Their fan Spender who's posted on here this season has been exceptionally graceful. I'm sure he represents the majority. They, like any forum, have a percentage of absolute f***wits though. As for Morpeth Mackem, he's got the brain and maturity of a 13 year old. I'd love to stick him in his own parallel universe where Sunderland get shafted by "the likes of" Fleetwood and Accrington every week.........oh hang on
Seems odd for a NU fan to wind them up by unleashing a barrage of abuse at us. Mind you the whole alter ego, WUM stuff leaves me totally perplexed anyway. I just don't get what folk get out of anything so pathetic. Either way, morpethmackem.....yer a prat.
I have to say it. My brother in law who supports them, phoned last night to convey his heartiest and most genuine congratulations. He's a great lad and is loved and respected by every member of our family. Wor' John is a " gent" and a sound bloke in every sense of the word, even if he keeps referring to my Sis as " Kath Man."
Most Sunderland fans come from a not too dissimilar working- class background to most Barnsley fans. Most have a sense of community which is generated by a love for their proud club, just like Barnsley. And, just like Barnsley, there are some complete idiots who post drivel. However, we should show a bit of courtesy and respect for football fans who in many respects are just like us.
He's no Mackem. He's just a naughty boy who is attempting to humiliate them by mightily exaggerating the 'tinpot' nature of barnsley fc. He's just signed up on that forum and has posted over 50 times in a couple of days.
Congratulations lads and lasses, a fantastic achievement for you and I hope you go on to win the league. We still have a shot via the playoffs but we all get what we deserve in the end.
This. There are a number of people on our message board who do this. When they are outed I stick them on ignore.
They've got a Wembley hoodoo to overcome. They've lost their last seven there. It looks like they exhausted all their luck in 73.
