anyone else supporting aston villa today??? would be great to see boro and the mags go down . All the money they didnt spend on players coming back to bite them on the arse!!
I would just love it if that happened !!!http://www.pooliebunker.co.uk/newbunker/posting.php?mode=post&f=2#

I actually think borer might struggle in the championship. I can't see any of their half-decent players wanting to stay with a championship side who intrinsically are no bigger than the likes(tm) of Blackpool or Plymouth.

With all these exciting signings we haven't yet made, we might even miss them on our way up as they come down.

I'm not arsed about the mackems, mags or hull as long as boro return to their rightful home.

Oh and thanks Montpoolier for teaching me a new word today, I had to google the word intrinsically.

I don't think newcastles fans will be as loyal as people think in the championship either.

why would you want to see a north east team get relegated?

its like saying im supporting the away team in an england game! ffs get a grip, yeh ok you may not like north east teams but we live near them

Yeah, tigro, but why cloud the issue with logic?!

I might, sort of, agree with that, though I find it hard to get het up about it. People do all sorts of weird things.
However, relegation would also considerably piss off some good friends of mine who support Newcastle because it's their local team. Now I have a choice, I suppose....do I sympathise with them, who're always prepared to listen to my views however much they disagree, or do I sympathise with the fellow supporters of my own team, who fall over themselves to post abuse every time anyone dares to think differently?

You can get very sick of tribalism.

Honestly, I'm struggling to find any logic in that at all. Because you live near someone you have to have a preference for them? What on earth for?

That's true....why I don't support England

So Tigro, I expect you want Scotland to win then? And Darlow?

You must do.

But your post made no sense whatsoever.

I take Mr MJ's point, but as I understand Mr Tigro, the main point of his post isn't that he wants local teams to win, but that he doesn't understand why people automatically want other local teams to lose.

You only had to walk past the Gillan Aarms pub 5 minutes before sundays kick off to understand why we wanted the foookin godawful skunks to get neat.

I am still laughing now. And belive me, I am laughing AT them whilst I sit here at work.

Well, perhaps the Gillan Arms didn't hold a good cross section.
As I said, I know a good few Newcastle supporters who're just supporting their local team, not defining themselves as anyone's enemies or dissing anyone else.

But the Gillan Arms is a pub in hartlepool that was full of Hartlepool people wearing sKUNK SHIRTS SUPPORTING THE SKUNKS.

They werent supporting their local team.

Erm...that point has already been covered, my dear.

I'll second your !

I watched the game in the gillen arms and it was full of young lads who are newc fans, i know them and know they are from hartlepool.

they we're chanting newcastle songs at the screen.

Was a bit gay really.

So...

Buy something at gillens...

Put money in gillens pocket...

who then puts money in sunderlands pocket...
