I don't see how he can be worse than we remember? Maybe he needs the game time to get back to his best.
Yep. Like I said. Marra is a good mate - anywhere up there in Geordie or Mackem lands. A Mackem is someone from Sunderland.
Which he and his father always said. "Pay him what a footballer of his quality is worth and he will stay"
Referring to them as 'Marras' triggered them last season when they were generally being all arrogant aboot being tha most massive club in tha whirled. Of course, their vastness saw them finish below us and screw up promotion by losing at Wembley for the 37th time in a row. Hence they will always be the 'Marras' to me: it gained quite a lot of traction on here about a year or so ago, mon, ha'way, leek.
