players and see that as we won't be able to compete in this league yet if you turn it around, I bet we have plenty of players that the top league one sides would love and they will probably look at us and think we will be up there challenging.
A few new lads in and I think the bookies and a lot of other teams fans in this league will be right.
I’ll never understand why football fans cannot cope with rival supporters near them. As long as they celebrate with a little decorum it’ll be fine. If they did, maybe we could enjoy a beer whilst watching the sport we love.
Marco gabbiadonkey wasn’t it.Remember Gabbiadini on loan for us. What a joke.
