In both towns there is basically f*** all else to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 This sissoko saga seems to be benefiting us, Newcastle pricing him out of a move, player unhappy. Hopefully drags on to deadline day and they struggle to find a replacement. No idea why they just don't sell at 25m that still be a fantastic deal for them and more beneficial as gives them more time to find a replacement.

Their support is fantastic, but there's a very logical reason why it is. Yes but,you are forgetting to account for the difference in population density of the two areas. The midlands can support a lot of teams because it has a huge population. The northeast has a relatively tiny pool of supporters to draw from. It might be a large area when looking on a map but there are a lot less people up to draw support from there then there is in the midlands. Their support is more impressive than ours but there is no shame in acknowledging it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their support is more impressive than ours but there is no shame in acknowledging it. Something I am envious of is the fact that they don't seem to have any (or very few) glory hunters/plastic fans. A large percentage of our potential fan base is lost to Brummie reds (who I respect less than SHA fans). It seems if you're from Newcastle, you support Newcastle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted August 17, 2016 Moderator Share Posted August 17, 2016 Must say I'm taking great pride in our club over my baseless assumption that Newcastle fans must in some small way be quietly impressed with the deals that we've been doing since going down, and how both clubs in general have applied themselves to their new reality. We were supposed to keep going whereas they were supposed to sweep all before them. Pride in your club. It's a strange feeling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
